[Anki][] is a powerful open source flashcard application, which helps you
|
|
quickly and easily memorize facts over the long term utilizing a spaced
|
|
repetition algorithm. Anki's main form is a desktop application (for Windows,
|
|
Linux and macOS) which can sync to a web version (AnkiWeb) and mobile
|
|
versions for Android and iOS.
|
|
|
|
This is a personal Anki server, which you can sync against instead of
|
|
AnkiWeb. It was originally developed by [David Snopek](https://github.com/dsnopek)
|
|
to support the flashcard functionality on Bibliobird, a web application for
|
|
language learning.
|
|
|
|
This version is a fork of [jdoe0/ankisyncd](https://github.com/jdoe0/ankisyncd).
|
|
It supports Python 3 and Anki 2.1.

|
Installing
|
|
----------
|
|
|
|
1. Install the dependencies:
|
|
|
|
$ pip install -r src/requirements.txt
|
|
|
|
2. Copy the default config file ([ankisyncd.conf](src/ankisyncd.conf)) to configure the server using the command below. Environment variables can be used instead, see: [Configuration](#configuration).
|
|
|
|
$ cp src/ankisyncd.conf src/ankisyncd/.
|
|
|
|
3. Create user:
|
|
|
|
$ python -m ankisyncd_cli adduser <username>
|
|
|
|
4. Setup a proxy to trans-write the requests (Optional) .
|
|
Ankisyncd currently support the header "Transfer-Encoding: chunked" used by Anki.
|
|
If you want to enable secure connection or have a better security,a proxy can be set up.
|
|
|
|
For example, if you use Nginx on the same machine as ankisyncd, you first
|
|
have to change the port in `ankisyncd.conf` to something other than `27701`.
|
|
Then configure Nginx to listen on port `27701` and forward the unchunked
|
|
requests to ankisyncd.
|
|
|
|
An example configuration with ankisyncd running on the same machine as Nginx
|
|
and listening on port `27702` may look like ([entire config template click me](docs/src/nginx/nginx.example.conf)):
|
|
|
|
```nginx
|
|
server {
|
|
listen 27701;
|
|
server_name default;
|
|
location / {
|
|
proxy_http_version 1.0;
|
|
proxy_pass http://127.0.0.1:27702/;
|
|
client_max_body_size 222M;
|
|
}
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Adding the line `client_max_body_size 222M;` to Nginx prevents bigger collections from not being able to sync due to size limitations.
|
|
|
|
5. Run ankisyncd:
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
$ python -m ankisyncd
|
|
```
|

Installing (Docker)
|
|
-------------------
|
|
|
|
Follow [these instructions](https://github.com/ankicommunity/anki-devops-services#about-this-docker-image).
|
|
|
|
|
|
Setting up Anki
|
|
---------------
|
|
|
|
### Install addon from ankiweb (support 2.1)
|
|
|
|
1.on add-on window,click `Get Add-ons` and fill in the textbox with the code `358444159`
|
|
|
|
2.there,you get add-on `custom sync server redirector`,choose it.Then click `config` below right
|
|
|
|
3.apply your server ip address
|
|
|
|
if this step is taken,the following instructions regarding addon setting 2.1( including 2.1.28 and above) can be skipped.
|
|
|
|
### Anki 2.1.28 and above
|
|
|
|
Create a new directory in [the add-ons folder][addons21] (name it something
|
|
like ankisyncd), create a file named `__init__.py` containing the code below
|
|
and put it in the `ankisyncd` directory.
|
|
|
|
import os
|
|
|
|
addr = "http://127.0.0.1:27701/" # put your server address here
|
|
os.environ["SYNC_ENDPOINT"] = addr + "sync/"
|
|
os.environ["SYNC_ENDPOINT_MEDIA"] = addr + "msync/"
|
|
|
|
### Anki 2.1
|
|
|
|
Create a new directory in [the add-ons folder][addons21] (name it something
|
|
like ankisyncd), create a file named `__init__.py` containing the code below
|
|
and put it in the `ankisyncd` directory.
