FAQ

After the download, you have to make one include require_once('vendor/autoload.php');. After that you have to import the classes with use statements.

Example:

If you use only one package a project is not needed. But if you use more then one package, without a project it is not possible to import the classes with use statements.

In general, it is recommended to use always a project to download your libraries. In an application normally there is more than one library needed.

Some PHP packages are not free to download and because of that hosted in private repositories. In this case some credentials are needed to access such packages. Please use the auth.json textarea to insert credentials, if a package is coming from a private repository. You can look here for more information.

Some hosting areas are not accessible by a terminal or SSH. Then it is not possible to use Composer.
To use Composer is sometimes complicated. Especially for beginners.
Composer needs much resources. Sometimes they are not available on a simple webspace.
If you are using private repositories you don't need to share your credentials. You can set up everything on our site and then you provide a simple download link to your team member.
Simplify your Composer build process. Use our own command line tool to download the vendor folder as binary. This makes your build process faster and you don't need to expose your credentials for private repositories.

Please rate this library. Is it a good library?

About

Reads from a CC-CEDICT Chinese dictionary file, and outputs structured data.

Options

Required settings

setFilePath() sets path of file to extract and process

Optional settings

setBlockSize(int) sets block size to read and parse at a time
setStartLine(int) in case you don't want to start from the beginning
setNumberOfBlocks(float) in case you don't want to read all the way to the end. You can use INF.
setOptions(array) define which data you want returned (see below)

Returned data

The parser will return an array with:

an array of Entry objects filled with data as per your configuration (see below)
an array of any skipped lines
the number of parsed lines
the number of skipped lines

Basic Entry object

By default, the parser will fill the Entry object with:

an array of English translations from the dictionary entry
an array of traditional characters from the dictionary entry
an array of simplified characters from the dictionary entry

Customising the Entry object

With setOptions(array) (see above), you can change the data included in the Entry object. If any options are set, the Entry will not include any data that is not specified with setOptions()!

Entry::F_ORIGINAL includes the original unparsed line from CC-CEDICT
Entry::F_TRADITIONAL includes a string with the dictionary entry in traditional characters
Entry::F_SIMPLIFIED same as above but in simplified characters
Entry::F_PINYIN includes a string of pinyin as formatted in CC-CEDICT (numeric but with ideosyncrasies)
Entry::F_PINYIN_NUMERIC includes a string of pinyin converted to numeric Hanyu Pinyin
Entry::F_PINYIN_DIACRITIC includes a string of pinyin converted to Hanyu Pinyin with diacritics
Entry::F_ENGLISH includes a string with all the English translations for the dictionary entry
Entry::F_ENGLISH_EXPANDED includes an array with the above English translations
Entry::F_TRADITIONAL_CHARS includes an array of all traditional characters in the dictionary entry
Entry::F_SIMPLIFIED_CHARS same as above but with simplified characters

Limitations, bugs, roadmap

Opportunities for improvement

Well perhaps it could output various formats (e.g. JSON) instead of simply arrays?
Any further Chinese in the English translation (references, alternative spellings, or full forms of abbreviations) could be structured and nested
getFull() still needs to be described (and made accessible, or removed)
