<h3>Mozhi (spelt moḻi) is an alternative-frontend for many translation engines.</h3>
</div>
It was initially made as a maintained fork/rewrite of [simplytranslate](https://codeberg.org/SimpleWeb/SimplyTranslate-Web), but has grown to have a lot more features as well!
I'm initially focusing on the api and engines, but eventually Mozhi will have a functioning CLI and webapp.
## Supported Engines:
- Google
- Reverso
- DeepL
- LibreTranslate
- Yandex
- IBM Watson
- MyMemory
- DuckDuckGo (almost 1-1 with Bing Translate)
## Where is the engine code?
The engine code has recently been split from the main codebase. Please check [aryak/libmozhi](https://codeberg.org/aryak/libmozhi) for it.
## Installing
You can either use [docker](https://codeberg.org/aryak/mozhi/src/branch/master/compose.yml) or the build artifacts from [CI jobs on git.projectsegfau.lt](https://git.projectsegfau.lt/arya/mozhi/actions).
## Building
```
GOPRIVATE=codeberg.org/aryak/libmozhi # Get latest commit since proxy server is a bit slow
go mod download
go run github.com/swaggo/swag/cmd/swag@latest init --parseDependency
go build -o mozhi
```
## API Docs
Mozhi makes use of swagger (using the fiber middleware) to manage the documentation of the API.
You can find it in /api/swagger of any instance ([example](https://mozhi.aryak.me/api/swagger/index.html)).
## Why does Reverso not work?
Reverso sometimes blocks IPs of servers hosting mozhi, and since it doesn't have IPv6, an IP Rotator won't be viable. For more information, check out [#27](https://codeberg.org/aryak/mozhi/issues/27)
## Configuration
Features of Mozhi can be customized and toggled on/off using Environment Variables.
- `MOZHI_PORT`: Port the webserver listens on (if hosting API)
- `MOZHI_LIBRETRANSLATE_URL`: URL of Libretranslate instance (Example: `MOZHI_LIBRETRANSLATE_URL=https://lt.psf.lt`)
- `MOZHI_DEFAULT_SOURCE_LANG`: Language to default to if no source language is set by user. Defaults to Auto-Detect (or first available language in engines which dont support it)
- `MOZHI_DEFAULT_TARGET_LANG`: Language to default to if no target language is set by user. Defaults to English
These envvars turn off/on engines. By default all of them are enabled.
- `MOZHI_GOOGLE_ENABLED`
- `MOZHI_REVERSO_ENABLED`
- `MOZHI_DEEPL_ENABLED`
- `MOZHI_LIBRETRANSLATE_ENABLED`
- `MOZHI_YANDEX_ENABLED`
- `MOZHI_WATSON_ENABLED`
- `MOZHI_MYMEMORY_ENABLED`
- `MOZHI_DUCKDUCKGO_ENABLED`

## Features
- An all mode where the responses of all supported engines will be shown.
- Autodetect which will show the language that was detected
- Text-To-Speech for multiple engines
- A good API (subjective :P)
- All the stuff you expect from a translation utility :)
## Etymology
Mozhi is the word in Tamil for language. Simple as that :P
