# AnkiConnect #
2016-05-30 02:59:21 +00:00
2017-04-01 20:21:04 +00:00
The AnkiConnect plugin enables external applications such as [Yomichan](https://foosoft.net/projects/yomichan/) to communicate with
[Anki](https://apps.ankiweb.net/) over a network interface. This software makes it possible to execute queries against
the user's card deck, automatically create new vocabulary and Kanji flash cards, and more. AnkiConnect is compatible
with the latest stable (2.0.x) and alpha (2.1.x) releases of Anki and works on Linux, Windows, and Mac OS X.

## Installation ##
2016-05-30 02:59:21 +00:00
2017-03-15 04:10:45 +00:00
The installation process is similar to that of other Anki plugins and can be accomplished in three steps:
1. Open the *Install Add-on* dialog by selecting *Tools* > *Add-ons* > *Browse & Install* in Anki.
2017-04-01 20:21:04 +00:00
2. Input *[2055492159](https://ankiweb.net/shared/info/2055492159)* into the text box labeled *Code* and press the *OK* button to proceed.
2017-03-15 04:10:45 +00:00
3. Restart Anki when prompted to do so in order to complete the installation of AnkiConnect.
2017-04-01 20:21:04 +00:00
Anki must be kept running in the background in order for other applications to be able to use AnkiConnect. You can
verify that AnkiConnect is running at any time by accessing [localhost:8765](http://localhost:8765) in your browser. If
2017-08-31 04:26:28 +00:00
the server is running, you should see the message *AnkiConnect v.5* displayed in your browser window.
2016-07-03 02:46:01 +00:00
2017-04-22 06:36:47 +00:00
### Notes for Windows Users ###
2017-01-28 20:20:38 +00:00
2017-04-01 20:21:04 +00:00
Windows users may see a firewall nag dialog box appear on Anki startup. This occurs because AnkiConnect hosts a local
server in order to enable other applications to connect to it. The host application, Anki, must be unblocked for this
plugin to function correctly.
2017-01-28 20:20:38 +00:00
2017-04-22 06:36:47 +00:00
### Notes for Mac OS X Users ###
2017-01-28 20:20:38 +00:00
2017-02-12 00:41:02 +00:00
Starting with [Mac OS X Mavericks](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/OS_X_Mavericks), a feature named *App Nap* has been
introduced to the operating system. This feature causes certain applications which are open (but not visible) to be
2017-02-12 03:26:22 +00:00
placed in a suspended state. As this behavior causes AnkiConnect to stop working while you have another window in the
2017-02-12 00:41:02 +00:00
foreground, App Nap should be disabled for Anki:
1. Start the Terminal application.
2. Execute the following command in the terminal window:
```
defaults write net.ichi2.anki NSAppSleepDisabled -bool true
```
3. Restart Anki.
2017-04-22 06:36:47 +00:00
## Application Interface for Developers ##
2017-02-01 17:23:09 +00:00
2017-02-03 04:14:24 +00:00
AnkiConnect exposes Anki features to external applications via an easy to use
[RESTful](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Representational_state_transfer) API. After it is installed, this plugin will
initialize a minimal HTTP sever running on port 8765 every time Anki executes. Other applications (including browser
extensions) can then communicate with it via HTTP POST requests.
2017-02-01 17:23:09 +00:00
2017-08-31 04:26:28 +00:00
By default, AnkiConnect will only bind the HTTP server to the `127.0.0.1` IP address, so that you will only be able to
access it from the same host on which it is running. If you need to access it over a network, you can set the
environment variable `ANKICONNECT_BIND_ADDRESS` to change the binding address. For example, you can set it to `0.0.0.0`
in order to bind it to all network interfaces on your host.
2017-02-03 04:14:24 +00:00
### Sample Invocation ###
2017-02-01 17:23:09 +00:00
2017-08-31 04:26:28 +00:00
Every request consists of a JSON-encoded object containing an `action`, a `version`, and a set of contextual `params`. A
simple example of a modern JavaScript application communicating with the extension is illustrated below:
2017-02-01 17:23:09 +00:00
2017-09-30 00:03:48 +00:00
```javascript
2017-09-10 05:28:09 +00:00
function ankiConnectInvoke(action, version, params={}) {
2017-02-03 04:14:24 +00:00
return new Promise((resolve, reject) => {
const xhr = new XMLHttpRequest();
2017-09-10 05:28:09 +00:00
xhr.addEventListener('error', () => reject('failed to connect to AnkiConnect'));
xhr.addEventListener('load', () => {
