Running the bot

The script is meant to be used primarily as a Discord bot. To start the bot, make sure you have properly set up the dc_secrets.py file, then run the following command:

python main.py

The script can also translate text in the console. To do so, run the following command:

python main.py --no-bot <language code> <message>

A target language code must be specified.

Example

python main.py --no-bot DE "Hello, world!"
Lang: DE
Message: Hello, world!
Hallo Welt!
