A simple script to format pleco flashcard exports and convert it into an anki package
You have to use python to run this script. Install the requirements with pip install -r requirements.txt
Export the flashcards you want from pleco (menu > import/export > export cards). Set the format to text file and character set to simplified, and check 'card definitions' and 'dictionary definitions'. Transfer the exported file to your computer
Then, in this directory run python3 ./pleco_to_anki <path_to_pleco_file> <deck_name>
. A .apkg file should be generated in the out/ directory and you can install it by opening anki and going to File > Import > select the file
If you add new flashcards and want to update the anki deck, simply run the same command. This time, the deck will only contain new cards, and you can import them in the same way.
This software was made hastily for personal use, so there are quite a few bugs, primarily definition parsing issues
