## 🔧 API Reference

### Core Components

### 🔐 Authentication

The SDK supports authentication via access key and secret:

```javascript
const credentials = new Credentials("your-access-key-id", "your-access-key-secret");
const lara = new Translator(credentials);
```

**Environment Variables (Recommended):**
```bash
export LARA_ACCESS_KEY_ID="your-access-key-id"
export LARA_ACCESS_KEY_SECRET="your-access-key-secret"
```

```javascript
const credentials = new Credentials(
    process.env.LARA_ACCESS_KEY_ID,
    process.env.LARA_ACCESS_KEY_SECRET
);
```


### 🌍 Translator

```javascript
// Create translator with credentials
const lara = new Translator(credentials);
```

#### Text Translation

```javascript
// Basic translation
const result = await lara.translate("Hello", "en-US", "fr-FR");

// Multiple strings
const result = await lara.translate(["Hello", "World"], "en-US", "fr-FR");

// TextBlocks (mixed translatable/non-translatable content)
const textBlocks = [
    { text: "Translatable text", translatable: true },
    { text: "<br>", translatable: false },  // Non-translatable HTML
    { text: "More translatable text", translatable: true }
];
const result = await lara.translate(textBlocks, "en-US", "fr-FR");

// With advanced options
const options = {
    instructions: ["Formal tone"],
    adaptTo: ["mem_1A2b3C4d5E6f7G8h9I0jKl"],  // Replace with actual memory IDs
    glossaries: ["gls_1A2b3C4d5E6f7G8h9I0jKl"],  // Replace with actual glossary IDs
    style: "fluid",
    timeoutInMillis: 10000
};

const result = await lara.translate("Hello", "en-US", "fr-FR", options);
```

#### Language Detection

Use detect() to automatically identify the language of one or multiple texts.

```javascript
// Single string detection
const single = await lara.detect("Bonjour tout le monde");
console.log(single.language); // fr

// Multiple strings detection
const multiple = await lara.detect(["Hello world", "How are you?"]);
console.log(multiple.languages); // "en"
```

You can provide a hint (expected source language) and a passlist (restrict candidates) to improve accuracy.

```javascript
// Detection with hint and passlist
const detected = await lara.detect(
  "Es un día soleado",
  "es",                      // hint (optional)
  ["es", "pt", "fr"]         // passlist (optional)
);
console.log(detected.language); // es
```

#### Quality Estimation

Use `qualityEstimation()` to score how well a translation matches its source. Pass a single sentence/translation pair to get a single result, or two parallel arrays to get one result per pair.

```javascript
// Single pair
const single = await lara.qualityEstimation(
  "en-US",
  "it-IT",
  "Hello, how are you today?",
  "Ciao, come stai oggi?"
);
console.log(single.score); // e.g. 0.768

// Batch
const batch = await lara.qualityEstimation(
  "en-US",
  "it-IT",
  ["Good morning.", "The weather is nice."],
  ["Buongiorno.", "Il tempo è bello."]
);
console.log(batch.map(r => r.score)); // e.g. [0.751, 0.713]
```

### 📖 Document Translation
#### Simple document translation

```javascript
const fs = require('fs');

const fileStream = fs.createReadStream("/path/to/your/document.txt");  // Replace with actual file path
const translatedContent = await lara.documents.translate(fileStream, "document.txt", "en-US", "fr-FR");

// With options
const options = {
    adaptTo: ["mem_1A2b3C4d5E6f7G8h9I0jKl"],  // Replace with actual memory IDs
    glossaries: ["gls_1A2b3C4d5E6f7G8h9I0jKl"],  // Replace with actual glossary IDs
    style: "fluid"
};

const translatedContent = await lara.documents.translate(fileStream, "document.txt", "en-US", "fr-FR", options);
```
### Document translation with status monitoring
#### Document upload
```javascript
//Optional: upload options
const uploadOptions = {
    adaptTo: ["mem_1A2b3C4d5E6f7G8h9I0jKl"],  // Replace with actual memory IDs
    glossaries: ["gls_1A2b3C4d5E6f7G8h9I0jKl"]  // Replace with actual glossary IDs
};

const document = await lara.documents.upload(fileStream, "document.txt", "en-US", "fr-FR", uploadOptions);
```
#### Document translation status monitoring
```javascript
const status = await lara.documents.status(document.id);
```
#### Download translated document
```javascript
const translatedContent = await lara.documents.download(document.id);
```

### 🖼️ Image Translation

```javascript
const fs = require("fs");

const imageStream = fs.createReadStream("/path/to/your/image.png"); // Replace with actual file path

// Translate image and receive a translated image stream
const translatedImageStream = await lara.images.translate(imageStream, "en", "fr", {
    textRemoval: "inpainting",
    style: "faithful"
});

// Extract and translate text blocks from an image
const textBlocks = await lara.images.translateText(imageStream, "en", "fr", {
    adaptTo: ["mem_1A2b3C4d5E6f7G8h9I0jKl"],
    glossaries: ["gls_1A2b3C4d5E6f7G8h9I0jKl"],
});
```

