I want to copy my stories into anki but so far I just copy and paste them, is there a faster way ? My hands hurt from so much work and I would prefer to do my reviews that wasting so much time copy-pasting, so if anyone can help me please help.
And I did do a search and coudn't find anything useful

somewhere I read about a plugin for Anki that imports all of the stories, but I can't recall where.

Is this what you mean?

Or are you simply complaining that you have to hit "control-C" and then "control-V" in anki for each card?

If you're trying to import your stories into an already-made RTK deck, franki will work for that. However, on Windows, looks like the setup is somewhat involved (see the section at the top of the page). On Linux it just worked.

I just tried to use franki, but I got an error that I do not know how to fix:


$ ./franki-1.4.py --help
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "./franki-1.4.py", line 17, in <module>
import anki
ImportError: No module named anki

it's not too bad now the libanki path has been set in the script, you only have to install python which is straightforward

I've updated the readme for unix -- if that doesn't help let me know the details

Have you got anki installed? The problem is that either you don't have the anki python library (comes with anki) installed, or it isn't in your path.

UGHHHHHHHHHHHH

I JUST found the readme above the franki part of http://ichi2.net/anki/wiki/ContribFugounashi . That is extremely irritating as it could have saved me an hour of searching on google for the anki library. That readme should be WAY more pronounced because right now it just looks like another program. Maybe put the header in all caps or put it in a box with a red background.

Well, the good news is that I was able to download libanki from github and I was able to install it after having a nice reunion with dependency hell. For anyone that has 10.6.4 like I do here are the commands I had to execute:


$ cd Desktop/dae-libanki-ea32bce/
$ python setup.py

ERROR: You need simplejson!

-h for help

franki-1.4.py: error: missing required option

YAAAAAYY IT FINALLY WORKS! Now to figure out how to use it...


Seriously though, getting this thing to RUN should not be this difficult.

And here we go: this is what I have done with my new knowledge. It is essentially the same thing as the original poster is trying to to, but just a tiny bit more complicated.

there are osx instructions available now, you don't have to install anything: http://ichi2.net/anki/wiki/ContribFugounashi#readme
