Free and Open Source Machine Translation API, entirely self-hosted. Unlike other APIs, it doesn't rely on proprietary providers such as Google or Azure to perform translations. Instead, its translation engine is powered by the open source [Argos Translate](https://github.com/argosopentech/argos-translate) library.

## Install and Run

You can run your own API server with just a few lines of setup!

Make sure you have Python installed (3.8 or higher is recommended), then simply run:

```bash
pip install libretranslate
libretranslate [args]
```

Then open a web browser to http://localhost:5000

On Ubuntu 20.04 you can also use the install script available at https://github.com/argosopentech/LibreTranslate-init

## Build and Run

If you want to make changes to the code, you can build from source, and run the API:

```bash
git clone https://github.com/LibreTranslate/LibreTranslate
cd LibreTranslate
pip install -e .
libretranslate [args]

# Or
python main.py [args]
```

Then open a web browser to http://localhost:5000

### Run with Docker

Linux/MacOS: `./run.sh [args]`
Windows: `run.bat [args]`

Then open a web browser to http://localhost:5000


### Build with Docker

```bash
docker build [--build-arg with_models=true] -t libretranslate .
```

If you want to run the Docker image in a complete offline environment, you need to add the `--build-arg with_models=true` parameter. Then the language models are downloaded during the build process of the image. Otherwise these models get downloaded on the first run of the image/container.

Run the built image:

```bash
docker run -it -p 5000:5000 libretranslate [args]
```

Or build and run using `docker-compose`:

```bash
docker-compose up -d --build
```

> Feel free to change the [`docker-compose.yml`](https://github.com/LibreTranslate/LibreTranslate/blob/main/docker-compose.yml) file to adapt it to your deployment needs, or use an extra `docker-compose.prod.yml` file for your deployment configuration.

> The models are stored inside the container under `/home/libretranslate/.local/share` and `/home/libretranslate/.local/cache`. Feel free to use volumes if you do not want to redownload the models when the container is destroyed. To update the models, use the `--update-models` argument.

### CUDA

You can use hardware acceleration to speed up translations on a GPU machine with CUDA 11.2 and [nvidia-docker](https://docs.nvidia.com/datacenter/cloud-native/container-toolkit/install-guide.html) installed.

Run this version with:

```bash
docker-compose -f docker-compose.cuda.yml up -d --build
```

Note that each argument has an equivalent environment variable that can be used instead. The env. variables overwrite the default values but have lower priority than the command arguments and are particularly useful if used with Docker. The environment variable names are the upper-snake-case of the equivalent command argument's name with a `LT` prefix.

## Update

### Software

If you installed with pip:

`pip install -U libretranslate`

If you're using docker:

`docker pull libretranslate/libretranslate`

### Language Models

Start the program with the `--update-models` argument. For example: `libretranslate --update-models` or `./run.sh --update-models`.

Alternatively you can also run the `install_models.py` script.

## Run with WSGI and Gunicorn

```
pip install gunicorn
gunicorn --bind 0.0.0.0:5000 'wsgi:app'
```

You can pass application arguments directly to Gunicorn via:


```
gunicorn --bind 0.0.0.0:5000 'wsgi:app(api_keys=True)'
```

## Run with Kubernetes

See ["LibreTranslate: your own translation service on Kubernetes" by JM Robles](https://jmrobles.medium.com/libretranslate-your-own-translation-service-on-kubernetes-b46c3e1af630)

## Manage API Keys

LibreTranslate supports per-user limit quotas, e.g. you can issue API keys to users so that they can enjoy higher requests limits per minute (if you also set `--req-limit`). By default all users are rate-limited based on `--req-limit`, but passing an optional `api_key` parameter to the REST endpoints allows a user to enjoy higher request limits.

To use API keys simply start LibreTranslate with the `--api-keys` option. If you modified the API keys database path with the option `--api-keys-db-path`, you must specify the path with the same argument flag when using the `ltmanage keys` command. 

### Add New Keys

To issue a new API key with 120 requests per minute limits:

```bash
ltmanage keys add 120
```

If you changed the API keys database path:
```bash
ltmanage keys --api-keys-db-path path/to/db/dbName.db add 120
```

### Remove Keys

```bash
ltmanage keys remove <api-key>
```

### View Keys

```bash
ltmanage keys
```

## Prometheus Metrics

LibreTranslate has Prometheus [exporter](https://prometheus.io/docs/instrumenting/exporters/) capabilities when you pass the `--metrics` argument at startup (disabled by default). When metrics are enabled, a `/metrics` endpoint is mounted on the instance:

http://localhost:5000/metrics

```
# HELP libretranslate_http_requests_in_flight Multiprocess metric
# TYPE libretranslate_http_requests_in_flight gauge
libretranslate_http_requests_in_flight{api_key="",endpoint="/translate",request_ip="127.0.0.1"} 0.0
# HELP libretranslate_http_request_duration_seconds Multiprocess metric
# TYPE libretranslate_http_request_duration_seconds summary
libretranslate_http_request_duration_seconds_count{api_key="",endpoint="/translate",request_ip="127.0.0.1",status="200"} 0.0
libretranslate_http_request_duration_seconds_sum{api_key="",endpoint="/translate",request_ip="127.0.0.1",status="200"} 0.0
```

You can then configure `prometheus.yml` to read the metrics:

```
scrape_configs:
  - job_name: "libretranslate"
    
    # Needed only if you use --metrics-auth-token
    #authorization:
      #credentials: "mytoken"
    
    static_configs:
      - targets: ["localhost:5000"]
```

To secure the `/metrics` endpoint you can also use `--metrics-auth-token mytoken`.

