wolfram alpha in any language

[royrogger]

hey,
first thank you for the great project.
i like wolfram alpha but sadly my motherlanguage is german and wolfram will only accept english to work with.
so i played a little bit with the script to translate my question to english via deepl and the response back to german.

since deepl translate any language to english, you just have to adapt the response translation to your native language.
you can edit the line 79 for that

you need for that a deepl api key and the wolfram api key.
just edit the keys and your wanted language to work with and it should work with view assist.

import requests

@service(supports_response="optional")
def viewassist_wolfram_deepl(query=None, return_response=True, target_lang="EN"):
    """yaml
    name: Get short answer with deepl translation
    description: Gets a deepl translation and response from Wolfram Alpha's Short Answers API
    fields:
      query:
        description: query to be submitted to short answers API
        example: um was geht es im film herr der ringe
        required: true
