= THE Dictionary
:author: nirokay
:copyright: GPL-3.0

== About

**THE Dictionary** is a basic and crappy clone of online, user-run
dictionaries like https://www.urbandictionary.com/[Urban Dictionary].

== Changelog

See the <>.

== Capabilities

=== New definitions

Well, kinda necessary for a user-run dictionary... you can add your
new definitions at `/submit/`.

=== Querying definitions

All definition queries are available under `/definitions/`, while a
single definition is available under `/definition/{id}` (for example:
`definition/24`).

You can also search for definitions of a specific word with
`/definitions/{word}` (for example: `/definition/word`).

SQLite query parameters are also available at your disposal:

* `/definitions/a%` queries all entries staring with `a`
* `/definitions/%the%` queries all entries that have `the` in them

== Security

The security of this webserver is unknown and probably contains bugs.
Running this server on the open internet is not recommended. Use a
local network instead! :)
