Configuration

To get started all you need to do is to instantiate a LibreTranslate object after configuring the application:

.. code-block:: python

from quart import Quart from quart_babel import LibreTranslate

app = Quart(__name__) app.config.from_pyfile(‘mysettings.cfg’) translator = LibreTranslate(app)

You can also use the factory method of initializing extensions:

translator.init_app(app)

The LibreTranslate object itself can be used to to change some internal defaults.

Configuration Variables

Variable	Type	Default	Description
LIBRETRANSLATE_URL	str	N/A	The url to LibreTranslate. This must be provided and if it is not the extension will raise a ValueError.
LIBRETRANSLATE_API_KEY	str	None	The api key for LibreTranslate. This should not be needed for local installations.
