Please fork this repository to add new dictionaries.
The Yeoman script can help you create the dictionary template files seen in most of dictionary directories.
In the cspell-dicts
repository root.
yarn create-dictionary <name> <path/to/source/words>
Yeoman will ask you a series of questions:
Field | Description |
---|---|
name | this is the dictionary. i.e. en_AU or ruby |
friendly name | this is the friendly name, like Australian |
description | short description of the dictionary. |
source file | this is the source file to use to build the dictionary. It can be a .txt or hunspell .dic file. This file will be copied to the dictionary project. |
local | this is the two letter language code with an optional cultural code. a * mean it will match any language. More than one local can be added by separating them with a comma. i.e. en, en_AU. |
languageId | this is the VS Code programming language id or file type. * will match all file types. Examples: java , cpp , plaintext , markdown , ruby . Types know to cspell |
store as trie | for large source files (> 1MB) or hunspell files, this should be y . n will work for all programming language keyword files. |
run build | prepare the word list so it can be used by cspell efficiently. You can always run the build step yourself in the dictionary directory yarn run build . |
Once all the questions have been answered, the dictionary directory will be created and the files will be copied.
Please update README.md
and LICENSE
files as necessary.
From the dictionary directory
cspell link add ./cspell-ext.json
This will add an entry in the cspell global config to import the cspell-ext.json
file in the dictionary directory.
Use either VS Code or cspell to verify that files spell check correctly.
- Install
cspell
:npm install -g cspell
- Check the global links:
cspell link list
- Check a file:
cspell check <path/to/source/file.ext> [--local=<locale>] [--language-id=<filetype>]
Example:cspell check README.md --local=en,es
-- to check the readme file assuming English and Spanish words.
Checking a file will show you what has been ignored (gray) as well as what is considered an error (red):
Remember to unlink when you are done:
cspell link remove ./cspell-ext.json
From the dictionary directory:
npm install -g
From NPM repository:
npm install -g @cspell/dict-<name>
Then run the link command found in the dictionary README.md
file.
It has the following pattern: cspell link add @cspell/dict-<name>
.
To unlink: cspell link remove @cspell/dict-<name>
