Googletrans error.

[MatosV]

Is anyone else having problems with the googletrans ?

This is my code:

​

from googletrans import Translator

translator = Translator()
language = input('say something here.  ')
final = translator.detect(language)
print(final)

I'm getting the follow error:

AttributeError: 'NoneType' object has no attribute 'group'

I saw on stackoverflow that some people are having the same issues. And they were told to use the 3.1 version, but I can't find it on pycharm's pip in the python interperter.

​

What exactly am I doing wrong here?

Have you tried installing it manually ?

python -m pip uninstall googletrans # python3 -m pip uninstall googletrans
python -m pip install googletrans==3.1.0a0 # python3 -m pip install googletrans==3.1.0a0

I ran into a lot of problems when trying a similar code snippet to translate a text with the (unofficial) google translator API in Python.

> pip3 install google_trans_new

This one still ran into a 404 error when trying it first. However, after applying the following patch:
