Add support for Anki (output format)

Open humenda opened this issue 6 years ago • 4 comments

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?

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.

Todo:

  • [ ] Decide which data should go into each flash card
  • [ ] Choose sensible subset of entries for anki deck
