# WikDict dictionary generator

This generator extracts data from a Virtuoso database filled with [dbnary]

data. Details on how to set up such a database can be found in the [virtuoso

directory](virtuoso). The extracted data is then used to generate WikDict

dictionaries. These dictionaries main usage is at the [WikDict

website][wikdict.com].

[wikdict.com]: http://www.wikdict.com

# Usage

  

After setting up the Virtuoso database, run

    git clone [email protected]:karlb/wikdict-gen.git

    cd wikdict-gen

    make

Use the resulting dictionaries in `dictionaries/wdweb` with [wikdict-web], try a quick lookup using the `search` command like

    src/run.py search de en haus

or use the dictionaries in `dictionaries/generic` for any other use case.
