# Discord Bot Template
Translate command for Another Child Spring server
## Command Usage
### Name
translate - Translate a message into the selected language
### Syntax
translate [lang] [message]
### Description
The translate command will call the Deepl API to translate the message into the chosen lang. The lang parameter can simply be the destination language (source language is automatically detected) but if the user wants to specify the source language it can be formatted like so: `src->dst`
## Limitation
- Deepl API limit to 500.000 characters/month for the free version
## Requirement
- [Docker](https://www.docker.com/products/docker-desktop/)
- [GNU Make](https://www.gnu.org/software/make/) (optional)

## Notes
- Configuration file format is [TOML](https://toml.io/en/). It is a minimal configuration file format that's easy to read due to obvious semantics. TOML is designed to map unambiguously to a hash table. TOML should be easy to parse into data structures in a wide variety of languages. Read `src/config.ts` to see all possibilities.
- Project use [Inhibitor](https://sheweny.js.org/guide/inhibitors/Inhibitor.html) from `Sheweny`. Inhibitor is a kind of middleware for command. Inhibitors allow you to limit the use of a command, an event, or an interaction.
