Kindle Vocabulary Importer (With Translation)

Background

Every time you are checking a word in Kindle built-in dictionary, the device remembers the word in a small SQLite database that this project utilizes.

The idea behind the project was to export those words (along with translation) into CSV file that contains flashcards recognizable by Anki app.

Requirements

• .NET Core
• vocab.db (/Volumes/Kindle/system/vocabulary/vocab.db)
• Anki (https://apps.ankiweb.net/)

Translation

At the moment the only supported language is Polish. I am not planning on extending it to support other languages anytime soon, but would gladly appreciate contributors––adding a translation for other languages is as simple as implementing IFlashcardTranslator interface.

Installation

Just clone the repository and you're good to go.

Usage

1. Put your vocab.db inside the project folder (sample vocab.db is included in the project).

2. Run the program with parameters:

    dotnet run KindleVocabularyImporter [-t | -translate] <country_iso> [-e | -exporter] <exporter> [-f | -formatter] <formatter>
    
    Example:
    
    dotnet run KindleVocabularyImporter -t "PL" -e "html" -f "html"