|
|
|
|
import anki.sync, anki.hooks, aqt
|
|
|
|
addr = "http://127.0.0.1:27701/" # put your server address here
|
|
anki.sync.SYNC_BASE = "%s" + addr
|
|
def resetHostNum():
|
|
aqt.mw.pm.profile['hostNum'] = None
|
|
anki.hooks.addHook("profileLoaded", resetHostNum)
|
|
|
|
### Anki 2.0
|
|
|
|
Create a file (name it something like ankisyncd.py) containing the code below
|
|
and put it in `~/Anki/addons`.
|
|
|
|
import anki.sync
|
|
|
|
addr = "http://127.0.0.1:27701/" # put your server address here
|
|
anki.sync.SYNC_BASE = addr
|
|
anki.sync.SYNC_MEDIA_BASE = addr + "msync/"
|
|
|
|
[addons21]: https://addon-docs.ankiweb.net/addon-folders.html
|
|
|
|
### AnkiDroid
|
|
|
|
Advanced → Custom sync server
|
|
|
|
Unless you have set up a reverse proxy to handle encrypted connections, use
|
|
`http` as the protocol. The port will be either the default, 27701, or
|
|
whatever you have specified in `ankisyncd.conf` (or, if using a reverse proxy,
|
|
whatever port you configured to accept the front-end connection).
|
|
|
|
Use the same base url for both the `Sync url` and the `Media sync url`, but append `/msync` to
|
|
the `Media sync url`. Do **not** append `/sync` to the `Sync url`.
|
|
|
|
Even though the AnkiDroid interface will request an email address, this is not
|
|
required; it will simply be the username you configured with `ankisyncctl.py
|
|
adduser`.
|
|
|
|
Development
|
|
-----------
|
|
|
|
### Testing
|
|
|
|
0. Prerequites
|
|
|
|
This project uses [GNU Make](https://www.gnu.org/software/make/) to simplify the development commands. It also uses [Poetry](https://python-poetry.org/) to manage the Python dependencies. Ensure they are installed.
|
|
|
|
1. Create a config for your local environment.
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
$ cp config/.env.example config/.env.local
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
See [Configuration](#configuration) for more information.
|
|
|
|
2. Download Python dependencies.
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
$ make init
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
3. Run unit tests.
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
$ make tests
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Configuration
|
|
|
|
### Environment Variables (preferred)
|
|
|
|
Configuration values can be set via environment variables using `ANKISYNCD_` prepended
|
|
to the uppercase form of the configuration value. E.g. the environment variable,
|
|
`ANKISYNCD_AUTH_DB_PATH` will set the configuration value `auth_db_path`
|
|
|
|
Environment variables override the values set in the `ankisyncd.conf`.
|
|
|
|
* The environment variables can be found here: config/.env.example.
|
|
* The file also includes other development variables, but the notable ones are the ones with the prefix ANKISYNCD_
|
|
* Environment variables will override the config files values (which is why I recommend you use them)
|
|
* This is what we use in the Docker images (see: https://github.com/ankicommunity/anki-devops-services/blob/develop/services/anki-sync-server/examples/docker-compose.yml).
|
|
* Copying the config file from config/.env.example to config/.env.local will allow you to configure the server when using the make commands
|
|
* You can also set it when running the server e.g. ANKISYNCD_PORT=5001 make run
|
|
* The above two options are useful for development. But if you're only going for usage, you can also set it globally by adding it to your ~/.bashrc file e.g. export ANKISYNCD_PORT=50001
|
|
|
|
### Config File: ankisyncd.conf
|
|
|
|
A config file can be used to configuring the server. It can be found here: [src/ankisyncd.conf](src/ankisyncd.conf).
|
|
|
|
|
|
Support for other database backends
|
|
-----------------------------------
|
|
|
|
sqlite3 is used by default for user data, authentication and session persistence.
|
|
|
|
`ankisyncd` supports loading classes defined via config that manage most
|
|
persistence requirements (the media DB and files are being worked on). All that is
|
|
required is to extend one of the existing manager classes and then reference those
|
|
classes in the config file. See ankisyncd.conf for example config.
|