If you use Gunicorn, make sure to create a directory for storing multiprocess data metrics and set `PROMETHEUS_MULTIPROC_DIR`:

```
mkdir -p /tmp/prometheus_data
rm /tmp/prometheus_data/*
export PROMETHEUS_MULTIPROC_DIR=/tmp/prometheus_data 
gunicorn -c gunicorn_conf.py --bind 0.0.0.0:5000 'wsgi:app(metrics=True)' 
```

## Adding New Language Models

To add new languages you first need to train an Argos Translate model. See [this video](https://odysee.com/@argosopentech:7/training-an-Argos-Translate-model-tutorial-2022:2?r=DMnK7NqdPNHRCfwhmKY9LPow3PqVUUgw) for details.

First you need to collect data, for example from [Opus](http://opus.nlpl.eu/), then you need to add the data to [data-index.json](https://github.com/argosopentech/argos-train/blob/master/data-index.json) in the [Argos Train](https://github.com/argosopentech/argos-train) repo.

## Localization

The LibreTranslate Web UI is available in all the languages for which LibreTranslate can translate to. It can also (roughly) [translate itself!](https://github.com/LibreTranslate/LibreTranslate/blob/main/update_locales.py) Some languages might not appear in the UI since they haven't been reviewed by a human yet. You can enable all languages by turning on `--debug` mode.

To help improve or review the UI translations:
 - Go to https://hosted.weblate.org/projects/libretranslate/app/#translations. All changes are automatically pushed to this repository.
 - Once all strings have been reviewed/edited, open a pull request and change `libretranslate/locales/{code}/meta.json`:

 ```json
{
	"name": "<Language>",
	"reviewed": true <-- Change this from false to true
}
 ```

## FAQ

### Can I use your API server at libretranslate.com for my application in production?

In short, no. [You need to buy an API key](https://portal.libretranslate.com). You can always run LibreTranslate for free on your own server of course.

### Can I use LibreTranslate behind a reverse proxy, like Apache2 or Caddy?

Yes, here are config examples for Apache2 and Caddy that redirect a subdomain (with HTTPS certificate) to LibreTranslate running on a docker at localhost. 
```
sudo docker run -ti --rm -p 127.0.0.1:5000:5000 libretranslate/libretranslate
```
You can remove `127.0.0.1` on the above command if you want to be able to access it from `domain.tld:5000`, in addition to `subdomain.domain.tld` (this can be helpful to determine if there is an issue with Apache2 or the docker container). 

Add `--restart unless-stopped` if you want this docker to start on boot, unless manually stopped.

Replace [YOUR_DOMAIN] with your full domain; for example, `translate.domain.tld` or `libretranslate.domain.tld`. 

Remove `#` on the ErrorLog and CustomLog lines to log requests.

```ApacheConf
#Libretranslate

#Redirect http to https
<VirtualHost *:80>
    ServerName http://[YOUR_DOMAIN]
    Redirect / https://[YOUR_DOMAIN]
    # ErrorLog ${APACHE_LOG_DIR}/error.log
    # CustomLog ${APACHE_LOG_DIR}/tr-access.log combined
 </VirtualHost>

#https
<VirtualHost *:443>
    ServerName https://[YOUR_DOMAIN]
    
    ProxyPass / http://127.0.0.1:5000/
    ProxyPassReverse / http://127.0.0.1:5000/
    ProxyPreserveHost On
   
    SSLEngine on
    SSLCertificateFile /etc/letsencrypt/live/[YOUR_DOMAIN]/fullchain.pem
    SSLCertificateKeyFile /etc/letsencrypt/live/[YOUR_DOMAIN]/privkey.pem
    SSLCertificateChainFile /etc/letsencrypt/live/[YOUR_DOMAIN]/fullchain.pem
    
    # ErrorLog ${APACHE_LOG_DIR}/tr-error.log
    # CustomLog ${APACHE_LOG_DIR}/tr-access.log combined
</VirtualHost>
```

Add this to an existing site config, or a new file in `/etc/apache2/sites-available/new-site.conf` and run `sudo a2ensite new-site.conf`. 

To get a HTTPS subdomain certificate, install `certbot` (snap), run `sudo certbot certonly --manual --preferred-challenges dns` and enter your information (with `subdomain.domain.tld` as the domain). Add a DNS TXT record with your domain registrar when asked. This will save your certificate and key to `/etc/letsencrypt/live/{subdomain.domain.tld}/`. Alternatively, comment the SSL lines out if you don't want to use HTTPS.

<details>
<summary>Caddy config</summary>
<br>

Replace [YOUR_DOMAIN] with your full domain; for example, `translate.domain.tld` or `libretranslate.domain.tld`.

```Caddyfile
#Libretranslate
[YOUR_DOMAIN] {
  reverse_proxy localhost:5000
}
```

Add this to an existing Caddyfile or save it as `Caddyfile` in any directory and run `sudo caddy reload` in that same directory.
