Python library for Anki, the spaced repetition flashcard program

Anki

Core Python library for Anki, the spaced repetition flashcard program.

About

Anki is a spaced repetition program that helps you remember things efficiently. This package contains the Python layer of Anki's core: it wraps the Rust backend (rslib) and exposes the primary API used by the desktop app and add-ons alike.

It provides access to:

• Collection — open, read, and write an Anki .anki2 database
• Notes & Cards — create, update, and query notes and cards
• Decks & Models — manage deck configurations and note types
• Scheduler — the FSRS/SM-2 scheduling algorithms
• Media — media file management and sync
• Import / Export — support for .apkg, .colpkg, and other formats
• Sync — synchronisation with AnkiWeb
• Hooks — event system for extending behaviour

Installation

pip install anki

Note: anki is the headless library. If you want the full desktop application, install aqt instead, which depends on this package.

Add-on development

If you are building an Anki add-on, this is the package that gives you access to the collection and scheduling internals. See the Add-on Guide for full documentation.
