TypesRestMem

TypesRestMem is a TypeScript REST client for RemoteTM servers. It speaks RemoteTM's existing, open REST API — ticket-based authentication, memory management, TU search/storage, TMX import/export — from any Node/TypeScript application. RemoteTM itself is unchanged.

Installation

npm install typesrestmem

Quick start

import { RestMemory, RemoteUtils } from "typesrestmem";

const ticket = await RemoteUtils.getTicket("https://tm.example.com", "user", "password");
const memories = await RemoteUtils.getRemoteMemories("https://tm.example.com", ticket);

const tm = await RestMemory.open("https://tm.example.com", "user", "password", "myMemory");

const matches = await tm.searchTranslation("Hello world", "en-US", "es-ES", 70);
for (const match of matches) {
    console.log(match.similarity + "% - " + match.target.toString());
}

await tm.close();

API

RestMemory.open(server, user, password, memoryName) authenticates, opens the named memory, and returns a ready-to-use instance. Every instance method returns a Promise, since every call is a network round trip:

Method	REST command
close()	closeMemory
deleteDatabase()	removeMemory
commit()	commit
searchTranslation(text, srcLang, tgtLang, similarity, caseSensitive?)	searchTranslation
searchAll(text, srcLang, similarity, caseSensitive?)	searchAll
concordanceSearch(text, srcLang, limit?, isRegexp?, caseSensitive?)	concordanceSearch
storeTu(tu)	storeTu
getTu(tuid)	getTu
removeTu(tuid)	removeTu
getAllClients() / getAllLanguages() / getAllProjects() / getAllSubjects()	memoryClients / memoryLanguages / memoryProjects / memorySubjects
storeTMX(tmxFile, project?, subject?, client?)	zips the file, uploads it, then importTMX
exportMemory(tmxFile, langs, srcLang)	exportMemory, then downloads the resulting file
batchTranslate(params)	batchTranslate

RemoteUtils.getTicket(server, user, password) and RemoteUtils.getRemoteMemories(server, ticket) are the two calls needed before a memory is opened — a "browse remote server, pick a memory" flow.

searchTranslation returns Match[] ({ id, source, target, origin, type, similarity, properties }) — the shared type from typesmatch, imported from there directly:

import type { Match } from "typesmatch";
