anki_deck

anki_deck is a simple tool to generate Anki flashcards from the xdxf dictionaries.

Based on https://www.reddit.com/r/Anki/comments/34imaw/export_from_goldendict_to_anki_deck_working_method/

To use anki_deck you need the following data:

  • XDXF dictionary file.

  • Words file - list of words you want to put in flashcards. It's just a plain file with one word per line:

    someword
another

  • Audio samples (optional) in .ogg format.

anki_deck can create plain text flashcards file or .apkg deck. Both of them may be imported by Anki. To import text file you will need to create a card with fields and deck .apkg may be imported without extra actions.

You may use it without install like:

python -m anki_deck.cli ....

Or install with setyp.py and use:

anki_deck ...

Usage:

# To generate flashcards text file
anki_deck -d /<path>/<to>/dict.xdxf -a /<path>/<to>/audio -w mywords.txt txt

# To generate a deck
anki_deck -d /<path>/<to>/dict.xdxf -a /<path>/<to>/audio -w mywords.txt deck MyDeck  # or MyDeck.apkg
anki_deck -d /<path>/<to>/dict.xdxf -a /<path>/<to>/audio -w mywords.txt deck MyDeck -n "Deck name"

If you put dict and audio in a directory with structure:

dictdata/
  audio/
  dict.xdxf

then you may use:

anki_deck -i /<path>/<to>/dictdata -w mywords.txt ...

Also if words file is named words.txt you may skip -w:

anki_deck -i /<path>/<to>/dictdata ...

See help for all options:

anki_deck -h

Text flashcards

Text flashcards format:

<word> <translations> <transcription> <sound>

To import flashcards file create card with fields:

  • Front
  • Back
  • Transcription
  • Sound

Front Template:

{{Front}}
<br>
{{Transcription}}
<br>
{{Sound}}

Back Template:

{{FrontSide}}
<hr id=answer>
{{Back}}

Notes

Example of converting DSL to XDXF:

dictzip -d -k En-Ru-Apresyan.dsl.dz
makedict -i dsl -o xdxf En-Ru-Apresyan.dsl

Example of extracting sounds from .lsa:

lingvosound2resdb -l ~/.goldendict/content/Speech.lsa
rm -rf soundfiles
resdatabase2dir -i res.rifo -d audio
rm res.r* ; rm SoundE.ogg ; rm Speech.lsa
