ai.text.dictionary

This is an intent to get meanings of text in selected language.

Basic usage

To dictionary a text, send a POST request to Intento API at https://api.inten.to/ai/text/dictionary. Specify the source text, source and target languages and the desired provider in JSON body of the request as in the following example:

curl -XPOST -H 'apikey: YOUR_API_KEY' 'https://api.inten.to/ai/text/dictionary' -d '{
    "context": {
        "text": "kick",
        "from": "en",
        "to": "ru"
    },
    "service": {
        "provider": "ai.text.dictionary.yandex.dictionary_api.1-0"
    }
}'

The response contains the dictionary results grouped by part of speech and a service information. Parts of speech are formatted in snake_case style:

{
    "results": [
        {
            "noun": [
                "пинок"
            ],
            "verb": [
                "пинать"
            ]
        }
    ],
    "meta": {},
    "service": {
        "provider": {
            "id": "ai.text.dictionary.yandex.dictionary_api.1-0",
            "name": "Yandex Dictionary API"
        }
    }
}

The response can contain an empty json key if some dictionary results do not contain part of speech:

{
    "results": [
        {
            "": [
                "Apple"
            ],
            "noun": [
                "яблоко"
            ],
            "adjective": [
                "яблочный"
            ]
        }
    ],
    "meta": {
    },
    "service": {
        "provider": {
            "id": "ai.text.dictionary.yandex.dictionary_api.1-0",
            "name": "Yandex Dictionary API"
        }
    }
}

If the provider doesn't have capabilities (e.g. language pairs) to process request, 413 error will be returned:

{
    "error": {
        "code": 413,
        "message": "Provider ai.text.dictionary.yandex.dictionary_api.1-0 constraint(s) violated: from (Source language)"
    }
}

Getting available providers

To get a list of available Dictionary providers, send a GET request to https://api.inten.to/ai/text/dictionary.
