Slack bot to translate chat messages of any language into specified language

Because we are an international team and sometimes I don't understand what they all are talking about.

Traductor is using Microsoft Translator API, because it's free 😅

Get Translator API account: https://datamarket.azure.com/dataset/bing/microsofttranslator

Create .env file and put the following env vars inside:

BOT_NAME=bot_name
BOT_TOKEN=bot_token
CLIENT_ID=microsofttranslator_client_id
CLIENT_SECRET=microsofttranslator_client_secret
TRANSLATE_TO=en
ADD_MESSAGE=message_to_append
SUSPEND_TIMEOUT=600000

• TRANSLATE_TO — translate messages to specified lan, check lang codes in lib/lang_codes.js
• ADD_MESSAGE — specify the message you want to add to every translation, check the screenshot above.
• SUSPEND_TIMEOUT — the time period in ms while the bot will not translate messages

$ npm i
$ npm start

Running as daemon with pm2

$ pm2 start index.js --next-gen-js --name "traductor"

@traductor: stop — suspend the bot for 10 minutes in current channel/group
