Official Python library for interfacing with the Gengo API.

Project description

[![Build Status](https://secure.travis-ci.org/gengo/gengo-python.png)](http://travis-ci.org/gengo/gengo-python)

Gengo Python Library (for the [Gengo API](http://gengo.com/api/))
======================================================================================================================================================
Translating your tools and products helps people all over the world access them; this is, of course, a
somewhat tricky problem to solve. **[Gengo](http://gengo.com/)** is a service that offers human-translation
(which is often of higher quality than machine translation), and an API to manage sending in work and watching
jobs. This is a Python interface to make using the API simpler.

Installation & Requirements
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Installing this library using pip is very simple:

pip install gengo

Otherwise, you can install from source by getting the repo:

git clone git://github.com/gengo/gengo-python.git

And then installing the library:

python setup.py install

This will also install the `requests` package. If you're running on a version of Python prior to 2.6, you'll need to install simplejson as well:

pip install simplejson


Tests - Running Them, etc
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Gengo has a full suite of unit tests. To run them, make sure you have the `mock` library installed, and then simply run:

python setup.py test

If you wish to run a single test, such as TestTranslationJobFlowFileUpload:

python -m unittest -v gengo.tests.TestTranslationJobFlowFileUpload

Documentation
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Full documentation can be found [here](http://developers.gengo.com), but anyone should be able to get a working script with the following:

```python
from gengo import Gengo

gengo = Gengo(
public_key='your_public_key',
private_key='your_private_key',
sandbox=True,
)

print gengo.getAccountBalance()
```

All function definitions can be found inside gengo/mockdb.py as a dictionary: the key of the dictionary entry is the function name, and the parameters
are exactly the same as specified in the [Gengo API docs](http://developers.gengo.com).
