thats how I did: https://github.com/mouuff/Google-Translate-API/blob/master/gtranslate.py much smaller, faster, less imports

Seems the page is no longer there. I am pretty new in python and looking to use Google Vision API and Translate API to extract text from image store on my local system and then translate and print the text to a file. The issue I am facing is that I am able to use the Vision API and extract the text (which is not in English) but not able to crack the code to translate it to English and store it in a file. Any help is appreciated.
