moedict-meego

A MeeGo Harmattan client port for g0v.tw moedict project.

Getting Started

Dependencies

• Perl 5.14+ - required by moedict-epub
• Python 2.7+ - for building index (tested under 2.7.4)
• Qt SDK from Nokia - for N9 toolchain

Building index

rschiang@RSChiang:~/moedict-meego$ make index

During the first run, make source is invoked. The build system will automatically fetch required repositories and generate mapped UTF-8 source file, which you can manually update by typing make update source.

The generated files are located at data folder, among with description files.

• manifest.json declares information related to dictionary index version.
• index.json is a compact JSON dict with Title - Raw Entry mapping.
• lookuptable.json consists of extracted lookup information for use with incremental search.

Getting Involved

Releases

• v13.6.7 - Initial, with progressive search usable
• v13.6.22 - Enable selection, copy link, and tested across different PR version

Milestones

• Basic UI (done)
• Build and include offline index (done)
• Update functionality (done) Client itself doesn't include dictionary files and thus require a download ("update") during OOBE.
• Progressive search (done)
