This tool enables the use of dict.cc over the command line.
With this fork, the original script has become a Python module. Functionality is moved to a Dictcc class and system installation is now possible.
Also, the word suggestions functionality was improved. Main focus lies on the console, which uses a continuous requests session to speed up the process. This latter functionality was also merged to the original code base.
Install dictcc on your system via
python3 setup.py installWhen installed, the tool can be used:
dictcc <word>Enter an interactive cli mode by passing no argument or the -c flag:
dictcc -cAvailable languages: de (prim), en (prim), bg, bs, cs, da, el, eo, es, fi, fr, hr, hu, is, it, la, nl, no, pl, pt, ro, ru, sk, sq, sr, sv, tr.
Choose between languages with the flags -p (primary language)
and -s (secondary language).
Import the dictcc module into your project:
>>> import dictcc
>>> result1, suggestions1 = dictcc.translate('tree', 'en', 'de')
>>> print("Results:", result1)
Results: [['tree [attr.]', 'Baum-'], ... ]
>>> result2, suggestions2 = dictcc.translate('dreiekig', 'en', 'de')
>>> print("Suggestions:", suggestions2)
Suggestions: ['dreieckig']This tool requires tabulate and
BeautifulSoup.
Both dependencies are installed automatically when running python3 setup.py install.
Alternatively, run:
pip install tabulate bs4
