AI interpretation — verify before relying

AI-generated interpretation of the package facts above; every digit, version, license, or vulnerability id it cites is grounded in the facts already shown on this page

This package provides a Python client library for Google Cloud Translation, enabling you to integrate machine translation capabilities into applications by calling the Google Cloud Translation API.

Installation is straightforward with low friction—the package ships as a pure-Python wheel and depends on well-maintained Google Cloud libraries (google-api-core, google-auth, google-cloud-core, grpcio, proto-plus, protobuf, grpc-google-iam-v1). The project is actively maintained with a recent release 52 days ago and an active repository.

Licensed under Apache-2.0 (permissive), which allows commercial and private use with minimal restrictions—you need only include a copy of the license and state significant changes.

Usage

pip install google-cloud-translate

from google.cloud import translate_v3

client = translate_v3.TranslationServiceClient()
result = client.translate_text(request={"parent": "projects/PROJECT_ID", "contents": ["Hello"], "target_language_code": "es"})

Requires Python >= 3.10; you must have a Google Cloud project with the Translation API enabled and valid authentication credentials configured (via GOOGLE_APPLICATION_CREDENTIALS or Application Default Credentials).

Verdict: A stable, actively maintained client library for Google Cloud Translation with low install friction and permissive licensing. It is suitable for production use if you have a Google Cloud project set up and authentication in place. No known vulnerabilities as of the fact sheet date.

Needs verification

Whether the package requires additional system dependencies beyond Python and the listed PyPI packages
Specific API quota limits or rate-limiting behavior that might affect production deployments
Whether offline translation or caching is supported, or if all requests must hit the Google Cloud API
