from google.cloud import translate
client = translate.Client()
client.get_languages()
[
    {
        'language': 'af',
        'name': 'Afrikaans',
    },
     ...
]
client.detect_language(['Me llamo', 'I am'])
[
    {
        'confidence': 0.25830904,
        'input': 'Me llamo',
        'language': 'es',
    }, {

I've had the same problem

AttributeError: module 'google.cloud.translate' has no attribute 'Client'

I am running Python 3.7.3
[GCC 8.3.0] on linux (WSL) via Windows 10 Pro
using a venv

I'm using the demo code from
https://cloud.google.com/translate/docs/quickstart-client-libraries#client-libraries-usage-python

I believe I have all the correct dependencies installed

I am experiencing the exact same thing..
I tried uninstalling and reinstalling it but without luck.

from google.cloud import translate

translate_client = translate.Client()
Traceback (most recent call last):

File "", line 1, in
translate_client = translate.Client()

AttributeError: module 'google.cloud.translate' has no attribute 'Client'

Hi,
the same problem for me either.
I followed the steps here
https://cloud.google.com/translate/docs/reference/libraries#client-libraries-install-python
also installing
pip install --upgrade google-cloud-translate

If I move the same script in a folder where I did the same steps 2-3 months ago, it works instead!
Has anything changed in the libraries?

Python 3.6.8 (default, Oct 7 2019, 12:59:55)
[GCC 8.3.0] on linux
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.

Hi all, a new major version was released recently: #9527

To keep your client code working as expected you can do one of 2 things:

1. Hard set your library version to 1.7.0 in your requirements.txt

google-cloud-translate==1.7.0

or
2) Update your samples to explicitly use the v2 version of the library if you are using the 2.0.0 library version: GoogleCloudPlatform/python-docs-samples#2498

from google.cloud import translate_v2 as translate

[tgsmith61591]

@nnegrey Was there a deprecation warning on this? Perhaps there was but I missed it...

[tgsmith61591]

Also looks like your documentation on PyPi is out of date:

>>> from google.cloud import translate
>>> client = translate.Client()

[busunkim96]

Apologies for any confusion caused by the README. I've opened #9536 to fix that and some other issues with the docs. Please reference the v2 and v3 reference documentation at these links below:

• https://googleapis.dev/python/translation/latest/v2.html
• https://googleapis.dev/python/translation/latest/v3.html

As far as deprecation warning:

We released this as a major version bump 1.7.0 -> 2.0.0 to indicate that there were breaking changes. We follow the semantic versioning specification (semver.org). Changes are noted in the CHANGELOG.md and the release notes on GitHub

For GA libraries (versions >=1.0.0) please make sure to (1) pin to a specific version or (2) specify a version range less than the next major version. Otherwise you can end up installing a version of this library that is incompatible with your codebase.

(1) pin to a specific version that you know works with your code

google-cloud-translate==1.7.0

(2) specify a version range less than next major

google-cloud-translate<2.0.0dev

[alecthegeek]

I can confirm that this code makes it work

# Imports the Google Cloud client library
from google.cloud import translate_v2

# Instantiates a client
translate_client = translate_v2.Client()

Might need to update the quick start guide

https://cloud.google.com/translate/docs/quickstart-client-libraries#client-libraries-install-python

@alecthegeek, yep! Also updated the docs site this morning.
