NoneType Error while trying to use Py for auto text file translation

Im trying to develop something that is able to accept a txt file and translate what ever is in it to the languages which I have given it. I made a small test with this as I dont use python but I get this error when trying to translate.

AttributeError: 'NoneType' object has no attribute 'group'"

The Code:

import re
import googletrans
from googletrans import Translator

file_translator = Translator()

tFile = open('demo.txt', 'r')

if tFile.mode == 'r':
    content = tFile.read()
    print(content)

result = file_translator.translate(content, dest='fr')

with open('output.txt', 'w') as outFile:
    outFile.write(result.text)
Solution

  • It's a problem with version 3.0.0. You need to install latest version:

    pip install googletrans==4.0.0-rc1

    Or, if you use PyCharm, you can do it here: enter image description here enter image description here
