Yakudatsu (cli)

A simple cli tool to look up Japanese words using jisho.org's API. Additionally, searching for kanji by radicals and browsing tatoeba's database of example sentences is also available.

Tatoeba sentences

Installation

Binaries are directly available from the release tab.

Compilation

Download source and run

make release
sudo make install

Usage

A readline wrapper like rlwrap is strongly recommended if using ykdt interactively (-i or empty input).

ykdt [<words to look up>]
ykdt :[<radicals in kanji>]
ykdt _[<expressions in  sentences>]

When looking up kanji, * (or ＊) can be used to add a radical that can't be easily typed, e.g. 气.

Sources

Dictionary definitions retrieved using jisho's API.

To search kanji by radicals, the radkfile needs to be installed in either ~/.local/share/ on Linux or ~\AppData\Local\ on Windows. Kanji stroke information extracted from kanjidic2.
