GlossaryGenerator

Glossary Generator that uses the DuckDuckGo Instant Answer API to generate a glossary in formats such as DOCX, JSON, CSV and TXT.

How to use

Make sure you have Python 3.x installed.
Make sure you have an Internet connection.
Run setup.sh. This will install all required modules. This is only needed once.
Write all terms in the file terms.txt. Feel free to write your own script to populate this file.
Run the script glossary_generator.py.
That's it! By default the glossary will be in the files in the folder output inside the script directory. You can change this in the configuration file. Configuration documentation below.

All configuration is maintained in the file config.json.
