Request for a standalone version of the Anki Addon #7

Closed CodeWithMa closed 1 year ago

CodeWithMa commented 1 year ago

Hello,

I really appreciate the functionality of the Anki addon that you have created. However, I was wondering if it would be possible to have a standalone version of the application. This would allow me to use the application without having to always keep Anki open.

I understand that the addon was designed specifically for Anki and may have dependencies that require it to be integrated with the Anki platform.

Would it be possible to consider creating a standalone version of the application? I believe this would be a great addition to your project and would provide more options for users.

Thank you for your consideration.

Hey,

Thanks for the suggestion! There was actually a minor internal issue that originally prevented me from implementing this, but I believe it should be fixed now. Before today, the following __init__.py file was always importing anki modules, but this if statement should hopefully solve it so it only gets imported if it was ran by Anki:

With all that being said, you should be able to run the server without Anki now. I added some instructions on how to run it here. Please let me know if it works!
