That’s neat, thank you! 8D I tried it on Notepad++ and looks great.
Well, shoot. I can’t try this at home on my Mac, but I will give it a shot the next time I’m on a Windows computer. Thanks again. Looking forward to using it soon!
Edit:
Segmelsian said…Thank you for the heads up, Segmelsian! I will give this a try when I have some time to learn a bit more about how it works.
Its worth noting that if you have the GO tools
installed on your system you can run it using go run main.go
–apik=$APIKEY
This at least works in Max OSX 10.9, and thus I’m assuming would work similarly for whatever distributions are supported by Go.
That being said this looks great thanks
dlemay said... I opened it using Notepad++. I would also recommend opening it with Excel. Import the data as tab delimited values so it will split Japanese and English in separate cells. Putting it in a spreadsheet also allows you to create an Anki deck with those sentences.Can this be used to mass add items on memrise?
My life would be complete. :0
Ahh, I would love to see a Mac version of this! It seems very helpful.
Edit: Actually, I see from the comments that people are working around this issue, but I’m totally lost on how they’re doing it hahaa.
I second the request for a Mac version. I can only imagine how it would help my grammar.
Ok so steps for compiling and running a Mac version (as people seem to want it)
1. Download Go tools: (I used 10.8 version but also works for my 10.9)
https://code.google.com/p/go/downloads/list?q=OpSys-OSX+Type-Installer
2. Install package (Double click and follow steps)
3. Open terminal
4. type cd $PATH_TO_UNZIPPED_SOURCE, where the path is something like /Users/Segmelsian/Downloads/Sentencegator-0.1a (or wherever you saved it and obviously your name instead of Segmelsian)
5. Type go run main.go --apik=$API, where $API is your API key
6. results.txt should now be in the Sentencegator folder
Optionally if you wish to make separate files for english / Japanese you can type:
cut -f1 -s result.txt > japaneseOnly.txt
cut -f2 -s result.txt > englishOnly.txt
Which could be useful for something I guess, at the very least means you won’t see the answers for everything all the time

Is there anyway I can get the sentences for each level? Then I could make a course with everything by level for each wanikani level and that would be awesome :0
Nice work! I might see about making a fast version with a few more flags at some point (in Scala or Haskell) 
28112 sentences… This will take a while

Use --levels flag.
Sorry, tech inept here - how do you use the level flag?
http://www.memrise.com/course/168291/kanji-sentences/
Still adding the rest of the levels but ya, this. 
really nice!
mello said... Sorry, tech inept here - how do you use the level flag?For example --levels=3 or --levels=1,2,3,5,50
Woo, this was really needed, thanks =) I’ll give it a try when I’m home tonight.
I finished the memrise course, but it only has 5264 items for some reason 
but ya, feel free to use !
This sounds really nice but ofc I can’t get it to work…
This is what I wrote: %D:\1 DET MESTA\WK API\Sentencegator-0.2b%/Sentencegator --apik=%c1c501bfbcd67089ba270d0c1fd4c837% [–levels=i[,j,k]]
And I get a msg that says: Cannot find the file %D:\1. Check if you wrote the right name and try again. (translated it from swedish so might not say exactly this in eng).
When I open Sentancegator I get the same problem as Gabriel: When I open Sentencegator.exe, it seems to load the sentences and all, but then it just closes, and the result.txt is blank.
Plz help =)

C://Users/Yahya/Desktop/Sentencegator-0.2b/Sentencegator --apik=53fe2b69380258b355e506ead564ee69 --levels=1
That's exactly what I type in, and that gives me the level 1 sentences.
If I wanted all up to my level, I would just take that last part out, so
C://Users/Yahya/Desktop/Sentencegator-0.2b/Sentencegator --apik=53fe2b69380258b355e506ead564ee69
ya, use that as reference
EDIT: Okay, yako500 was faster than me.
aleccookies said…You shouldn’t have any % in your file path or API key. You have to replace the whole “%PATH%” by the path to the folder where you unzipped the application, and the whole “%API_KEY%” by your API key.

Also, the “[–levels=i[,j,k]]” is a technic way to say that you may include an optional “–levels” option followed by one or more numbers. You probably don’t need it.
Try:
D:\1 DET MESTA\WK API\Sentencegator-0.2b\Sentencegator --apik=c1c501bfbcd67089ba270d0c1fd4c837
I don’t know if the path is correct though. You may want to check that.
Wow, I think even my mom can use the command line to the extent of browsing directories and starting applications… but then, I forced her to use Ubuntu to save some money
