Allow to use online dictionaries
Closed this issue · 1 comments
But how can we implement a language description which is able to load files directly from the network? With lang.json this is easy, okay, one can argue "download everything you need" is sufficient ;-)
I have mixed feelings here. I did think about making another setting for "online dictionaries" so that one would go to the advanced settings and add something like:
{
"ignore": ["JupyterLab", "Notebook", "Notatnik"],
"language": "pl_PL-online",
"onlineDictionaries": [
{
"id": "pl_PL-online",
"aff": "http://some-url/pl_PL.aff",
"dic": "http://some-url/pl_PL.dic",
"name": "polski (Polska)"
}
]
}
I'm not convinced that this is necessary now, given that the dictionaries loaded locally from the disk are more reliable, but I see that for some very specific use cases this might be useful. I will open a new issue to track this one.

This is an excellent idea! My motivation was to have something in the server installation which I can prepare for many users. User settings are good for individual configurations, but this should be sufficient. You're right local dictionaries are more reliable.
