Translation with google translator does not work #4

Closed dbogdanov closed 6 years ago

dbogdanov commented 7 years ago

The right panel is empty. Yandex translation works.

gufoe commented 7 years ago

Thanks of the feedback, you have translate-shell installed, right? What version of this extension do you have? You can find out with grep '"version"' ~/.local/share/gnome-shell/extensions/text_translator@awamper.gmail.com/metadata.json

dbogdanov commented 7 years ago 
"version": 23

translate-shell is installed

gufoe commented 7 years ago

One last check, can you please open Looking Glass (Alt + F2, type lg, then return) and check if the extension has emitted any errors in the "extensions" tab?

dbogdanov commented 7 years ago

No errors

gufoe commented 7 years ago

I'm sorry but I'm not able to understand what might be causing your problem and I haven't been able to reproduce it.

dbogdanov commented 7 years ago

By the way, I can click on audio to hear the original phrase to translate. When clicking Go, or on Ctrl-Enter, there is a text "Translating..." for a while and then nothing happens: no text, no audio with translation.

MatLeb commented 7 years ago

Same problem. "version": 23 translate-shell is installed No errors

jaro3 commented 7 years ago

same problem, audio works, right window always shows "ftpPassword" (I have to go through proxy) trans from command line works fine!

ghost commented 7 years ago

sudo apt-get install translate-shell this have fixed the problem in my case

gufoe commented 7 years ago

I think #8 fixed the problem, can somebody update manually and confirm?

dbogdanov commented 7 years ago

I've installed translate-shell with no success.

8 is related to special characters. I have an issue even without having them.

gufoe commented 7 years ago

Hey @dbogdanov, is it still broken?

dbogdanov commented 7 years ago

I've updated the extension via the gnome extension manager, but it still does not work.

oldiob commented 7 years ago

Same problem here. tanslate-shell version 26. I changed from google translate engine to the yandex engine. It seems to fix the problem for now. Perhaps google translate API changed? Great extension by the way!

kyuden commented 7 years ago

Same problem here.

itssvet commented 6 years ago

The same, on the 2nd PC, suddenly Google translator started to show only empty field, but Yandex works Fedora 26, Gnome 3.24 :( Translate-shell reinstall didn't help, but it works fine at the Terminal even using google Extension reinstall from http://extensions.gnome.org/ also didn't help. No errors in lg. Extension "version": 26.

What could I perform for further investigation? I really enjoy using this extension, but Yandex's translation is awful :)

gufoe commented 6 years ago

Hi, what's your translate-shell version (trans --version)?

dbogdanov commented 6 years ago

Translate Shell 0.9.2.1-git:f858086

gufoe commented 6 years ago

As written in the readme:

Make sure your version of translate-shell is over 0.9.5-1, otherwise it might cause issues.

I suggest you to uninstall your current version and to install manually the latest version:

wget git.io/trans
chmod +x ./trans
sudo mv trans /usr/bin/

Dear all-knowing wizard @gufoe, please tell us something else :)

gufoe commented 6 years ago

@dbogdanov, did updating translate-shell fix your problem? @itssvet, you have everything setup correctly, so I'm working on a patch which should solve all of these bugs once and for all, stay ready as you'll be the beta tester!

itssvet commented 6 years ago

Okay, looking forward for it! Thanks!

gufoe commented 6 years ago

I've just pushed the last changes, you can try by:

cd ~/.local/share/gnome-shell/extensions
rm -rf text_translator@awamper.gmail.com
git clone https://github.com/gufoe/text-translator.git text_translator@awamper.gmail.com

Then press alt+f2, type r to reload the shell, and let me know if it works. Also, apart minor bugs, the graphics should match the shell theme. Does it?

itssvet commented 6 years ago

My admiration! It works! Thank you!

gufoe commented 6 years ago

Great! I'm finally closing this, thanks everybody for the reports and the patience!

dbogdanov commented 6 years ago

@gufoe Thanks for the update! Did you also update the extension on extensions.gnome.org? I've just tried to install from there and now I get "Error loading extension" in Gnome Tweak Tool.

itssvet commented 6 years ago

@dbogdanov yesterday my Gnome updated this extension from extensions.gnome.org automatically, it works fine UPD haha got the same error :(

gufoe commented 6 years ago

Hi guys, sorry for the delay, I was far from the pc last week. Luckily https://github.com/gufoe/text-translator/pull/20 should be fixing this! I'm uploading the extension now, I'll let you know when they approve it.
