Microsoft Translator has moved and now requires new API

Can you add translation service https://tech.yandex.com/translate/ yandex? while it's free since the microsoft service is no longer free they offer 30 days free but you need to put in credit card in order to activate it.

Microsoft Translator has moved and now requires new API.

Here's the new code from a blog site

class BingTranslator {
    
    private $azure_key = "<< ENTER KEY1 >>";  // !!! TODO: key1 here !!!
   
  
    // Get the AZURE token
    function getToken($azure_key)
    {
        $url = 'https://api.cognitive.microsoft.com/sts/v1.0/issueToken';
        $ch = curl_init();
        $data_string = json_encode('{body}');
        curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS, $data_string);
        curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_HTTPHEADER, array(
                'Content-Type: application/json',
                'Content-Length: ' . strlen($data_string),
                'Ocp-Apim-Subscription-Key: ' . $azure_key
            )
        );
        curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_URL, $url);
        curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_HEADER, false);
        curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, TRUE);
        $strResponse = curl_exec($ch);
        curl_close($ch);
        return $strResponse;
    }
    
    // Request the translation
    function curlRequest($url)
    {
        $ch = curl_init();
        curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_URL, $url);
        curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_HTTPHEADER, "Content-Type: text/xml");
        curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, TRUE);
        curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_SSL_VERIFYPEER, False);
        $curlResponse = curl_exec($ch);
        curl_close($ch);
        return $curlResponse;
    }
 
    public function getTranslation($fromLanguage, $toLanguage, $text) {
        $accessToken = $this->getToken($this->azure_key);
        $params = "text=" . urlencode($text) . "&to=" . $toLanguage . "&from=" . $fromLanguage . "&appId=Bearer+" . $accessToken;
        $translateUrl = "http://api.microsofttranslator.com/v2/Http.svc/Translate?$params";
        $curlResponse = $this->curlRequest($translateUrl);
        $translatedStr = simplexml_load_string($curlResponse);
        return $translatedStr;
    }
 
    
}

Please store this code under the name translate.class.php

The following code uses the class and provides the translation:

require_once('translate.class.php');
$BingTranslator = new BingTranslator();
$translation = $BingTranslator->getTranslation('en', 'de', 'What time does the hotel close in the evening?');
echo $translation;

Thanks PeopleInside

Here is the Yandex api i found from github

use Yandex\Translate\Translator;
use Yandex\Translate\Exception;

try {
  $translator = new Translator($key);
  $translation = $translator->translate('Hello world', 'en-ru');

  echo $translation; // Привет мир

  echo $translation->getSource(); // Hello world;

  echo $translator->detect("Привет мир"); //ru

  echo $translation->getSourceLanguage(); // en
  echo $translation->getResultLanguage(); // ru
} catch (Exception $e) {
  // handle exception
}
