# bilingual_book_maker

The bilingual_book_maker is an AI translation tool that uses ChatGPT to assist users in creating multi-language versions of epub/txt/srt files and books. This tool is exclusively designed for translating epub books that have entered the public domain and is not intended for copyrighted works. Before using this tool, please review the project's **[disclaimer](./disclaimer.md)**.

## Supported Models

gpt-4, gpt-3.5-turbo, claude-2, palm, llama-2, azure-openai, command-nightly, gemini
For using Non-OpenAI models, use class `liteLLM()` - liteLLM supports all models above.
Find more info here for using liteLLM: https://github.com/BerriAI/litellm/blob/main/setup.py

## Preparation

1. ChatGPT or OpenAI token [^token]
2. epub/txt books
3. Environment with internet access or proxy
4. Python 3.8+

## Quick Start

A sample book, `test_books/animal_farm.epub`, is provided for testing purposes.

```shell
pip install -r requirements.txt
python3 make_book.py --book_name test_books/animal_farm.epub --openai_key ${openai_key} --test
OR
pip install -U bbook_maker
bbook --book_name test_books/animal_farm.epub --openai_key ${openai_key} --test
```

## Translate Service

- Use `--openai_key` option to specify OpenAI API key. If you have multiple keys, separate them by commas (xxx,xxx,xxx) to reduce errors caused by API call limits.
  Or, just set environment variable `BBM_OPENAI_API_KEY` instead.
- A sample book, `test_books/animal_farm.epub`, is provided for testing purposes.
- The default underlying model is [GPT-3.5-turbo](https://openai.com/blog/introducing-chatgpt-and-whisper-apis), which is used by ChatGPT currently. Use `--model gpt4` to change the underlying model to `GPT4`. You can also use `GPT4omini`.
- Important to note that `gpt-4` is significantly more expensive than `gpt-4-turbo`, but to avoid bumping into rate limits, we automatically balance queries across `gpt-4-1106-preview`, `gpt-4`, `gpt-4-32k`, `gpt-4-0613`,`gpt-4-32k-0613`.
- If you want to use a specific model alias with OpenAI (eg `gpt-4-1106-preview` or `gpt-3.5-turbo-0125`), you can use `--model openai --model_list gpt-4-1106-preview,gpt-3.5-turbo-0125`. `--model_list` takes a comma-separated list of model aliases.
- If using chatgptapi, you can add `--use_context` to add a context paragraph to each passage sent to the model for translation (see below).

## Use

- Once the translation is complete, a bilingual book named `${book_name}_bilingual.epub` would be generated.
- If there are any errors or you wish to interrupt the translation by pressing `CTRL+C`. A book named `{book_name}_bilingual_temp.epub` would be generated. You can simply rename it to any desired name.

## Params

- `--test`:

  Use `--test` option to preview the result if you haven't paid for the service. Note that there is a limit and it may take some time.

- `--language`:

  Set the target language like `--language "Simplified Chinese"`. Default target language is `"Simplified Chinese"`.
  Read available languages by helper message: `python make_book.py --help`

- `--proxy`:

  Use `--proxy` option to specify proxy server for internet access. Enter a string such as `http://127.0.0.1:7890`.

- `--resume`:

  Use `--resume` option to manually resume the process after an interruption.

  ```shell
  python3 make_book.py --book_name test_books/animal_farm.epub --model google --resume
  ```

- `--translate-tags`:

  epub is made of html files. By default, we only translate contents in `<p>`.
  Use `--translate-tags` to specify tags need for translation. Use comma to separate multiple tags.
  For example: `--translate-tags h1,h2,h3,p,div`

- `--book_from`:

  Use `--book_from` option to specify e-reader type (Now only `kobo` is available), and use `--device_path` to specify the mounting point.

- `--api_base`:

  If you want to change api_base like using Cloudflare Workers, use `--api_base <URL>` to support it.
  **Note: the api url should be '`https://xxxx/v1`'. Quotation marks are required.**

- `--allow_navigable_strings`:

  If you want to translate strings in an e-book that aren't labeled with any tags, you can use the `--allow_navigable_strings` parameter. This will add the strings to the translation queue. **Note that it's best to look for e-books that are more standardized if possible.**

- `--prompt`:

  To tweak the prompt, use the `--prompt` parameter. Valid placeholders for the `user` role template include `{text}` and `{language}`. It supports a few ways to configure the prompt:

  - If you don't need to set the `system` role content, you can simply set it up like this: `--prompt "Translate {text} to {language}."` or `--prompt prompt_template_sample.txt` (example of a text file can be found at [./prompt_template_sample.txt](./prompt_template_sample.txt)).

