cihaidata-unihan - tool to build unihan into simple data format CSV format. Part of the cihai project.

Unihan's data is disperved across multiple files in the format of:

U+3400      kCantonese      jau1
U+3400      kDefinition     (same as U+4E18 丘) hillock or mound
U+3400      kMandarin       qiū
U+3401      kCantonese      tim2
U+3401      kDefinition     to lick; to taste, a mat, bamboo bark
U+3401      kHanyuPinyin    10019.020:tiàn
U+3401      kMandarin       tiàn

script/process.py will download Unihan.zip and build all files into a single tabular CSV (default output: ./data/unihan.csv):

char,ucn,kCantonese,kDefinition,kHanyuPinyin,kMandarin
丘,U+3400,jau1,(same as U+4E18 丘) hillock or mound,,qiū
㐁,U+3401,tim2,"to lock; to taste, a mat, bamboo bark",10019.020:"tiàn,tiàn"

process.py supports command line arguments. See script/process.py CLI arguments for information on how you can specify custom columns, files, download URL's and output destinations.

Being built against unit tests. See the Travis Builds and Revision History.

$ ./scripts/process.py

Creates data/unihan.csv.

See script/process.py CLI arguments for advanced usage examples.

Structure

# dataset metadata, schema information.
datapackage.json

# (future) when this package is stable, unihan.csv will be provided
data/unihan.csv

# stores downloaded Unihan.zip and it's txt file contents (.gitignore'd)
data/build_files/

# script to download + build a SDF csv of unihan.
scripts/process.py

# unit tests to verify behavior / consistency of builder

# python 2/3 compatibility modules
script/_compat.py
script/unicodecsv.py

# python module, public-facing python API.

# utility / helper functions

Cihai is not required for:

• data/unihan.csv - simple data format compatible csv file.
• scripts/process.py - create a data/unihan.csv.

When this module is stable, data/unihan.csv will have prepared releases, without requires using scripts/process.py. process.py will not require external libraries.
