Generate Sqlite relational databases from the JMDICT japanese dictionary.
SQL is generated using scripts written in dart;
Download required packages with
`pub get`
bash scripts are in the src directory to download dictionaries with wget and uncompressed them with gunzip.
sqlite3 db files are created and populated using the sqlite3 binary.
sudo apt install sqlite3
Bash scripts src/run.bash can be called with arguments
bash run.bash <kanji|expression|help> [arguments]
arguments:
--download download JMdict (expression) or kanjidic2 (kanji)
--sql [languages] generate sql from downloaded dictionary.
--init create db file tables
--populate populate db file from generated sql
--clean [what] delete db and/or sql file
Example: Reset previously generated expression database, generate sql for english sense and populate the db:
bash src/run.bash expression --clean --init --sql "eng" --populate
bash src/run.bash kanji --clean --init --sql "en" --populate
The src/create_sql_expression.dart and src/create_sql_kanji.dart scripts can be called with arguments to process only some languages.
The languages are in ISO 639-3 format for expression and ISO 639-2 for kanji, for example:
English and French
dart src/expression/create_sql.dart eng fre
English only
dart src/expression/create_sql.dart eng
dart src/kanji/create_sql.dart en
note: run.bash allow to pass language arguments with quotes, for example:
bash src/run.bash expression --sql "eng fre"
