Re-implement add word to dictionary

Open davidkristoffersen opened this issue 3 years ago • 8 comments

The user dictionary functionality was removed in the rewrite in pr #232.

I only use this extension as a spelling checker in vscode so I hope this feature gets added again soon!

Even vscode itself is marked as a spellcheck error and there is not quickfix option to add it to any dictionary.

I would argues that user level dictionary is of less use than a repository dictionary, as you do not really want to force each developer to add his own dictionary.

In fact in our-codebase we already use two spellcheckers cspell and spellcheck and both of them are configured to use the same in-repo dictionary, like https://github.com/ansible/vscode-ansible/blob/main/.config/dictionary.txt

It would be very useful if this extension would allow us to configure a path to a dictionary file. The file format for dictionaries if very simple and portable between tools: any line that does not start with # is a word, empty lines are ignored.

If that option path-to-dictionary, could be configurable also at repository level, we can reuse these dictionaries.

An alternative here would be to allow the disabling of spell check as it can be provided by other plugins (as ssbarnea mentioned 2 cspell and spellcheck)

It will be a very interesting feature.

ps: thanks for the extension, it is very useful

Very useful extension. Please extend the support to add words to dictionary.

I can’t find an option to disable spell checking, can we please add this?

I also want to see this feature. Or can we have a way to specify the path to a file that contains "ignored_words" ?

Hello @znck. Any news about this issue? The ignored_words from @thangckt is a good alternative as welll.

Maybe a .grammarlyignore file of words
