Easy Anki

Fetch translations and definitions using ChatGPT and generate your Anki flashcards from an array of words, a .csv or your exported .txt Anki deck.

Install the gem and add to the application's Gemfile by executing:

$ bundle add easy-anki

If bundler is not being used to manage dependencies, install the gem by executing:

$ gem install easy-anki

Get your API key and organization ID from https://platform.openai.com/account/api-keys

You can either create a .env from the .env_sample file and add your credentials, the default values will be fetched from this file, or configure the gem, for example in an initializer file.

EasyAnki.configure do |config|
  config.openai_access_token = ENV.fetch("OPENAI_ACCESS_TOKEN")
  config.openai_organization_id = ENV.fetch("OPENAI_ORGANIZATION_ID")
  config.target_language = ENV.fetch("TARGET_LANGUAGE")
end

words = [{ text: "rambling" }, { text: "beckoned", context: "something else to add to the flashcard" }] # or
words = EasyAnki.parse_input_file('csv-input.csv') # or an exported .txt file from Anki
EasyAnki.generate_flashcards(words) # generate CSV file to import to Anki
