Access to the free Microsoft's HTTP translation API

Translate your texts using Microsoft's Bing Translation services HTTP API http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ff512419.aspx, _(*1)

The code is based on the one provided by Microsoft at the documentation, prepared for composer. In two lines, you can have a translation service working!, _(*2)

Before working with the code, get your Access Token, using your MSN account. More info at: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/hh454950.aspx, _(*3)

Don't get confused with the clientID. It's not the Customer ID nor your account key. The clientID is the text (possibly your app name or some plain-language text) that you specified when registering your application. You can view your client id here: https://datamarket.azure.com/developer/applications, _(*4)

There is a free data tier of 2 million characters per month. Check here if you haven't used yet your monthly limit: https://datamarket.azure.com/account/datasets, _(*5)

{
    "require": {
        "natxet/microsoft-translation-api": "*"
    },
    "minimum-stability": "dev"
