Code Example

Here's a simple Swift code example demonstrating how to use the Enhanced Cloud Translation API:

import Foundation

let apiKey = "YOUR_API_KEY"
let url = URL(string: "https://translation.googleapis.com/language/translate/v2")!

var request = URLRequest(url: url)
request.httpMethod = "POST"
request.setValue("application/json", forHTTPHeaderField: "Content-Type")

let parameters: [String: Any] = [
    "q": "Hello, world!",
    "target": "es",
    "key": apiKey
]

do {
    request.httpBody = try JSONSerialization.data(withJSONObject: parameters, options: [])
} catch {
    print("Error serializing JSON: \(error)")
}

let task = URLSession.shared.dataTask(with: request) { data, response, error in
    if let error = error {
        print("Error: \(error)")
        return
    }
    
    guard let data = data else {
        print("No data received.")
        return
    }
    
    do {
        if let json = try JSONSerialization.jsonObject(with: data, options: []) as? [String: Any],
           let translations = json["data"] as? [String: Any],
           let translatedText = translations["translations"] as? [[String: Any]],
           let text = translatedText.first?["translatedText"] as? String {
            print("Translated text: \(text)")
        }
    } catch {
        print("Error parsing JSON: \(error)")
    }
}

task.resume()
