⁠Language detection API

This repository contains a dockerized version of Elasticsearch⁠ with the [https://github.com/jprante/elasticsearch-langdetect](Language⁠ Detect plugin). The goal is to have a language detection API up and working within a 2 minutes. The precision is over 99% for 53 languages.

To run it:

docker run --name language-detection-api --rm -p 9200:9200 antoinefinkelstein/elasticsearch-langdetect

You're ready to use it! For example:

curl -XPOST 'localhost:9200/_langdetect?pretty' -d 'This is a test'
{
  "profile" : "/langdetect/",
  "languages" : [ {
    "language" : "en",
    "probability" : 0.9999972283490304
  } ]
}
