THIS REPOSITORY IS DEPRECATED. ALL OF ITS CONTENT AND HISTORY HAS BEEN MOVED TO GOOGLE-CLOUD-NODE
Cloud Natural Language API provides natural language understanding technologies to developers, including sentiment analysis, entity analysis, and syntax analysis. This API is part of the larger Cloud Machine Learning API family.
A comprehensive list of changes in each version may be found in the CHANGELOG.

npm install @google-cloud/language
async function quickstart() {
// Imports the Google Cloud client library
const language = require('@google-cloud/language');
// Instantiates a client
const client = new language.LanguageServiceClient();
// The text to analyze
const text = 'Hello, world!';
const document = {
content: text,
type: 'PLAIN_TEXT',
};
// Detects the sentiment of the text
const [result] = await client.analyzeSentiment({document: document});
const sentiment = result.documentSentiment;
console.log(`Text: ${text}`);
console.log(`Sentiment score: ${sentiment.score}`);
console.log(`Sentiment magnitude: ${sentiment.magnitude}`);
}
Samples are in the samples/
directory. Each sample's README.md
has instructions for running its sample.

The Natural Language Node.js Client API Reference documentation also contains samples.
Our client libraries follow the Node.js release schedule. Libraries are compatible with all current active and maintenance versions of Node.js. If you are using an end-of-life version of Node.js, we recommend that you update as soon as possible to an actively supported LTS version.
Google's client libraries support legacy versions of Node.js runtimes on a best-efforts basis with the following warnings:
- Legacy versions are not tested in continuous integration.
- Some security patches and features cannot be backported.
- Dependencies cannot be kept up-to-date.
Client libraries targeting some end-of-life versions of Node.js are available, and
can be installed through npm dist-tags.
The dist-tags follow the naming convention legacy-(version)
.
For example, npm install @google-cloud/language@legacy-8
installs client libraries
for versions compatible with Node.js 8.
This library follows Semantic Versioning.
This library is considered to be stable. The code surface will not change in backwards-incompatible ways unless absolutely necessary (e.g. because of critical security issues) or with an extensive deprecation period. Issues and requests against stable libraries are addressed with the highest priority.
