## 📝 Description
> **Note**
> This package needs a new maintainer, as I currently do not have enough time to continue development
> of this package. Writing modifications back into the Anki database is currently disabled,
> in particular because of issue [#137](https://github.com/klieret/AnkiPandas/issues/137).
> Please reach out to me if you are interested in getting involved!
[Anki](https://apps.ankiweb.net/) is one of the most popular flashcard
system for spaced repetition learning,
[pandas](https://pandas.pydata.org/) is the most popular python package
for data analysis and manipulation. So what could be better than to
bring both together?
With `AnkiPandas` you can use `pandas` to easily analyze or manipulate
your Anki flashcards.
**Features**:
- **Select**: Easily select arbitrary subsets of your cards, notes or
reviews using `pandas` ([one of many
introductions](https://medium.com/dunder-data/6fcd0170be9c),
[official
documentation](https://pandas.pydata.org/pandas-docs/stable/user_guide/indexing.html))
- **Visualize**: Use pandas\' powerful [built in
tools](https://pandas.pydata.org/pandas-docs/stable/user_guide/visualization.html)
or switch to the even more versatile
[seaborn](https://seaborn.pydata.org/) (statistical analysis) or
[matplotlib](https://matplotlib.org/) libraries
- **Manipulate**: Apply fast bulk operations to the table (e.g. add
tags, change decks, set field contents, suspend cards, \...) or
iterate over the table and perform these manipulations step by step.
**⚠️ This functionality is currently disabled until [#137](https://github.com/klieret/AnkiPandas/issues/137) has been resolved! ⚠️**
- **Import and Export**: Pandas can export to (and import from) csv,
MS Excel, HTML, JSON, \... ([io
documentation](https://pandas.pydata.org/pandas-docs/stable/user_guide/io.html))
**Pros**:
- **Easy installation**: Install via python package manager
(independent of your Anki installation)
- **Simple**: Just one line of code to get started
- **Convenient**: Bring together information about
[cards](https://apps.ankiweb.net/docs/manual.html#cards),
[notes](https://apps.ankiweb.net/docs/manual.html#notes-&-fields),
[models](https://apps.ankiweb.net/docs/manual.html#note-types),
[decks](https://apps.ankiweb.net/docs/manual.html#decks) and more in
just one table!
- **Fully documented**: Documentation on [readthedocs](https://ankipandas.readthedocs.io/)
- **Well tested**: More than 100 unit tests to keep everything in
check
Alternatives: If your main goal is to add new cards, models and more,
you can also take a look at the
[genanki](https://github.com/kerrickstaley/genanki) project.
## 📦 Installation
`AnkiPandas` is available as [pypi
package](https://pypi.org/project/ankipandas/) and can be installed or
upgrade with the [python package
manager](https://pip.pypa.io/en/stable/):
```sh
pip3 install --user --upgrade ankipandas
```
### Development installation
For the latest development version you can also work from a cloned
version of this repository:
```sh
git clone https://github.com/klieret/ankipandas/
cd ankipandas
pip3 install --user --upgrade --editable .
```
If you want to help develop this package further, please also install the
[pre-commit](https://pre-commit.ci/) hooks and use [gitmoji](https://gitmoji.dev/):
```sh
pre-commit install
gitmoji -i
```
## 🔥 Let's get started!
Starting up is as easy as this:
```python
from ankipandas import Collection
col = Collection()
```
And `col.notes` will be dataframe containing all notes, with additional
methods that make many things easy. Similarly, you can access cards or
reviews using `col.cards` or `col.revs`.
If called without any argument `Collection()` tries to find your Anki
database by itself. However this might take some time. To make it
easier, simply supply (part of) the path to the database and (if you
have more than one user) your Anki user name, e.g.
`Collection(".local/share/Anki2/", user="User 1")` on many Linux
installations.
To get information about the interpretation of each column, use
`print(col.notes.help_cols())`.
Take a look at the [documentation](https://ankipandas.readthedocs.io/)
to find out more about more about the available methods!
Some basic examples:
## 📈 Analysis
**More examples**: [Analysis
documentation](https://ankipandas.readthedocs.io/en/latest/examples.html),
[projects that use `AnkiPandas`](https://ankipandas.readthedocs.io/en/latest/projects_with_ap.html).
Show a histogram of the number of reviews (repetitions) of each card for
all decks:
```python
col.cards.hist(column="creps", by="cdeck")
```
Show the number of leeches per deck as pie chart:
```python
cards = col.cards.merge_notes()
selection = cards[cards.has_tag("leech")]
selection["cdeck"].value_counts().plot.pie()
```
Find all notes of model `MnemoticModel` with empty `Mnemotic` field:
```python
notes = col.notes.fields_as_columns()
notes.query("model=='MnemoticModel' and 'Mnemotic'==''")
```
## 🛠️ Manipulations
> **Warning**
> Writing the database has currently been disabled until
> [#137](https://github.com/klieret/AnkiPandas/issues/137) has been resolved.
> Help is much appreciated!
> **Warning**
> **Please be careful and test this well!**
> Ankipandas will create a backup of your database before writing, so you can always restore the previous state. Please make sure that everything is working before continuing to use Anki normally!
Add the `difficult-japanese` and `marked` tag to all notes that contain
the tags `Japanese` and `leech`:
```python
notes = col.notes
selection = notes[notes.has_tags(["Japanese", "leech"])]
selection = selection.add_tag(["difficult-japanese", "marked"])
col.notes.update(selection)
col.write(modify=True) # Overwrites your database after creating a backup!
```
Set the `language` field to `English` for all notes of model
`LanguageModel` that are tagged with `English`:
```python
notes = col.notes
selection = notes[notes.has_tag(["English"])].query("model=='LanguageModel'").copy()
selection.fields_as_columns(inplace=True)
selection["language"] = "English"
col.notes.update(selection)
col.write(modify=True)
```
Move all cards tagged `leech` to the deck `Leeches Only`:
```python
cards = col.cards
selection = cards[cards.has_tag("leech")]
selection["cdeck"] = "Leeches Only"
col.cards.update(selection)
col.write(modify=True)
```
