Hello,
I would like to eventually make a server that one enters in 1-5 words in
text and the site spits out a Braille translation along with an explanation
of the Braille rules for any contractions that are found (like de(ar) ar
trumps ea).
I am trying to figure out if I should use liblouis in python with a django
server, or try and get it working with Node and either compile liblouis to
Javascript or use Edges JS to access liblouis functions directly from
NodeJS.
I am most comfortable using NodeJS servers, but I could get into Django if
it is a lot easier. I don't know C or C# hardly at all, otherwise I would
just write something in ASP...
I will be developing on windows and transferring the code to a Cent OS
server.
I downloaded the zip file and looked through all the folders and did not
see any python anywhere. I also extracted the tar file and found python and
now I'm not sure what to do with all these .am and .in files. Will they
magically turn into .py files after I run setup.py? the setup didn't seem
to have any special treatment of .in or .am files though.
In searching for Javascript stuff I found:
https://github.com/liblouis/liblouis/wiki/Compiling-liblouis-to-javascript-using-emscripten
and
https://github.com/reiner-dolp/liblouis-js
The guide is a little over my head, especially because it is written for
Linux and the port looks a little iffy, mostly because it is not fully
ported and is not on NPM.
Does anyone know how to install the python package on windows, or how to
use liblouis in Javascript?
Thank you,
