Calibre Translator+ Google Colab

[BlockSats]

I’m discovering the power of your plugin and I thank you immensely for it.

However, I’m using a ThinkPad X201 with 8GB of RAM, and I’m wondering if the translation could run much faster on more powerful hardware.

I thought of using Google Colab, but I wasn’t able to get the plugin to work.
Calibre installs correctly, but not the plugin.

Is there a solution to make it work?
Do you think that could be feasible?

Thank you in advance.

The Ebook Translator plugin for Calibre is primarily designed for use via the graphical interface. However, Calibre provides the ability to execute plugins with a command-line interface using the calibre-debug tool. For this to be possible, the plugin must implement a specific cli_main(args) method.

If the Ebook Translator plugin includes this functionality, you can run it via the command line as follows:

calibre-debug -r "Plugin Name" -- [options]

In this command, everything after -- will be passed as arguments to the plugin. For example:

calibre-debug -r "Ebook Translator" -- input.epub output.epub --lang fr

This command would execute the "Ebook Translator" plugin to translate input.epub into French, saving the result in output.epub. The specific options depend on the plugin's implementation.
