Usage

From automatic language detection to English:

const translate = require('google-cn-translate-api');
 
translate('Ik spreek Engels', {to: 'en', proxy: {host: host, port: port}}).then(res => {
    console.log(res.text);
    //=> I speak English
    console.log(res.from.language.iso);
    //=> nl
}).catch(err => {
    console.error(err);
});

From English to Dutch with a typo:

translate('I spea Dutch!', {from: 'en', to: 'nl', proxy: {host: host, port: port}}).then(res => {
    console.log(res.text);
    //=> Ik spreek Nederlands!
    console.log(res.from.text.autoCorrected);
    //=> true
    console.log(res.from.text.value);
    //=> I [speak] Dutch!
    console.log(res.from.text.didYouMean);
    //=> false
}).catch(err => {
    console.error(err);
});

Sometimes, the API will not use the auto corrected text in the translation:

translate('I spea Dutch!', {from: 'en', to: 'nl', proxy: {host: host, port: port}}).then(res => {
    console.log(res);
    console.log(res.text);
    //=> Ik spea Nederlands!
    console.log(res.from.text.autoCorrected);
    //=> false
    console.log(res.from.text.value);
    //=> I [speak] Dutch!
    console.log(res.from.text.didYouMean);
    //=> true
}).catch(err => {
    console.error(err);
});
