How to use PHP to develop the translation function of WeChat applet?

With the development of the Internet, language exchange and communication have become more and more important. WeChat mini program is one of the most popular applications currently and has a huge user base around the world. In order to make the mini program better adapt to the needs of multilingual users, developers can add translation functions to it. This article will introduce the specific steps of using PHP to develop the translation function of WeChat applet and provide code examples.

1. Register a WeChat Mini Program Developer Account

First, you need to register a developer account on the WeChat Open Platform to obtain the relevant API keys and credentials. For specific operations, please refer to the official documentation of WeChat Open Platform.

2. Get Baidu Translation API Key

Since the WeChat applet does not have a built-in translation function, we can use a third-party translation API to achieve this. Here we choose to use Baidu Translation API as an example. You need to go to the Baidu Translation Open Platform to register a developer account and obtain the API Key and Secret Key. Take care to keep these keys to ensure security.

3. Create PHP File

Next, you need to create a file in your PHP project that will handle translation requests. You can choose the appropriate file name and path based on your project structure and naming conventions.

//Introducing Baidu Translation API library
require_once('BaiduTransAPI.php');

// Get parameters passed from the front end of the mini program
$text = isset($_GET['text']) ? $_GET['text'] : '';
$from = isset($_GET['from']) ? $_GET['from' ] : 'auto';
$to = isset($_GET['to']) ? $_GET['to'] : 'zh';

// Instantiate Baidu Translation API
$api = new BaiduTransAPI('your_api_key', 'your_secret_key');

// Initiate a translation request
$result = $api->translate($text, $from, $to);

// Return the translation result
echo json_encode($result);
?>

In the above sample code, we introduced a class library called BaiduTransAPI. You can write this class library yourself or use the existing Baidu Translation API class library. Taking the above code as an example, we obtain the text, source language and target language that need to be translated from the front end of the applet, and instantiate the Baidu Translation API. Then, we call the translation method of the API and return the result to the applet front end.

4. Writing the WeChat Mini Program Code

Next, you need to write the front-end code in the WeChat Mini Program to send a translation request to the PHP file and display the translation results.

// index.wxml


Translate< ;/button>
{{translatedText}}

// index.js
Page({
data : {

originalText: '',
translatedText: ''

},
onInput: function(e) {

this.setData({
  originalText: e.detail.value
})

},
translate: function() {

var that = this;
var text = this.data.originalText;
wx.request({
  url: 'https://your-domain.com/translate.php', // 替换成您的PHP文件URL
  data: {
    text: text
  },
  success: function(res) {
    that.setData({
      translatedText: res.data.trans_result[0].dst
    })
  }
})

}
})

In the above applet code, we first created a text box and a button in the WXML file, which are used to enter the text that needs to be translated and trigger the translation request. Then, two functions were written in the JS file, onInput is used to monitor text input, and translate is used to handle translation requests. In the translate function, we use the wx.request method to send a translation request to the previously created PHP file and update the translation results to the mini program page.

At this point, you have completed all the steps to use PHP to develop the translation function of the WeChat applet. You can make appropriate modifications and optimizations to the code based on your actual needs and project conditions. I hope this article can help you, and I wish you success in developing WeChat mini programs!
