ArtenoAPI: Translation, Geolocation, QR Codes, and More in One API

As a web developer, I’ve often faced challenges when choosing APIs for various features in my projects. While the process isn't overly complicated, it can still be time-consuming and frustrating. Thus, I decided to create ArtenoAPI, which is a multi-functional API, can reduce this hassle.

Currently, ArtenoAPI is available exclusively on RapidAPI, and I wanted to share it with you all here.


What Can ArtenoAPI Do?

ArtenoAPI supports various features, including:

  • Translation:

    Supports translation between 230+ languages with advanced features like auto language detection and batch translation.

  • IP Geolocation:

    Retrieves location and network data for any IP address in a well-structured format.

  • QR Code Generation:

    Generate high-quality QR codes with error correction levels, available in SVG or Base64 formats.

  • HTML to Markdown:

    Convert HTML code to Markdown with a variety of customization options.

  • Markdown to HTML:

    Useful for blog-like websites handling user posts and comments by converting Markdown to HTML.

  • And More...

    From keyword extraction to sentiment analysis, ArtenoAPI offers many tools to simplify your development workflow.

    It provide a set of functions, reducing the hassle of implementing different APIs.

  • Cost-Effective:

    It has a free plan, and paid plans are cheaper in price.

  • Ease of Use:

  • Continuous Updates:

    New features will be added in the future, taking user feedback ans suggestions into account.

  • Free Plan Available:

    There is a free plan available which makes it risk-free to test the ArtenoAPI.


How to Get Started

  1. First, sign in to your RapidAPI account, or create a new account if you don't have one.
  2. Search for "ArtenoAPI" in the search bar, or visit this link: https://rapidapi.com/codemasterunited/api/artenoapi
  3. Subscribe to the free plan, and then you will get an API key which will be used in the request authorization. (Note: RapidAPI do not need any credit card information to subscribe to the free plan, so rest assured.)
  4. Below is an example of using the API key to translate a simple 'Hello World' string to Spanish, using requests module in Python.

Example: Translating Text

Below is a simple example of translating text with ArtenoAPI, via Python's request module:

import requests

url = "https://artenoapi.p.rapidapi.com/translate"

payload = {
    "source_text": "Hello World",
    "source_language": "en",
    "target_language": "es"
}
headers = {
    "x-rapidapi-key": "YOUR_API_KEY",
    "x-rapidapi-host": "artenoapi.p.rapidapi.com",
    "Content-Type": "application/json"
}

response = requests.post(url, json=payload, headers=headers)

print(response.json())
Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode

Replace YOUR_API_KEY with your API key, and the response would look like this:

{
    "status": "success",
    "data": {
        "translations": [
            {
                "source_text": "Hello World",
                "translation": "Hola Mundo",
                "source_language": "en",
                "target_language": "es"
            }
        ]
    },
    "message": "Translation has been completed successfully."
}
Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode

This is the usual response structure, except for errors.

Additional Tools

RapidAPI provides a request playground to experiment with endpoints. You can test various endpoints (features) and get ready to use code snippets in different programming languages.

Complete documentation is available here.


Final Thoughts:

While I can’t guarantee ArtenoAPI will suit everyone’s needs, I hope it may be useful for many developers. Your opinions and suggestions are most welcome.

Thanks for reading till end, and I hope you’ll give ArtenoAPI a try! 😊
