問題
Python程式碼一直用著免費的Google翻譯API外掛 googletrans ，這兩天突然就報錯了：
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "xxx.py", line 5, in <module>
result = translator.translate("Result from google translator", dest="zh-CN")
File "/usr/lib/python3.4/site-packages/googletrans/client.py", line 172, in translate
data = self._translate(text, dest, src)
File "/usr/lib/python3.4/site-packages/googletrans/client.py", line 75, in _translate
token = self.token_acquirer.do(text)
File "/usr/lib/python3.4/site-packages/googletrans/gtoken.py", line 180, in do
self._update()
File "/usr/lib/python3.4/site-packages/googletrans/gtoken.py", line 59, in _update
code = unicode(self.RE_TKK.search(r.text).group(1)).replace('var ', '')
AttributeError: 'NoneType' object has no attribute 'group'
單獨寫個測試：
from googletrans import Translator;
if __name__ == "__main__":
translator = Translator()
result = translator.translate("Result from google translator", dest="zh-CN")
print(result.text)
result = translator.translate("使用免費谷歌自動翻譯API", dest="en")
print(result.text)
曝出同樣的錯誤。
解決辦法
谷歌爸爸的翻譯API介面進行了改動，讓一票翻譯的軟體包不好使了。問題影響是全球性的，所以GayHub上很快就跟進討論，並提交程式碼修復。程式碼在手，方案我有，三步操作讓 googletrans 重新好使：
googletrans
開啟終端，三個命令搞定問題：
pip uninstall googletrans git clone https://github.com/BoseCorp/py-googletrans.git cd ./py-googletrans && python setup.py install
