Setting up the DeepL Translate API
This API is the fifth translate API supported by WorldwideChat. While not having the capability to be locally hosted like Libre Translate, many argue that this service is one of the most accurate and free translators out there.
Setting up this API is extremely easy. First, create an account at deepl.com.
Next, click on the API tab when greeted with this page on login:
Afterwards, click on the Sign up for free
button and enter any necessary information (see picture below). Note that the free API will not charge your credit card on file; upgrading to the Pro version will, however.
Finally, go to this page in the account tab, under summary. Scrolling down will give you the API key you need for this plugin:
Once you've obtained this API key, you can move on to enabling the translator with /wwcc.
If you do not want to use /wwcc, you can add these values manually:
Go to the WorldwideChat plugin folder on your Minecraft server, and open config.yml
.
Scroll down to this section:
useDeepLTranslate: true
deepLAPIKey:
(<---- Paste your DeepL API key one space after the colon.)
Make sure that ONLY useDeepLTranslate
is set to true
. Multiple translators cannot be enabled.
And finally, restart your Minecraft server or reload the plugin.
