bkrs

Convert bkrs.info database to Dictan(zd/fdb/dsl) and GoldenDict(dsl) format

Features

• Index by pinyin (汉语拼音)
• Index by traditional characters (繁體字)
• Show traditional variant where appropriate
• Examples injected into correspondent articles
• Abbreviations added

Dictan version is combined: RU->ZH and ZH->RU versions in single file.

GoldenDict version contains two separate dictionaries: RU->ZH (with pinyin, traditional index and examples) and ZH->RU.

Installation

• Install Node.js
• git clone https://github.com/ukoloff/bkrs.git
• cd bkrs
• npm install --production

Converting

• Download current BKRS sources (*_yymmdd.gz files, see bottom of page)

  or just say node lib/fetch ;-)

• Put them into src folder

• npm start [--tags=format]

• See sources for makezd in src folder

Feed src/articles.txt to makezd or Dictan converter.

Command npm start --tags=dsl will generate DSL formatted sources, so feed it to new Dictan converter. In addition src/*.dsl are good for GoldenDict.

Nightly builds

This converter runs every night with fresh BKRS sources. Generated files are:

• bkrs.zd - for Dictan
• bkrs.zip (mirror) - for GoldenDict
• bkrs-min.zip (mirror) - for GoldenDict on Android (packed with dictzip)

Development

• npm install
• npm test
