How to test script and are offline dictionaries possible? about odh HOT 3 CLOSED

For your first question, you can host your script at online code sharing site, for example. I have some online scripts on gist for testing purpose, it is at https://gist.github.com/ninja33 you can select one script by clicking it's name, then click "Raw" on right-top of the script code. the browser url text field will show your the real script address. copy & paste it in ODH option -> 'User Defined Scripts' section, load or save option again.

For secondary question, ODH doesn't provide offline dictionaries function itself, because, usually, offline dictionaries are in different format. ODH can't cover all of them. You can try to convert the offline dictionary and provide an online (local host) interface by yourself, and then write a specified user script to read this local hosted 'online' dictionary, I also have a sample here https://github.com/ninja33/mdx-server which uses python code to convert mdx/mdd offline dictionary to a http local server.

Thanks for your assistance. I've managed to create an EN -> JP dictionary script which I have now made a pull request for. I'll look into creating an offline dictionary soon but in the meantime, the online dictionary is an excellent alternative.

By the way, which Anki deck format do you use for your flashcards? I was going to create my own, but the deck type you use in your example screenshots looks very good.

Apologies for the dumb question. I found your anki templates here: https://github.com/ninja33/anki-templates

I'll close the issue now. Thank you.
