Suspends duplicate cards from Anki decks.

Unlike the plugin, this project runs outside of the Anki window, is simpler, and supports arbitrary text files.

• Python 3.8
• The anki package installed
• Ubuntu 20.04 LTS (recommended)

1. Create the wordlist
2. Suspend the cards

1. Copy the collection.anki2 file from your Anki profile to the project root
2. Run cat wordlist.txt | ./suspend_duplicates.py
3. Make a backup of your Anki profile.
4. Copy the collection.anki2 in this directory back to your profile, replacing the old one (but do not overwrite your backup copy)

On Linux, the Anki profile is usually at ~/.local/share/Anki2/User 1/.

1. Delete wordlist.txt if it exists
2. Paste the text into input.txt
3. Run cat input.txt | ./text_to_wordlist.py > wordlist.txt

Some text that can be used to generate a wordlist can be found at https://forum.duolingo.com/comment/37599030 . You can just copy and paste the interesting parts with the words. Non-CJK characters will be filtered out by the script.

1. Delete wordlist.txt if it exists
2. Copy the collection.anki2 to the project root
3. Run ./collection_to_wordlist.py > wordlist.txt

You can get the collection.anki2 by creating a separate profile. Just create one, import the .apkg2s, close Anki, then copy out the collection.anki2.

You can also extract the collection.anki2 database out of a .apkg (these are zip files).

• Always make a backup of your Anki collection!
• Make sure Anki is closed while using this project
• Do not use virtualenv
• The current working directory must be in the root of the Git repo
• Currently only the sort field (which is usually the front of the card) is considered. This may be a problem if it contains furigana or if alternative definitions are on the back.
