Missing Bulk-add reading #31

Closed ttempe closed 10 years ago

ttempe commented 11 years ago

If you create card by card, it will work perfectly, but if you import a .txt file with cards formatted using the semicolon division, it won't add the readings. It will add them only in a certain way, which is tedious and cumbersome. If you want to reproduce the "problem" do the following:

  1. create a txt file with 5 cards.
  2. import it, choosing "Chinese" note type and Chinese as deck name.
  3. start to review, they won't have readings.
  4. when on one card, choose Edit and click on Cards... (the window with the css code), don't do anything; now close it.
  5. click the spacebar to reveal the answer of that card. It will now have the proper reading.

The fact is that if you start having 200, 500, 2000 cards it starts to get tedious. Can we get a Bulk-add readings?

Actually, it may be preferable to use "fill missing", to better fit the needs of various users. Incidentally, it could also be used to fill pronunciation (TTS) for when you added cards without a connection to Google TTS.

I'm reluctant because it will make it so easy for users to make mistakes like adding dictionary definitions without any trimming or editing (you can't learn a word if it has a 3-lines-long definition), but I understand the need.

i'm starting some work on this for filling missing sounds to begin with. it then should be easy to adapt to fill readings, or even fill all ... i'll create a pull request when it's done.

Hi Chris, and sorry for the delay. I've been unreasonably busy since I started my new job, and I haven't taken the time to work on Anki (on anything else, for that matter).

Thanks a lot for your contribution. I've tried it out, and it seems to be working just fine, and pretty fast, too. It won't give feedback when it's failing, but we can keep that for later.

Please make a pull request, so you can get credit for your contribution in Github. Also, be careful, you left my name at the top of fill_missing.py.

Yours sincerely,

Thomas TEMPE