try {
const response = JSON.parse(xhr.responseText);
if (response.error) {
throw response.error;
} else {
if (response.hasOwnProperty('result')) {
resolve(response.result);
} else {
reject('failed to get results from AnkiConnect');
}
}
} catch (e) {
reject(e);
2017-02-03 04:14:24 +00:00
}
});
xhr.open('POST', 'http://127.0.0.1:8765');
2017-08-31 04:26:28 +00:00
xhr.send(JSON.stringify({action, version, params}));
2017-02-03 04:14:24 +00:00
});
}
2017-02-01 17:23:09 +00:00
2017-08-31 04:26:28 +00:00
try {
2017-09-10 05:28:09 +00:00
const result = await ankiConnectInvoke('deckNames', 5);
console.log(`got list of decks: ${result}`);
2017-08-31 04:26:28 +00:00
} catch (e) {
2017-09-10 05:28:09 +00:00
console.log(`error getting decks: ${e}`);
2017-08-31 04:26:28 +00:00
}
2017-02-01 17:23:09 +00:00
```
2017-08-31 04:26:28 +00:00
Or using [`curl`](https://curl.haxx.se) from the command line:
2017-05-06 12:39:38 +00:00
2017-09-30 00:03:48 +00:00
```bash
2017-10-08 21:34:17 +00:00
curl localhost:8765 -X POST -d "{\"action\": \"deckNames\", \"version\": 5}"
2017-05-06 12:39:38 +00:00
```
2017-08-31 04:26:28 +00:00
AnkiConnect will respond with an object containing two fields: `result` and `error`. The `result` field contains the
return value of the executed API, and the `error` field is a description of any exception thrown during API execution
(the value `null` is used if execution completed successfully).
*Sample successful response*:
2017-09-30 00:03:48 +00:00
```json
2017-08-31 04:26:28 +00:00
{"result": ["Default", "Filtered Deck 1"], "error": null}
```
*Samples of failed responses*:
2017-09-30 00:03:48 +00:00
```json
2017-08-31 04:26:28 +00:00
{"result": null, "error": "unsupported action"}
```
2017-09-30 00:03:48 +00:00
```json
2017-08-31 04:26:28 +00:00
{"result": null, "error": "guiBrowse() got an unexpected keyword argument 'foobar'"}
```
2017-02-01 17:23:09 +00:00
2017-08-31 04:26:28 +00:00
For compatibility with clients designed to work with older versions of AnkiConnect, failing to provide a `version` field
in the request will make the version default to 4. Furthermore, when the provided version is level 4 or below, the API
response will only contain the value of the `result`; no `error` field is available for error handling.
2017-02-01 17:23:09 +00:00
2017-08-31 04:26:28 +00:00
### Supported Actions ###
2017-08-22 08:43:37 +00:00
2017-08-31 04:26:28 +00:00
Below is a comprehensive list of currently supported actions. Note that deprecated APIs will continue to function
despite not being listed on this page as long as your request is labeled with a version number corresponding to when the
API was available for use.
2017-08-22 08:43:37 +00:00
2017-08-31 04:43:15 +00:00
This page currently documents **version 5** of the API. Make sure to include this version number in your requests to
guarantee that your application continues to function properly in the future.
2017-08-31 04:26:28 +00:00
#### Miscellaneous ####
2017-08-22 08:43:37 +00:00
2017-04-22 06:36:47 +00:00
* **version**
2017-02-01 17:23:09 +00:00
2017-08-31 04:43:15 +00:00
Gets the version of the API exposed by this plugin. Currently versions `1` through `5` are defined.
2017-02-03 04:14:24 +00:00
This should be the first call you make to make sure that your application and AnkiConnect are able to communicate
2017-08-14 20:02:56 +00:00
properly with each other. New versions of AnkiConnect are backwards compatible; as long as you are using actions
2017-02-03 04:14:24 +00:00
which are available in the reported AnkiConnect version or earlier, everything should work fine.
2017-04-22 06:36:47 +00:00
*Sample request*:
2017-09-30 00:03:48 +00:00

AnkiConnect can download audio files and embed them in newly created notes. The corresponding `audio` note member is
optional and can be omitted. If you choose to include it, the `url` and `filename` fields must be also defined. The
`skipHash` field can be optionally provided to skip the inclusion of downloaded files with an MD5 hash that matches
the provided value. This is useful for avoiding the saving of error pages and stub files. The `fields` member is a
2017-09-10 05:28:09 +00:00
list of fields that should play audio when the card is displayed in Anki.

* **guiStartCardTimer**
2017-10-02 01:17:39 +00:00
Starts or resets the `timerStarted` value for the current card. This is useful for deferring the start time to when
