Description
Chinese Support Redux is a rewrite and port of the original Chinese Support add-on to Anki 2.1. It offers a number of features that streamline the process of creating flashcards for learning Chinese. The current focus of development effort is on improving the stability of the add-on and the accuracy of its output. Once the core functionality is sufficiently robust and reliable, additional features will be considered. While many of the changes will be structural in nature, I would encourage users to update the add-on whenever the version number increases and notify me of any problems. Your feedback is important.
Important Note: If you find that a field is not filling at all, please check config.json for the complete list of valid field names.
Features
- Automatic field filling
- Translation (from built-in dictionary; supports English, German and French)
- Romanisation (supports Pīnyīn (拼音) and Cantonese Jyutping (粵拼))
- Mandarin Audio (fetched from Google or Baidu)
- Traditional (繁體字) and simplified (簡體字) characters
- Bopomofo (ㄅㄆㄇㄈ), also known as Zhuyin (注音)
- Rubies (small-print transcription placed above characters)
- Frequency (from “very basic” to “obscure”). Based on anki-chinese-word-frequency
- Tone colours (applied to characters, romanisation and Bopomofo)
- Built-in note types (Basic and Advanced)
Hanzi, Meaning, Reading, Sound). See config.json for a list of valid field names.
If you don't already have such a note type, the easiest approach is to use one of the built-in models. Two types are installed automatically: Basic and Advanced. The only important difference is that the Advanced model shows more information.
To use the field-filling features:
- Add a new note to Anki (press
a) - Select
Chinese (Basic)orChinese (Advanced)as the note type - Enable Chinese Support Redux for this note type (click
汉字) - Enter a word (e.g., 電話) into the
Hanzifield (sentences will also work) - Press
Tab - The remaining fields should then be populated automatically
Support
If you encounter any issues, the best way to have these addressed is to raise them on GitHub. Feature requests are welcome, with the caveat that all good things take time.
I understand the documentation is sparse. Anyone who wishes to add content to the wiki is more than welcome to.
Testing
For those who wish to run the tests locally, this is fairly straightforward.
Clone the repository:
git clone https://github.com/luoliyan/chinese-support-redux
cd chinese-support-redux
Ideally, set up a virtual environment to isolate the project:
curl https://pyenv.run | bash
pyenv virtualenv 3.6.8 csr
pyenv local csr
Install dependencies and run the tests:
pip install -r requirements.txt
make testDownload
As add-ons are programs downloaded from the internet, they are potentially malicious. You should only download add-ons you trust.
Supported Anki versions:
- 2.1.0 (Updated 2021-03-29)
To download this add-on, please copy and paste the following code into Anki 2.1:
1128979221
If you were linked to this page from the internet, please open Anki on your computer, go to the Tools->Add-ons menu item, then click on Get Add-ons and paste in the code.

Still sound issues. Dev seems to have abandoned the project.
on
Unfortunately Text to speech doesnt work and that was main reason I tried this addon. Tried every options
on
Great add-on, but no sound playing for me and I can't figure out how to fix it (on the laptop I get nothing, on the iPhone I get "file missing ...")
on
Amazing so easy to make cards now!

IF YOU'RE HAVING AUDIO TROUBLE, HERE'S A POTENTIAL FIX:

Great

Still having audio playback issues on Mac OS Monterey. Tried the workaround of replacing 'cn' with 'com' in the tts.py file. Still cannot get any audio to play from cards. I have posted to https://github.com/luoliyan/chinese-support-redux/issues/202 about the ongoing issue. Would really love to get the audio working. Other than that works as described - great plug in, just really hoping this audio bug gets sorted out soon.

Great tool, irreplaceable!
As of early October 2022, audio has a new problem where cards generate as 0kb corrupt files. This is easily fixable by follow the advice in below github support chain. Basically need to change a single line in %apdata%...tts.py from "cn" to "com".

Excellent! Thank you so much! This is such a time-saver.
Only note is that I couldn't get the audio to work. But I modified the template to use AwesomeTTS for audio instead, and it works like a charm!

