API for Amazon Translate¶

ABAP Package	`/AWS1/API_XL8_IMPL`
ABAP SDK "TLA"	`XL8`
ABAP Interface	`/AWS1/IF_XL8`

The "TLA" is a Three Letter Abbreviation that appears in ABAP class names, data dictionary objects and other ABAP objects throughout the AWS SDK for SAP ABAP. The TLA for Amazon Translate is XL8. This TLA helps squeeze ABAP objects into the 30-character length limit of the ABAP data dictionary.

Installation¶

To install the AWS SDK for SAP ABAP, import the Core transport, along with the transport for the Translate module and other API modules you are interested in. A few modules are included in the Core transport itself. For more information, see the Developer Guide guide.

About The Service¶

Provides translation of the input content from the source language to the target language.

Using the SDK¶

In your code, create a client using the SDK module for Amazon Translate, which is created with factory method /AWS1/CL_XL8_FACTORY=>create(). In this example we will assume you have configured an SDK profile in transaction /AWS1/IMG called ZFINANCE.

DATA(go_session)   = /aws1/cl_rt_session_aws=>create( 'ZFINANCE' ).
DATA(go_xl8)       = /aws1/cl_xl8_factory=>create( go_session ).

Your variable go_xl8 is an instance of /AWS1/IF_XL8, and all of the operations in the Amazon Translate service are accessed by calling methods in /AWS1/IF_XL8.

/AWS1/IF_XL8 represents the ABAP client for the Translate service, representing each operation as a method call. For more information see the API Page page.

Configuring Programmatically¶

DATA(lo_config) = DATA(go_xl8)->get_config( ).

lo_config is a variable of type /AWS1/CL_XL8_CONFIG. See the documentation for /AWS1/CL_XL8_CONFIG for details on the settings that can be configured.

Paginators¶

Paginators for Amazon Translate can be created via get_paginator() which returns a paginator object of type /AWS1/IF_XL8_PAGINATOR. The operation method that is being paginated is called using the paginator object, which accepts any necessary parameters to provide to the underlying API operation. This returns an iterator object which can be used to iterate over paginated results using has_next() and get_next() methods.

Details about the paginator methods available for service Amazon Translate can be found in interface /AWS1/IF_XL8_PAGINATOR.
