Open-source offline translation library written in Python
Argos Translate can be used as either a Python library, command-line, or GUI application. Argos Translate uses OpenNMT for translations, SentencePiece for tokenization, Stanza for sentence boundary detection, and PyQt for GUI. LibreTranslate is an API and web-app built on top of Argos Translate.
Argos Translate supports installing language model packages which are zip archives with a ".argosmodel" extension containing the data needed for translation.
Argos Translate also manages automatically pivoting through intermediate languages to translate between languages that don't have a direct translation between them installed. For example, if you have a es → en and en → fr translation installed you are able to translate from es → fr as if you had that translation installed. This allows for translating between a wide variety of languages at the cost of some loss of translation quality.
