Add support for Anki (output format) #7

Open humenda opened 6 years ago

humenda commented 6 years ago

Anki is a program to help memorising translations using flash cards. These could be auto-generated from FD dictionaries. The project is at https://apps.ankiweb.net/

There are free and open versions both for desktop computers and Android.

Found format description. Apparently, .apkg files are zipped sqlite databases.

I've created anki decks by uploading a csv on their website. So some CSV->anki converter must already exist.

When creating the decks, I found a rough importance rating very valuable. Is there already some consensus on how to encode importance or usage frequency information in our dictionaries?

karlb commented 6 years ago

The two most promising ways to automate Anki to import and publish new decks seem to be

  1. https://foosoft.net/projects/anki-connect/
  2. https://github.com/patarapolw/ankisync

See https://github.com/freedict/tools/tree/master for the current state of an implementation using ankisync.