SUPER useful! thank you

Very useful add-on that saves time making Chinese cards. (Mac OS Monterey 12.6)
on
Good! Very useful. Most bugs are fixed. Just having some trouble with the mass-autofill, makes ANKI crash.
on
The Ruby (Bopomofo) is such a wonderful thing to have. Thank you so much for this.
on
A lifesaver. I use this with every deck I download/make.
on
Its very helpful
on
This plugin is totally awesome! Thanks so much to its authors for this great helper.
Now it's question time ))
Can more lengthy words or even phrases be tone-colored?
When I input a 3 or more syllable word or phrase, only initial 2 are put into the Color field (so I guess the addon takes the first dictionary word it could recognize and stops after that).
(at the same time, Bopomofo field filling gives the whole sentence bopomofo'ed)
+ THE UPDATE
Silhouette field aren't filling as of now (maybe because of MDBG website changes), perhaps this will be of help?
More than 5 thousands of hanzi as gifs (large and small sizes), properly named (Unicode).
Here: https://github.com/nmarley/chinese-char-animations
It would be great if Chinese Support Redux could also add the stroke order diagrams that could be reviewed both on PC and mobiles.
Not sure though whether Anki will allow to set more than one picture in a row (for multi syllable Chinese words)

Works great again!
on
Anki 2.1.0 doesnt seem to be available for download anymore. Tried this on old versions such as 2.1.15/22 but colored tones do not work.
on
great add on, but how do you add flipped cards? is there a way to do it automatically?
on
works well for me so far. Especially the automatic audio is very helpful, even if computer generated.

Updated review (2021/06/05):
The "meaning" field never fills, no matter what I do. Using v0.14.2 on macOS 11.4 on the latest version of Anki, but for the whole year it has never worked during different versions of the add-on, Anki, and macOS updates. Am I doing anything wrong? Tried everything..
Also still no Chinese dictionary (C-C)
Earlier review:
There's no Mandarin Chinese dictionary? Why even bother having a German and French, when there's no Chinese dictionary for Chinese to Chinese reviewing? Doesn't make any sense to me.
Also, very limited documentation on the add-on. That's why I generally dislike it.

Works fantastically
on
Loved the addon when I got it, but has been plagued by crashing and the field "meaning" has stopped working for a year. I've tried reinstalling, installing on new laptop, following online guides for fixing it. Nothing. The function just isn't there anymore. It was my favourite addon but by now I've stopped using it.
on
Works really well.
on
it keeps on crashing whenever a new card is added:(( pls help, it's been months already
on
After a short time I could only add one word at a time and always have to close anki in between. The sound also rarely worked the more words I had in the stack. It would be nice if these flaws could be fixed, as the add on is a great thing in itself.
on
This add-on helped me a lot for learning chinese I highly recommand to use it for improving your chinese skills.
Furthermore I am very grateful to the community for this piece of great work.
Note that if you encouter an error message refering to GTTS, you need to make adjustments
Refer to comments below for intstructions in order to make GTTS work.

It used to work but I had to reformat my computer and reinstalled. Once I did so and reinstalled the add-on as well as following the steps in https://github.com/luoliyan/chinese-support-redux/issues/161#issuecomment-727697730 (which I had done previously), it no longer works. I'm on Version 2.1.40 (cf446733)
Not sure if there's anything else I need to do. Any help is appreciated!

Will not work as is. Gotta change the gTTS thingy as mentioned previously at:
https://github.com/luoliyan/chinese-support-redux/issues/161#issuecomment-727697730
And then it works without issue. An absolute must for adding in miscellaneous vocab for learning Chinese!

Very helpful add-on! Please see the GitHub page link https://github.com/luoliyan/chinese-support-redux/issues/161#issuecomment-727697730 to fix the gTTS error!

Every now and then when there is an anki update the tool crashes. But: I think it's a great tool anyways and I want to thank the developer so much for providing it. I thought it was so annoying to manually add tones. This add on takes care of it for you. I just installed it after using a new computer and till now I haven't experienced any problems

It was fantastic before the update, now it keeps crashing. Fixed once, it worked for a while, then again it doesn't let add new cards. Please fix this bug
on
Great!
on
why I can't hear audio. and I can't see in Tools- chinese suppport in order to fix. It stopes working after adding 3 words
on
has been constantly bugging lately! Was awesome before, but in the state it is now it's unusable.
on
I used to love this but atm I can only add one card to anki, then have to restart anki as the add-on crashes.
Also restarted the computer, since stuff like that sometimes magically helps, but the problem continues...

