Yomichan Forvo Server for Anki

image

Simple server to take advantage of Yomichan's custom audio sources feature. Requires Anki Connect. It web scrapes Forvo's search and word page to get a list of words.

Prerequisites:

  • Anki
  • Yomichan
  • Anki Connect

Install:

  1. Copy the code and install like you would for any other Anki addon
  2. Restart Anki
  3. Allow network connections (required since this is a local server)
  4. In yomichan settings, go to Audio > Configure Audio Playback Sources > Custom Audio Source
  5. Select Type as JSON and set URL to http://localhost:8770/?term={term}&reading={reading}
  6. In your Audio Sources list below, make sure one of them is set to Custom

Now when you scan a word in Yomichan, you should be able to right click the audio icon and the Forvo custom audio sources should appear.
