Multiple line translation

[littleblack111]

When I try to translate something with multiple lines(\n) like "Hello World" it will respond {"code":404,"message":"No text to translate}. Although "Hello World" works

Show me Screenshot Pls.

the commands are from README. At first I thought it was my code's issue. So I tested the command with multiple lines. Which didn't work

In JSON, strings cannot be written directly across lines. You should use newline characters.

curl -X POST http://localhost:1188/translate \
-H "Content-Type: application/json" \
-H "Authorization: Bearer your_access_token" \
-d '{
    "text": "Hello\nworld!",
    "source_lang": "EN",
    "target_lang": "DE"
}'

If you use this type of API debugging tool, you'll notice that when you paste something that contains line breaks, it's automatically converted to \n.

so what should I do if I want to make it able to do multiple lines. Or is it just not possible?

Is my expression not clear enough? I have already given you quite clear examples above.

[missuo]

I hope you have some basic knowledge of coding, at least to the extent that you understand what \n represents. Otherwise, I think you will not be able to use DeepLX properly.

understand, i need to convert it to \n then reconvert it back to lines

It seems you still haven't understood what I meant. If you extract the data from the Response, printing it will automatically line break because it contains \n.

I need to convert it as well right?(like var=var.replace('\n', '\n') oh, I'm not printing it. I'm displaying it like a widget so, i convert it back (var=var.replace('\n', '\n'))

Show me your full code.

replace('\n', '\\n')

Why do this?

[littleblack111]

because otherwise it will return {"code":404,"message":"No text to translate}