That's a fantastic add-on, thanks a lot! I hope you'll implement the gtts fix for the upcoming update so that new users can make the addon work directly. Keep it up!

Crash almost all the time u add new cards

I finally got it working. The links below were helpful.
Help to find the folder where the problem occurs: https://github.com/luoliyan/chinese-support-redux/issues/161#issuecomment-723018268

One more question: is there a way to update pinyin to make it colorful? I imported a deck with black and white Pinyin and I am looking for a way to change all of those to color...When I go through bulk fill transcriptions, it works in the browse window. But after reviewing one card it goes back to all black!

It's a great plugin. Like many others I ran into the issue with google translation sound not loading.

This works really well for me. I am using the simple card type both to enter new cards and I also used the bulk import feature. Thank you so much for making this add-on!
on
Thank you so much!
on
Excellent add-on with active development in 2020
on
Just fantastic, for so many reasons.
I am really new to Anki but I was able very easily to tweak the add-on to work with my already existing decks,
bulk-add audio to all my cards (started lazy, stayed lazy... :) and customize tone colors for instance.
Now I have a remark / feature request.
I noticed that when a word is not already in chinese.db the translation field will stay blank.
Sentences especially will not be translated (at least this is the case for French)
I don't know how hard it would be to implement in Python, but would it make sense,
only in case the dictionary returns nothing, to have the option of fetching a translation from the DeepL API or other?
Thanks for the huge work !

很好的工具，几乎完美解决了我儿子的汉字学习问题，有个文件请教一下，怎么修改生成的拼音的音调？中文里面有音调，不同的语境里面音调不同，请指教！

Thanks. This saves soooo much time. Works really well with my version.
As I use Pleco and got used to their color scheme (and have 5000 cards with those colors in Anki), I wanted to change the color-coding for the tones.
you can do that by starting adding cards, then click on cards and edit the template (style).

Awesome add on! Everything works well but on the front of the card, it shows the English and on the back, it shows the Chinese. Is it possible to have an option to flip this? Or is it my job to edit and adjust everything?

Works well, customizeable. not as good as the last version, but that appears to be an Anki problem more generally.

Easy to use, description is good and works like a glance with a recent anki version. Thanks a lot!

Works good on Mac, in China mainland.
I had to change the default translator to Baidu, because Google is blocked here.

Works beautifully. I had tested this a few years ago with my first decks and now it was even made better this time by recognizing tone sandhi (which it did not do before). This helps improve it a great deal. Keep up the good work everyone!

Help! I don't how to use this. I can create cards and the autofill function works very well. But when I actually use the flashcards, the front reads the chinese character, but the back reads the english definition. How do i get it to show the pinyin as well?

i had a problem when anki starts, but if you have that go to this thread

After Upgrading to Anki 2.1.22 the add-on keeps crashing Anki when I try to open it and I receive the following error code attached at the end.
The add-on also could not be uninstalled in Anki and I had to do it manually (browsing RoamingData etc.).
Is there a way for me to fix this error? Or do the devs have to fix it?
This add-on is pure gold, when it works, so I really want to fix it and change my review to a thumbs up!

After it worked for a year and was a great addition to my Chinese studies in Anki it stopped working after an upgrade to Anki 2.1.22.
It worked for Anki 2.1.15 perfectly. Please update, I'd be so grateful.
Little update: this Hotfix worked for me: https://github.com/luoliyan/chinese-support-redux/issues/118

The Chinese Support is not working, after downloading the add-on, every time when I start the app I get the error message that the add-on could not be loaded. I tried it on my mac and windows pc, both gave me the same error message. Could you please have a look at the problem? I really like the Anki app and I think it is great what you build up!

