duolang_kit v1.0.4

Duolang kit

Purpose

This package is meant to facilitate creation of webpages containing bilingual texts intended for educational purposes. The words in the text can link to entries in a dictionary. There should also be a possibility to view the text in a transcription (for languages that use non-latin scripts).

Usage

Duolang kit uses a custom ML that is a small subset of WikiText. To mark words for translation use square brackets:

const myText: string = [she|she] [to go|went]

Then create a DlContext that specifies how to create the links:

  const context: DlContext = {
    urlBuilder: new TemplateUrlBuilder('https://pl.wiktionary.com/wiki/{}'),
    transcriber: null,
  }

Parse the text and render as html:

parse(myText).render(context);

Todo

• Implement transcriptions
• Allow simple links for words already in dictionary form
• Formatting options
