Miscellaneous Anki Add-ons

This repository contains most of the smaller Anki add-ons I have written over the years. For more information on each add-on please take a look at the comments in the respective source file, or at its AnkiWeb description.

Generic Installation Instructions

Installation from AnkiWeb

Most add-ons in this repository have been published on AnkiWeb and may be comfortably installed via Anki's own add-on management system. To correlate each source file with its listing on AnkiWeb please refer to the add-on titles in their AnkiWeb descriptions.

Manual Installation

  1. Open Anki's add-on folder by navigating to Tools -> Add-ons -> Open add-ons folder from Anki's main screen

  2. Download a copy of the full repository zip archive

  3. Locate the add-ons you want to install in the src/ directory

  4. Copy the add-on files to Anki's add-on directory

    • in case of Anki 2.0: For each of the add-ons, copy all files its folder aside from __init__.py into the top-most level of Anki's add-on directory (e.g. for reviewer_auto_rate_hotkey you would only copy reviewer_auto_rate_hotkey.py)
    • in case of Anki 2.1: For each of the add-ons, copy the entire add-on folder into the top-most level of Anki's add-on directory (e.g. for reviewer_auto_rate_hotkey you would copy the entire reviewer_auto_rate_hotkey folder). Note: Not all add-ons in this repository have been transitioned to Anki 2.1, yet. To learn more about the compatibility status of each add-on please see here.
  5. Restart Anki to see the changes

Naming Scheme

The source file naming describes which part of Anki each add-on interacts with. As such, the names do not always correspond with their listings on AnkiWeb.

Add-on file names also have an impact on their loading order. Files with a leading special character are designed to be imported after most other add-ons have been loaded, as they might interact with them.

Credits

Some of the add-ons found in this repository were either adopted from earlier works by other authors or simply constitute re-uploads of add-ons that disappeared from AnkiWeb, with no original code repository to be found. I have tried to document the development history of each of these add-ons in their source code header, but more detailed information may also be found here.

License

Most of the add-ons in this repository are licensed under the same license as Anki, the GNU AGPL, version 3 or later. Please check the source code comments for more details on the licensing of each add-on.