Just gives some error on every Mac I own on start

Thanks!!! amazing job. I still was using Pinyin Toolkit in Anki 2.0 and thanks to you I can transfer to Anki 2.1
on
I recently installed this add-on after previously having the earlier Chinese Support Redux version, and I honestly wish I had not installed this one.
While this would definitely be an upgrade if I had not ever used the previous version, I decided to change add-ons because I liked the idea of having the pinyin and hanzi color-coded by their tones. However, after downloading it, the definitions no longer automatically load when I am entering a new word, and the tones listed for the pinyin are often incorrect.
I wish I could revert back to the earlier version, but I hope that these small bugs are eventually fixed. Overall, it's definitely still helpful when adding in new characters.

It breaks my heart that I have to upgrade my Anki. This add-on was working so well on the old version of Anki. But now it's just a huge mess.
The biggest problem for me is that the auto-fill fields are not responsive at all most of the time.
Before if I deleted the Chinese character in the Hanzi field, all auto-fill fields would by default turn empty as well, this allowed for quick editing and adjustments. Now I have to do it all manually.
Now, every time I add a card I have to check after adding, if all the auto-fill fields have really been filled in or not.
Furthermore now the Pinyin in the 'Reading'-field just gets pasted in without any spaces and I have to add them manually. This might be a matter of personal preference.
I would prefer a more exact copy of the old version in all functions.
It even seems to conflict with Frozen fields and Add-note ID now.
I hope we will get some updates soon, because I depend a heavily on this tool for my studies. Despite my bad review I still would like to thank our hardworking programmers for trying their best. Thank you!

Comment from author
Thanks for the detailed review.
There's a mix of reasons why this version doesn't behave the same as the one for Anki 2.0. The main issue is that the original code base was unmaintainable spaghetti code, with massive amounts of redundant, copy-pasted logic, and no unit tests to ensure refactoring would be safe. It was almost impossible to fix a single bug without breaking everything else. In many cases, I've had to guess what the intended logic was and write tests around that guess, and this has led to broken functionality for some people.
The rest comes down to personal preference and bugs. I'm happy to debate the personal preference stuff on GitHub, and thanks for the bug reports.

this is an useful app for foreigners to learn Chinese. could you please add a "cloze" function for Chinese kids to learn Chinese characters too? showing the Pinyin and ask the kid to write down the corresponding character, and check if the answer is correct. great thanks if this function can be added!

Is it possible to select multiple cards I've already made, and then enter some command that makes pinyin come up for all of them? I've already made cards and I want to apply to pinyin effect to them all (and not go through each one 1 by 1). Thanks!
on
It's great to see the Chinese Support updated and working well. My only problem is the fact that the Meanings auto-add do not work. Is it not a feature yet?

The sound works again with the 0.11.5 update. Thank you for fixing that, this plugin is invaluable for my studying.

It's really good, just have one question. Is there a way to remove the "Ruby" thingys in the meaning of the words. I always get spoiled on words that have Rubies when I'm about to write the word.
Comment from author
If I understand the question correctly, you can create a field called "Classifier" and that will move the classifier out of the definition. At the moment, that's the only way to do it.

Thank you so much, this is exactly the thing I always wanted to have!

Desperately looking for Chinese Support and then, here you are

Looks great, but I have a problem, the Bopomofo field is not there, it doest straight to the Silhouette field after the Ruby field, and there's not bopomofo

Great plug-in.
Is there a way I can reformat an entire library using your play-in.
The library was originally created with Pinyin Toolkit, which is no longer available. I would like to keep my deck consistent.

I'm not sure what might have caused that, and just from reading the traceback, it doesn't appear to be a problem within the add-on itself. If you have any issues with a clean install of both Anki and the add-on, let me know.

Thanks a lot for bringing this back. My Chinese studies rely heavily on this addon.

Awesome add-on. Couldn't manage without it!

Really nice addon which I already loved in Anki 2.0.
Only problem is that in Anki 2.1 the "Mean Word" field is not filled automatically even though the card type is the same I used in Anki 2.0.
In 2.0 it still works.

Thanks for letting me know. I think I've fixed this in the development code, which I'll upload to AnkiWeb when it's a bit more stable. If there's anything else not working correctly, you can open an issue on GitHub.

Thanks a lot for adding Google Taiwan speech engine, it works wonderfully!

Excellent add-on for adding Chinese notes to existing decks. The key feature for me is that I can type in the character and it will auto-fill pinyin, sound, definition, etc. making the whole process go much smoother.
