How to enable Yandex Translate API?

Question

this may sound like a noob question, but it is a big problem for me. I have a file called yandex-translator-java-api-master.zip, and I tried adding that as an external JAR to my eclipse project, but the code wouldn't work; It wouldn't let me import.

This error comes up when i try to import "Translate" Translate cannot be resolved 6 quick fixes available: Create class, create constant, fix proj. setup...etc, etc.

How do i use this??? Where is the .jar i am supposed to import?

And you can not just "connect as a library?" This is usually right click on .jar in the project. — user2413972, Sep 17 '15 at 19:53

zip archive is not the same thing as jar. First, extract jar from zip archive and then add it as dependency. Then you'll be able to import.

UPD: looking closely, I suppose you downloaded that archive from GitHub (or another VCS) and it's just sources of a library. You can not add it as a dependency, but you can, for example, just paste this code in your project's /src/main/. This is an easy solution. If you want to make things the right way, you can a) Search for a compiled library b) Create a module from downloaded sources and add it as dependency
