AnkiTools 0.3.1

an Anki *.apkg and collection.anki2 reader and editor

AnkiTools

An Anki *.apkg and collection.anki2 reader and editor to work with in Python. Also included a module on AnkiConnect.

I also created a new sync system called AnkiDirect.

The *.apkg format specification can be viewed from Anki decks collaboration Wiki and AnkiDroid. In my AnkiDirect, I tried to comply with the format specification as much as possible.

Installation

pip install AnkiTools

Features

• Read and write to Anki database in Application Data.
• Read and create Anki file without Anki
• Convert back and forth to Excel.

Examples

import json
from collections import OrderedDict

from AnkiTools import AnkiDirect


if __name__ == '__main__':
    with open('notes.json') as f:
        data = json.load(f, object_pairs_hook=OrderedDict)

    api = AnkiDirect()
    api.add(data)
    api.conn.commit()

where notes.json is
