Weekly Updates
May 24th - May 31st
Initial discussion with daf on the project design which finalized
- Using ElementTree module of python as the parser for XML dictionary files.
- Using SQLite as a temporary storage space for the parsed dictionary so that it is easy to access data without parsing the XML again.
- Work Details
- Started with reading about python especially ElementTree class
- Made a small sized dictionary file from gcide and making a basic class which initially only parsed the file and display its content in more readable form.
- Modified the XMl file to remove all the characters starting with "#&" as they were unreadable by parsers and were giving errors of "Unidentified entity"
- Applied for git repository.
June 10th - June 14th
- Work Details
- Extended the class structure to include some more functions
- Read about SQLite
- Added the SQLite interface to the dictionary class which parses the dictionary and stores all the data in a database. This class is available at the git repository.
- Fixed the error of "Unidentified entity" by adding the "DOCTYPE", which defines entities for xml files, to all the XML files.
- Again applied for git repository as it's not been created yet.
- Repository created :). First git commit
- Issues to be tackled
- The "DOCTYPE" has to be included in each mxl file seperately