### 🔊 Audio Translation
#### Simple audio translation

```javascript
const fs = require("fs");

const fileStream = fs.createReadStream("/path/to/your/audio.mp3");  // Replace with actual file path
const translatedStream = await lara.audio.translate(fileStream, "audio.mp3", "en-US", "de-DE");

// With options
const options = {
    adaptTo: ["mem_1A2b3C4d5E6f7G8h9I0jKl"],  // Replace with actual memory IDs
    glossaries: ["gls_1A2b3C4d5E6f7G8h9I0jKl"]  // Replace with actual glossary IDs
};

// Create memory
const memory = await lara.memories.create("MyMemory");

// Create memory with external ID (MyMemory integration)
const memory = await lara.memories.create("Memory from MyMemory", "aabb1122");  // Replace with actual external ID

// Important: To update/overwrite a translation unit you must provide a tuid. Calls without a tuid always create a new unit and will not update existing entries.
// Add translation to single memory
const memoryImport = await lara.memories.addTranslation("mem_1A2b3C4d5E6f7G8h9I0jKl", "en-US", "fr-FR", "Hello", "Bonjour", "greeting_001");

// Add translation to multiple memories

// Add with context
const memoryImport = await lara.memories.addTranslation(
    "mem_1A2b3C4d5E6f7G8h9I0jKl", "en-US", "fr-FR", "Hello", "Bonjour", "tuid", 
    "sentenceBefore", "sentenceAfter"
);

// TMX import from file
const tmxFileStream = fs.createReadStream("/path/to/your/memory.tmx");  // Replace with actual TMX file path
const memoryImport = await lara.memories.importTmx("mem_1A2b3C4d5E6f7G8h9I0jKl", tmxFileStream);

// TMX import with gzip compression
const memoryImport = await lara.memories.importTmx("mem_1A2b3C4d5E6f7G8h9I0jKl", tmxFileStream, true);

// TMX import with a callback URL (notified when the import completes)
const memoryImport = await lara.memories.importTmx(
    "mem_1A2b3C4d5E6f7G8h9I0jKl",
    tmxFileStream,
    "https://your-server.example.com/lara/import-callback"
);

// TMX import with both gzip compression and a callback URL
const memoryImport = await lara.memories.importTmx(
    "mem_1A2b3C4d5E6f7G8h9I0jKl",
    tmxFileStream,
    true,
    "https://your-server.example.com/lara/import-callback"
);

// Async memory export — returns a jobId; the result is delivered to your callback URL when ready
const { jobId } = await lara.memories.exportAsync(
    "mem_1A2b3C4d5E6f7G8h9I0jKl",
    "https://your-server.example.com/lara/export-callback",
    "tmx" // optional, defaults to the server-side default ("tmx" | "jtm")
);

// Delete translation
// Important: if you omit tuid, all entries that match the provided fields will be removed
const deleteJob = await lara.memories.deleteTranslation(
        "mem_1A2b3C4d5E6f7G8h9I0jKl", "en-US", "fr-FR", "Hello", "Bonjour", tuid="greeting_001"
);

// Wait for import completion
const completedImport = await lara.memories.waitForImport(memoryImport, undefined, 300000); // 5 minutes
```

### 📚 Glossary Management

```javascript
// Create glossary
const glossary = await lara.glossaries.create("MyGlossary");

// Import CSV from file
const csvFileStream = fs.createReadStream("/path/to/your/glossary.csv");  // Replace with actual CSV file path
const glossaryImport = await lara.glossaries.importCsv("gls_1A2b3C4d5E6f7G8h9I0jKl", csvFileStream);

// Check import status
const importStatus = await lara.glossaries.getImportStatus("gls_1A2b3C4d5E6f7G8h9I0jKl");

// Wait for import completion
const completedImport = await lara.glossaries.waitForImport(glossaryImport, undefined, 300000); // 5 minutes

    contentType: "text/plain",                            // Content type (text/plain, text/html, etc.)
    multiline: true,                                      // Enable multiline translation
    timeoutInMillis: 10000,                               // Request timeout in milliseconds
    sourceHint: "en",                                     // Hint for source language detection
    noTrace: false,                                       // Disable request tracing
    verbose: false,                                       // Enable verbose response
};
```

### Language Codes

The SDK supports full language codes (e.g., `en-US`, `fr-FR`, `es-ES`) as well as simple codes (e.g., `en`, `fr`, `es`):

```javascript
// Full language codes (recommended)
const result = await lara.translate("Hello", "en-US", "fr-FR");

// Simple language codes
const result = await lara.translate("Hello", "en", "fr");
```

### 🌐 Supported Languages

The SDK supports all languages available in the Lara API. Use the `getLanguages()` method to get the current list:

```javascript
const languages = await lara.getLanguages();
console.log("Supported languages: " + languages.join(', '));
```

## ⚙️ Configuration

### Error Handling

The SDK provides detailed error information:

```javascript
try {
    const result = await lara.translate("Hello", "en-US", "fr-FR");
    console.log("Translation: " + result.translation);
} catch (error) {
    if (error.constructor.name === 'LaraApiError') {
        console.error("API Error [" + error.statusCode + "]: " + error.message);
        console.error("Error type: " + error.type);
    } else {
        console.error("SDK Error: " + error.message);
    }
}
```
