Overview

About

Maintained by David ZumbachCRAN page ↗GitHub ↗Website ↗Issues ↗

A wrapper for the 'DeepL' API https://developers.deepl.com/docs, a web service for translating texts between different languages. A DeepL API developer account is required to use the service (see https://www.deepl.com/pro#developer).

Changes in 2.1.0

Glossary Management Support:
create_glossary() – Create custom glossaries
list_glossaries() – List existing glossaries and their metadata
get_glossary_entries() – Retrieve glossary entries as a tibble
delete_glossary() – Permanently delete a glossary
Enhanced Translation Flexibility:
context – Provide contextual information to improve translations
model_type – Choose between latency-optimized or quality-optimized translation models
formality – Adjust formality level for supported target languages
glossary_id – Apply a specific glossary to translations
Improved Authentication Handling:
Your DeepL API authentication key is now read automatically from the environment variable DEEPL_API_KEY, if not supplied directly. You can set it using Sys.setenv(DEEPL_API_KEY = "your_key") or add it to your .Renviron file for persistent use.

Install

R (CRAN)pak (dev)Ubuntu (r2u)Fedora (COPR)openSUSE (OBS)

install.packages("deeplr", repos = "https://cloud.r-project.org/")

Installs the current CRAN release. Prebuilt binaries on Windows and macOS.

if (!requireNamespace("pak", quietly = TRUE))
  install.packages("pak", repos = "https://cloud.r-project.org/")
pak::pak("zumbov2/deeplr")

Development version from zumbov2/deeplr. Installs pak first if it is not already available.

Release

# enable cranapt (r2u) if it is not already set up, then install
grep -rqs r2u.stat.illinois.edu /etc/apt/sources.list /etc/apt/sources.list.d/ \
  || curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/eddelbuettel/r2u/master/inst/scripts/add_cranapt_noble.sh | sudo bash
sudo apt install -y r-cran-deeplr

Fast Ubuntu binaries via r2u (no compilation). The cranapt setup runs once and is skipped when it is already enabled. We list this channel from recorded r2u download activity rather than from a live index of the repository, so treat it as last known rather than guaranteed.

bspm (used by r2u) also needs make: sudo apt install make

# enable the iucar/cran COPR if it is not already present, then install
ls /etc/yum.repos.d/*iucar*cran*.repo >/dev/null 2>&1 \
  || sudo dnf copr enable -y iucar/cran
sudo dnf install -y R-CRAN-deeplr

RPMs from the iucar/cran COPR, rebuilt from CRAN.

For install.packages() integration in R, also: sudo dnf install R-CoprManager

# add the autoCRAN OBS repo (Tumbleweed) if it is missing, then install
zypper -q lr | grep -qi autoCRAN \
  || sudo zypper addrepo https://download.opensuse.org/repositories/devel:/languages:/R:/autoCRAN/openSUSE_Tumbleweed/devel:languages:R:autoCRAN.repo
sudo zypper install -y R-deeplr

RPMs auto-built from CRAN on openSUSE OBS (Tumbleweed). We list this channel from recorded autoCRAN download activity rather than from a live index of the repository, so treat it as last known rather than guaranteed.
