This project contains source code and supporting files for a serverless pipeline for translating JSON documents using Amazon Translate that you can deploy with the SAM CLI. It includes the following files and folders.

• translate_json - Code for the application's Lambda functions.
• translate-json-template.yaml - A template that defines the application's AWS resources.

The application uses several AWS resources, including AWS Lambda functions, Amazon Simple Storage Service and Amazon EventBridge Rules. These resources are defined in the translate-json-template.yaml file in this project.

Important: this application uses Amazon Translate and there are costs associated with this service after the Free Tier usage - please see the Amazon Translate pricing page for details.

Successfully created/updated stack - translate-json-stack

This script uses AWS CloudFormation to deploy the Lambda functions and an IAM role. If the AWS CloudFormation stack that contains the resources already exists, the script updates it with any changes to the template or function code.

• Deploy the stack with required parameters (SourceLanguageCode, TargetLanguageCode and TriggerFileName)
• Upload JSON files in the input folder of the created Amazon S3 bucket.
• Upload the 0-byte file with name matching the TriggerFileName parameter in the input folder
• The solution will trigger and after few minutes , you will see the translated JSON files in output folder in the same bucket

To delete the sample application that you created, use the AWS CLI. Assuming you used your project name for the stack name, you can run the following:

aws cloudformation delete-stack --stack-name translate-json-stack
