# gtranslate Better front-end for Google Translate that doesn't track you and works without JavaScript. # Installation ```sh git clone https://git.sr.ht/~yerinalexey/gtranslate cd gtranslate go build ``` Then run the server with ```sh ./gtranslate ``` If you want to use a different port: ```sh ./gtranslate -b :3000 # will run on port 3000 ``` Note: if you're running it outside of development environment, you should pass `--template-dir` and `--static-dir` arguments pointing to templates and static directories: ```sh ./gtranslate \ --template-dir /usr/share/webapps/gtranslate/templates \ --static-dir /usr/share/webapps/gtranslate/static ``` Other settings (available via `./gtranslate --help`: ``` -b, --bind string Address to bind the server to, [addr]:port (default ":5000") --proxy string Proxy URL, with no scheme http is assumed --static-dir string Static files directory (default "./static") --template-dir string Templates directory (default "./templates") --user-agent string User-Agent header to use ``` If you want to proxy requests through Tor network, it's a good idea to set User-Agent of Tor Browser so it will be harder to identify such servers: ``` ./gtranslate \ --user-agent "Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; rv:68.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/68.0" \ ... ``` [Source](https://tor.stackexchange.com/questions/4890/tor-browser-user-agent-strings/21524#21524) # TODO - Proper language selector - Dark theme
