In this program, we simply use the proxy object to invoke the <code>modes</mode> method on the D-Bus object <code>org.apertium.info</code>. This returns a Java <code>List&lt;String&gt;</code>; we enumerate this list, printing each string.

This program is a simple emulation of the main apertium program. It takes a single parameter, which is the translation mode (something like en-ca). It reads words from stdin and calls the method <code>translate</code> on the D-Bus proxy object <code>translator</code> to translate the text read from stdin. When the translation is complete, it writes the translated string to stdout.

[http://clojure.sourceforge.net/ Clojure] is a new Lisp dialect aimed at the Java Virtual Machine. You can see that the Clojure implementation is close to the Java implementation. To run the Clojure code, you will need to pass the same command line parameters to the Java Virtual Machine as for the Java example above.

Here are some code snippets for various programming languages (complete with completely unnecessary comments) showing how you can interface with Apertium by means of D-Bus. You'll need to install the D-Bus service for Apertium.

Python[edit]

#!/usr/bin/python
# coding=utf-8
# -*- encoding: utf-8 -*-

import dbus, sys, codecs;

sys.stdin = codecs.getwriter('utf-8')(sys.stdin);
sys.stdout = codecs.getwriter('utf-8')(sys.stdout);

mode_name = 'en-af'; # The name of the installed mode

bus = dbus.SessionBus(); # Create a new session bus

# Get the translator
translator = dbus.Interface(bus.get_object('org.apertium.mode', '/'), 'org.apertium.Translate'); 

input = sys.stdin.read(); # Read the data

print translator.translate(mode_name, {}, input); # Print the translation

Java[edit]

import org.freedesktop.DBus;
import org.freedesktop.dbus.DBusConnection;
import org.freedesktop.dbus.exceptions.DBusException;

import org.apertium.Info; // The interface we use to access org.apertium.info/

class TestDBus {

        public static void main(String[] args) throws org.freedesktop.dbus.exceptions.DBusException {
                DBusConnection bus = null;
                Info info = null;

                bus = DBusConnection.getConnection(DBusConnection.SESSION);
                info = bus.getRemoteObject("org.apertium.info", "/", Info.class);

                for (String s : info.modes()) {
                        System.out.println(s);
                }

                bus.disconnect();
        }
}

In this program, we simply use the proxy object to invoke the modes method on the D-Bus object org.apertium.info. This returns a Java List<String>; we enumerate this list, printing each string.

C++[edit]

{
public:
    Translate(DBus::Connection& connection, const char* path, const char* name)
    : DBus::ObjectProxy(connection, path, name) {
    }
};

DBus::BusDispatcher dispatcher;

int main(int argc, char** argv) {
    DBus::default_dispatcher = &dispatcher;
    DBus::Connection bus = DBus::Connection::SessionBus();

    std::stringstream input;
    std::string mode;
    std::map< ::DBus::String, ::DBus::String> translate_options;

    if (argc != 2) {
        std::cerr << "usage: dbus_test <mode>" << std::endl;
        return 1;
    }

    mode = std::string(argv[1]);

    while (!std::cin.eof() and std::cin) {
        std::string str;
        std::cin >> str;
        input << str << " ";
    }

    Translate translator(bus, TRANSLATE_OBJECT_PATH, TRANSLATE_SERVICE_NAME);
    std::cout << translator.translate(mode, translate_options, input.str()) 
              << std::endl;
}

This program is a simple emulation of the main apertium program. It takes a single parameter, which is the translation mode (something like en-ca). It reads words from stdin and calls the method translate on the D-Bus proxy object translator to translate the text read from stdin. When the translation is complete, it writes the translated string to stdout.

Clojure[edit]

(import '(org.freedesktop.dbus DBusConnection))

(def bus (. DBusConnection (getConnection (. DBusConnection SESSION))))
(def info (. bus (getRemoteObject "org.apertium.info" "/" (class org.apertium.Info))))

(doseq mode (. info (modes))
       (prn mode))

(. bus (disconnect))
