An in-memory, work-in-progress java api for wiktionary.org.

Right now the only feature is that you can check if a (german) word is a noun (based on a dump of de.wiktionary.org).

Usage

1. Add the artifact to your classpath (right now git clone ..., mvn install, add maven dep etc.)

2. Get the dump from http://dumps.wikimedia.org/dewiktionary/latest/dewiktionary-latest-pages-articles.xml.bz2

3. Unpack the dump (bzip2 -d dewiktionary-latest-pages-articles.xml.bz2)

4. Create a new WiktionaryLoader instance, passing the unpacked file:

   final WiktionaryLoader loader = new WiktionaryLoader(new File("dewiktionary-latest-pages-articles.xml"));

5. From now on you can use the loaded wiktionary dump to check words:

   System.out.println("Is noun" + loader.isNoun("Januar"));
