# mdict-parser
A Rust project for parsing mdict dictionaries.
## Introduction
mdict-parser is a tool for parsing mdict dictionaries, a commonly used file format for dictionaries. The resulting output is in a format that can be easily used for other purposes, such as building a dictionary or integrating with other applications.
## Features
Parses mdict dictionary `.mdx` files into a structured format
Supports multi-value entries
Written in Rust for performance and safety
## Usage
Add the following to your Cargo.toml file:
```toml
[dependencies]
mdict-parser = "0.1.0"
```
Add the following to your Cargo.toml file:
```rust
use mdict_parser::{parser, mdict::Record};
fn main() {
let input = include_bytes!("../dictionary.mdx");
let dict = parser::parse(input);
// iter dictionary entries
for key in dict.keys() {
println!("{:?}" item)
}
// iter all dictionary records
for item in dict.items() {
println!("{:?}" item)
}
}
```
## Unimplemented Features
* `.mdd` file format support
* mdict v3 format support
* Encrypted dictionary file support
