For Linux users, see the add_sentences.sh script to automate everything below.
For Windows users, you'll have to follow the steps below everytime you want to add sentences to your deck.
Before you start, make sure to back up your deck! The commands below assume the following:
- The deck name is
日本語. - The file name to use is
fields.json. - The field containing the word is
Word. - The field containing the sentence is
Sentence.
First, use get_fields.py to get all of your words and existing sentences into a JSON file.
python get_fields.py --deck 日本語 --output fields.json --key Word Sentence
Second, use sentence_scraper.py to add sentences to the same JSON file.
python sentence_scraper.py --input fields.json --word Word --sentence Sentence
Third, use set_fields.py to apply the contents of the JSON file to your deck.
python set_fields.py --deck 日本語 --input fields.json --key Word --fields Sentence
It is highly recommended to reuse the same JSON file so you don't have to re-scrape sentences for all of your words every time you rerun the commands!
