Formeler SDK for Javascript
npm install formelerFirst, please check the documentation (https://formeler.com/lang-id/doc/) page to familiarize yourself with the basics of the API.
Install the Formeler module using npm:
``bash`
npm install formeler
The Formeler class initializes the connection to the Formeler server. To get started, create a new instance of Formeler and pass your API key as the first argument to the constructor. You can obtain a fresh API key from the website that includes 10M tokens of free credit.`js`
import {Formeler} from "formeler";
const formeler = new Formeler("YOUR-API-KEY");
Once initialized, you can use the available Formeler methods. Currently, language detection via the LangID module is supported. Below are examples of how to use the LangID methods.
`js`
try {
const result = await formeler.langID.detect("Dies ist ein Test");
console.log(result);
} catch (error) {
console.log("Something went wrong: ", error);
}
If the API call is successful, the variable will contain the following JSON response:`json`
{
"result": "success",
"language": "de",
"tokenCount": "4"
}$3
`js`
try {
const result = await formeler.langID.batchDetect(["This is a test.", "Dies ist ein Test"]);
console.log(result);
} catch (error) {
console.log("Something went wrong: ", error);
}
If the API call is successful, the variable will contain the following JSON response:`json`
{
"result": "success",
"languages": [
"en",
"de"
],
"tokenCount": "8"
}$3
You can find additional examples in the examples directory of this repository.
Two types of errors may occur when calling SDK methods:
If a network issue arises, the call will throw an error that you can catch using a try/catch block.
The Formeler API may return an error in the response. You can identify these by checking the result field in the returned object.`
An error response will follow this structure:json``
{
"result": "failed",
"message": "unauthorized"
}
This package includes TypeScript declarations for the Formeler SDK.
