googletrans Translate() not working on Spyder but works on Colab

问题

I am using googletrans Translator on offline data in local repo:

translator = Translator()
translations = []
for element in df['myText']:
    translations.append(translator.translate(element).text)
df['translations'] = translations

On Google Colab it works fine(20 mins) but on my machine it takes 30 mins and stops with ReadTimeout error:

  File "<ipython-input-9-2209313a9a78>", line 4, in <module>
    translations.append(translator.translate(element).text)

  File "C:\Anaconda3\lib\site-packages\googletrans\client.py", line 182, in translate
    data = self._translate(text, dest, src, kwargs)

  File "C:\Anaconda3\lib\site-packages\googletrans\client.py", line 83, in _translate
    r = self.client.get(url, params=params)

    return self.sock.recv(n)

    self.gen.throw(type, value, traceback)

  File "C:\Anaconda3\lib\site-packages\httpcore\_exceptions.py", line 12, in map_exceptions
    raise to_exc(exc) from None

ReadTimeout: The read operation timed out

My machine: 16 GB Ram (i5 + NVIDIA); Google Colab RAM: 0.87 GB/12.72 GB

# Data Size
len(df) : 1800

Not sure why doesn't it run on my local machine? I have worked on heavier datasets before. I am using Python 3 (Spyder 4.0).

回答1:

I'm having some problems with this translation as well... It appears that the error you're getting has nothing to do with your machine, but with the request to the API timing out. Try and pass a Timeout object from the httpx library to the Translator builder. Something like this:

import httpx
timeout = httpx.Timeout(5) # 5 seconds timeout
translator = Translator(timeout=timeout)

You can change to 5 to another value, if needed. It has solver the problem for me, so far.
