AWS Translate

Since Camel 3.1

Only producer is supported

The AWS2 Translate component supports translate a text in multiple languages. AWS Translate clusters instances.

Prerequisites

You must have a valid Amazon Web Services developer account, and be signed up to use Amazon Translate. More information is available at Amazon Translate.

The AWS2 Translate component is not supported in OSGI

URI Format

aws2-translate://label[?options]

You can append query options to the URI in the following format, ?options=value&option2=value&…​

URI Options

The AWS Translate component supports 19 options, which are listed below.

Name Description Default Type

autodetectSourceLanguage (producer)

Being able to autodetect the source language

false

boolean

configuration (producer)

Component configuration

Translate2Configuration

lazyStartProducer (producer)

Whether the producer should be started lazy (on the first message). By starting lazy you can use this to allow CamelContext and routes to startup in situations where a producer may otherwise fail during starting and cause the route to fail being started. By deferring this startup to be lazy then the startup failure can be handled during routing messages via Camel’s routing error handlers. Beware that when the first message is processed then creating and starting the producer may take a little time and prolong the total processing time of the processing.

false

boolean

operation (producer)

Required The operation to perform. There are 1 enums and the value can be one of: translateText

translateText

Translate2Operations

overrideEndpoint (producer)

Set the need for overidding the endpoint. This option needs to be used in combination with uriEndpointOverride option

Integer

To define a proxy protocol when instantiating the Translate client. There are 2 enums and the value can be one of: HTTP, HTTPS

HTTPS

Protocol

region (producer)

The region in which Translate client needs to work. When using this parameter, the configuration will expect the lowercase name of the region (for example ap-east-1) You’ll need to use the name Region.EU_WEST_1.id()

String

Autowired To use a existing configured AWS Translate as client

String

useDefaultCredentialsProvider (producer)

Set whether the Translate client should expect to load credentials through a default credentials provider or to expect static credentials to be passed in.

false

boolean

autowiredEnabled (advanced)

Whether autowiring is enabled. This is used for automatic autowiring options (the option must be marked as autowired) by looking up in the registry to find if there is a single instance of matching type, which then gets configured on the component. This can be used for automatic configuring JDBC data sources, JMS connection factories, AWS Clients, etc.

true

The AWS Translate endpoint is configured using URI syntax:

Usage

Static credentials vs Default Credential Provider

You have the possibility of avoiding the usage of explicit static credentials, by specifying the useDefaultCredentialsProvider option and set it to true.

  • Java system properties - aws.accessKeyId and aws.secretKey

  • Environment variables - AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID and AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY.

  • Web Identity Token from AWS STS.

  • The shared credentials and config files.

  • Amazon ECS container credentials - loaded from the Amazon ECS if the environment variable AWS_CONTAINER_CREDENTIALS_RELATIVE_URI is set.

  • Amazon EC2 Instance profile credentials.

Message headers evaluated by the Translate producer

Header Type Description

CamelAwsTranslateSourceLanguage

String

The text source language

CamelAwsTranslateTargetLanguage

String

The text target language

CamelAwsTranslateTerminologyNames

String

The terminologies to use

CamelAwsTranslateOperation

String

The operation to perform

Translate Producer operations

Camel-AWS Translate component provides the following operation on the producer side:

  • translateText

Translate Text example

from("direct:start")
  .setHeader(TranslateConstants.SOURCE_LANGUAGE, TranslateLanguageEnum.ITALIAN)
  .setHeader(TranslateConstants.TARGET_LANGUAGE, TranslateLanguageEnum.GERMAN)
  .setBody("Ciao")
  .to("aws2-translate://test?translateClient=#amazonTranslateClient&operation=translateText");

As result you’ll get an exchange containing the translated text.

Using a POJO as body

Sometimes build an AWS Request can be complex, because of multiple options. We introduce the possibility to use a POJO as body. In AWS Translate the only operation available is TranslateText so you can do something like:

from("direct:start")
  .setBody(TranslateTextRequest.builder().sourceLanguageCode(Translate2LanguageEnum.ITALIAN.toString())
                    .targetLanguageCode(Translate2LanguageEnum.GERMAN.toString()).text("Ciao").build())
  .to("aws2-translate://test?translateClient=#amazonTranslateClient&operation=translateText&pojoRequest=true");

In this way you’ll pass the request directly without the need of passing headers and options specifically related to this operation.

Dependencies

Maven users will need to add the following dependency to their pom.xml.

pom.xml

<dependency>
    <groupId>org.apache.camel</groupId>
    <artifactId>camel-aws2-translate</artifactId>
    <version>${camel-version}</version>
</dependency>

where ${camel-version} must be replaced by the actual version of Camel.

Spring Boot Auto-Configuration

When using aws2-translate with Spring Boot make sure to use the following Maven dependency to have support for auto configuration:

<dependency>
  <groupId>org.apache.camel.springboot</groupId>
  <artifactId>camel-aws2-translate-starter</artifactId>
