A CLI app to generate anki decks.

A CLI app to generate anki decks.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
From csv file, with configurable parameters, filters and media.
|
Flashcards are a great tool for accelerating language learning.
|
||||||
|
You can choose one from the many databases out there, developed
|
||||||
|
by teachers and very conscientious people. It would be even better
|
||||||
|
it is easy to create new flashcards to satisfy personalized needs.
|
||||||
|
For instance, generating flashcards from your bookmarked words in
|
||||||
|
google translator or dictionary add-on on your browser
|
||||||
|
would be much more effective because you would focus in the words
|
||||||
|
you actually are not familiar with including the ones that are more
|
||||||
|
frequent in your professional or hobby contexts than in default
|
||||||
|
common language use.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
From epub, finding difficult* words in the book and getting their translations.
|
# Usage
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
*I still don't know what 'difficult' will mean. Probably difficult words will be less frequent words that are more frequent in the text than in some corpus, cut above a grade threshold. The grades will map percentiles of frequency.

|
```bash
|
||||||
|
ankimaker csv -i file.csv -o deck.apkg --conf conf.yaml
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
#### Configuration File
|
||||||
|
The configuration file required to convert csv can be
|
||||||
|
generated manually or interactively with the following command:
|
||||||
|
```bash
|
||||||
|
ankimaker make-csv-config -i sample-input.csv -o custon-conf.yaml
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
If you want to create the configuration manually, see instruction
|
||||||
|
in `Manually create configuration file` section.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## Manually create configuration file
|
||||||
|
```yaml
|
||||||
|
AnkimakerConfig:
|
||||||
|
header:
|
||||||
|
question_column: 'original'
|
||||||
|
answer_column: 'translation'
|
||||||
|
separators: \t
|
||||||
|
filters:
|
||||||
|
- - column: 'original language'
|
||||||
|
values: Chinese
|
||||||
|
- column: 'translation language'
|
||||||
|
values: English
|
||||||
|
- - column: 'original language'
|
||||||
|
values: English
|
||||||
|
- column: 'translation language'
|
||||||
|
values: Chinese
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Explaining the fields:
|
||||||
|
* **header**: Row index to be used as column. Use null
|
||||||
|
if nonexistent or just don't insert this field.
|
||||||
|
* **question_column**: Name or index of column to be used as question.
|
||||||
|
* **answer_column**: Name or index of the columns containing the answers. . Use null
|
||||||
|
if nonexistent or just don't insert this field.
|
||||||
|
* **separators**: Select the character that separates cells in your csv.
|
||||||
|
* **filters**: This is a list of groups that will be present in your
|
||||||
|
final deck. Each group is defined by a list of rules that must be fulfilled
|
||||||
|
so the row will be part of the group. For instance, the following filter
|
||||||
|
would keep only the rows whose 'original language' column value
|
||||||
|
is Chinese.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
```yaml
|
||||||
|
filters:
|
||||||
|
- - column: 'original language'
|
||||||
|
values: Chinese
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
This other filer would keep only the rows that 'original language'
|
||||||
|
column is Chinese and 'translation language' column value is
|
||||||
|
any of English or French.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
```yaml
|
||||||
|
filters:
|
||||||
|
- - column: 'original language'
|
||||||
|
values: Chinese
|
||||||
|
- column: 'translation language'
|
||||||
|
values: [English, French]
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
The logic of the groups is that any row satisfying at least
|
||||||
|
one group's rule will be present in the final deck. In short,
|
||||||
|
they're reduced with `or` logic. In the example bellow any row
|
||||||
|
that has 'original language' column value Chinese and any roll
|
||||||
|
that has 'translation language' column value English will be
|
||||||
|
in the final deck.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
```yaml
|
||||||
|
filters:
|
||||||
|
- - column: 'original language'
|
||||||
|
values: Chinese
|
||||||
|
- - column: 'translation language'
|
||||||
|
values: English
|
||||||
|
```
