Library for writing Python dictionary for Plover, and generating JSON dictionary file from Python dictionary.

Installation

This package is available on PyPI. To install it, run the command

pip install plover-python-dictionary-lib

This is required to use/run the Python dictionaries that use this library.

Example & usage

• The most common use case would be a Cartesian product of various dictionaries.
• Read the documentation in the source code, and the example/ folder (on GitHub).
• Useful resources: Frequently used dictionary components (feel free to edit the wiki)

Generate JSON

The Python dictionary must be written with this plugin.

Call .print_items() on the main Dictionary object. (see also the example dictionaries above)

Note: because of an incompatibility between Plover and the plover_stroke library, sometimes the JSON dictionary may not work in Plover.

For example: if this code is included at the end of the Python dictionary file named dictionary.py

if __name__=="__main__":
	dictionary.print_items()

(assuming that the main dictionary object is named dictionary) then running python dictionary.py will print the dictionary as JSON to the standard output.
