How to use the package in plain Javascript?

[codervince]

Doesn't seem as simple as
const translate = require("deepl-client");
Could you add some info on how to use this module in Plain JS.

Sorry for the delay, I'll try to write a guide during the weekend!

Hi @codervince, I (finally) got around to writing a guide in plain javascript. You can use the package like this:

First, run npm install deepl-client in your terminal.
Then, import the package and call the desired function, like this:

// Import the package
const client = require('deepl-client');

// Create a parameter object.
const parameters = {
  auth_key: 'your-auth-key,
  text: 'This is a sentence.',
  target_lang: client.Language.French,
}

// Use the translate function and log the response.
client.translate(parameters).then(data => console.log(data));

The snippet above will result in the following log:

> node index.js
{
  translations: [ { detected_source_language: 'EN', text: "C'est une phrase." } ]
}

I hope this clarifies how to use the package. Sorry for taking such a long time!
