NAME

WWW::Google::Diacritize - Interface to Google Diacritize API.

VERSION

Version 0.05

DESCRIPTION

This module is intended for anyone who wants to write applications that can interact with the Google Diacritize API. With this, you can add diacritical marks to text in your webpages /app. The process of diacritizing is also called "Tashkeel". Just to clarify, Arabic is not my first language. However I can read it as it's written in the our holy book "Quran". I don't claim to understand the intricacies of the languge.

NOTE: The version v1 of the Google Diacritize API is in Labs, and its features might change unexpectedly until it graduates.

CONSTRUCTOR

The constructor expects your application API, which you can get it for FREE from Google.

    use strict; use warnings;
    use WWW::Google::Diacritize;

    my $api_key = 'Your_API_Key';
    my $diacritize = WWW::Google::Diacritize->new($api_key);

METHODS

set_diacritical_marks()

Sets the diacritical marks to the given text in the given language. Arabic is currently ONLY the supported language. Returns the diacritized text back.
