mauriciopoppe Anki Backup Deck
This skill automates the process of backing up an Anki deck using the AnkiConnect API. It ensures a deterministic and reliable backup as a single binary .apkg file.
Usage
When triggered, this skill uses a Python script to communicate with a running Anki instance via AnkiConnect.
- Identify the deck: Ask for the name of the deck to backup if not provided.
- Run the backup script: Execute the
anki_backup.pyscript with the deck name and a target output path. - Default Output Path: If the user doesn't specify an output path, use the project root with the format
<deck_name>_<date>.apkg.
Script Execution
Run the scripts/anki_backup.py script.
python3 scripts/anki_backup.py "<deck_name>" "<output_path>"
Requirements
- Anki must be running.
- AnkiConnect add-on must be installed and configured.
- Requests library must be available in the Python environment.
