Usage

If you are translating a single page static website, the index file should be named with its language code, for example en.html instead of being called index.html

For multi page static sites the origin folder should be named with its language code, for example /en

const arjanTranslate = require('arjan-translate')

//REGION is the AWS region of your IAM role ex. 'use-east-1'
//PROFILE is the name of your desired AWS IAM profile ex. 'deafult'

arjanTranslate.Build('REGION', 'PROFILE', function(err, data){
  if(err) console.log(err)
  else {
    //FROM is the language code of your origin file ex. 'en'
    //TO is the language code of your destination file ex. 'es'
    arjanTranslate.TranslateSite('FROM', 'TO');
  }
})