  - If you need to set the `system` role content, you can use the following format: `--prompt '{"user":"Translate {text} to {language}", "system": "You are a professional translator."}'` or `--prompt prompt_template_sample.json` (example of a JSON file can be found at [./prompt_template_sample.json](./prompt_template_sample.json)).

  - You can also set the `user` and `system` role prompt by setting environment variables: `BBM_CHATGPTAPI_USER_MSG_TEMPLATE` and `BBM_CHATGPTAPI_SYS_MSG`.

- `--batch_size`:

  Use the `--batch_size` parameter to specify the number of lines for batch translation (default is 10, currently only effective for txt files).

- `--accumulated_num`:

  Wait for how many tokens have been accumulated before starting the translation. gpt3.5 limits the total_token to 4090. For example, if you use `--accumulated_num 1600`, maybe openai will output 2200 tokens and maybe 200 tokens for other messages in the system messages user messages, 1600+2200+200=4000, So you are close to reaching the limit. You have to choose your own
  value, there is no way to know if the limit is reached before sending

- `--use_context`:

  prompts the model to create a three-paragraph summary. If it's the beginning of the translation, it will summarize the entire passage sent (the size depending on `--accumulated_num`).
  For subsequent passages, it will amend the summary to include details from the most recent passage, creating a running one-paragraph context payload of the important details of the entire translated work. This improves consistency of flow and tone throughout the translation. This option is available for all ChatGPT-compatible models and Gemini models.

- `--context_paragraph_limit`:

  Use `--context_paragraph_limit` to set a limit on the number of context paragraphs when using the `--use_context` option.

- `--temperature`:

  Use `--temperature` to set the temperature parameter for `chatgptapi`/`gpt4`/`claude` models.
  For example: `--temperature 0.7`.

- `--block_size`:

  Use `--block_size` to merge multiple paragraphs into one block. This may increase accuracy and speed up the process but can disturb the original format. Must be used with `--single_translate`.
  For example: `--block_size 5 --single_translate`.

- `--single_translate`:

  Use `--single_translate` to output only the translated book without creating a bilingual version.

- `--translation_style`:

  example: `--translation_style "color: #808080; font-style: italic;"`

- `--retranslate "$translated_filepath" "file_name_in_epub" "start_str" "end_str"(optional)`:

  - Retranslate from start_str to end_str's tag:

  ```shell
  python3 "make_book.py" --book_name "test_books/animal_farm.epub" --retranslate 'test_books/animal_farm_bilingual.epub' 'index_split_002.html' 'in spite of the present book shortage which' 'This kind of thing is not a good symptom. Obviously'
  ```

  - Retranslate start_str's tag:

  ```shell
  python3 "make_book.py" --book_name "test_books/animal_farm.epub" --retranslate 'test_books/animal_farm_bilingual.epub' 'index_split_002.html' 'in spite of the present book shortage which'
  ```

## Docker

You can use [Docker](https://www.docker.com/) if you don't want to deal with setting up the environment.

```shell
# Build image
docker build --tag bilingual_book_maker .

# Run container
# "$folder_path" represents the folder where your book file locates. Also, it is where the processed file will be stored.

# Windows PowerShell
$folder_path=your_folder_path # $folder_path="C:\Users\user\mybook\"
$book_name=your_book_name # $book_name="animal_farm.epub"
$openai_key=your_api_key # $openai_key="sk-xxx"
$language=your_language # see utils.py

docker run --rm --name bilingual_book_maker --mount type=bind,source=$folder_path,target='/app/test_books' bilingual_book_maker --book_name "/app/test_books/$book_name" --openai_key $openai_key --language $language

# Linux
export folder_path=${your_folder_path}
export book_name=${your_book_name}
export openai_key=${your_api_key}
export language=${your_language}

docker run --rm --name bilingual_book_maker --mount type=bind,source=${folder_path},target='/app/test_books' bilingual_book_maker --book_name "/app/test_books/${book_name}" --openai_key ${openai_key} --language "${language}"
```
