The code is currently undocumented, and is certainly not idiomatic Go. Pull requests are welcome!
Sample code can be found in gostardict/samples.
The project was started as an attempt to read stardict dictionaries in language learning webservice and grew into a tool supporting several dictionary formats.
Current limitations:
- Whole dictionary and index are fully loaded into memory for fast random access
- DictZip format is not supported, it is processed as a simple GZip format (means that no random blocks access is supported as in DictZip)
- Syn files are not processed
- There's no recovering from errors (means that dictionaries should be well formed)
Not tested but should be working in theory (I didn't find dictionaries with those properties in place):
- 64bit offsets
- multi typed dictionary fields
func NewDictionary(path string, name string) (*Dictionary, error) - returns gostardict.Dictionary struct. path - path to dictionary files, name - name of dictionary to parse
func (d Dictionary) GetBookName() string - returns dictionary' book name (from ifo file)
func (d Dictionary) GetWordCount() uint64 - returns dictionary' word count (from ifo file)
