clj-cmudict is a simple wrapper for the CMU Pronouncing Dictionary.
To install the lastest version from clojars, just add the following vector to the :dependencies section of your project.clj file.
[clj-cmudict "0.1.0"]To install the latest version from the current source, clone the repository and install with leiningen.
git clone https://github.com/Yomguithereal/clj-cmudict.git
cd clj-cmudict
lein install
Then include the same vector within your project.clj and you should be good to go.
N.B. The library is quite heavy for it encapsulates the cmudict as a whole an is not an API client.
To get the arpabet code of a single word
(use 'clj-cmudict.core)
(first (arpabet "shine"))
(:SH :AY1 :N)
