rhyme-es

Find rhyming words in Spanish.

Resources

Already prepared in the repo, but in case I forget:

Frequency list: RAE Corpus, ./CREA_total.TXT. Note that the list is iso-8859-1 encoded, It has to be converted to UTF8 before use.

Dictionary: hunspell dictionaries from https://github.com/wooorm/dictionaries, extracted to word list with unmunch, ./words.txt.

Usage

# Initialize word frequency map
cargo run --release --bin init
# Start the console app
cargo run --release --bin query
# Start the HTTP API
cargo run --release --bin serve

License

Dunno. The dictionary I used is GPL, but they are just data. Is it OK to use a more permissive license for the code?
