DistributedDictionary

Because AMI uses a large n umber of dictionaries which may be developed independently and globally. AMIDictionaries are now spread over many sites, different degrees of compliance, and different location types (in-jar resources, distributed $DICTIONARY, local files, web sites). It's fun and a mess, just as the 1994 web was!

• amidict org.contentmine.ami.tools.dictionary. Primary tools for creating, editing, translating, displaying, merging.

• define the syntax
• namespaces?

• amidict-based: create, display, search , translate (the last is mainly json<->xml)
• ami search supports distributed dictionaries but needs testing.

Main use is in-jar resources. The distributed syntax works in ami search but is probably out-of-date. The dictionaries are not all Wikidata-ified.
