For anyone interested in the origin of words, Etymograph is a website and API that shows etymological data in a structured and easy-to-use way.

• Python 3
• pip for Python 3

• Clone this repository
• In the root directory, run pip3 install -r requirements.txt
• To set up the database, run:
  • python3 manage.py db init
  • python3 manage.py db migrate
  • python3 manage.py db upgrade
• This repository contains an import tool designed to be used with an existing etymological data set, the Etymological Wordnet. To use this tool, run python3 manage.py import_tsv <tsv_file>.
• The database is slow to import all of the data, so you may want to take a subset of it. A good one to try is all of Old, Middle, and Modern English - about a million lines in total.
• To create this subset, download the etymwn TSV file, and use grep to create a file with only the languages you want (for the Englishes, (ang|enm|eng): should do the trick). Then, run the import tool on this file.
• For testing, simply use python3 app.py

• The server will run at http://localhost:5000/ by default.
• This project is deployed on http://etymograph.com using nginx and uwsgi. If you'd like to do similar, a guide can be found here - but be prepared to troubleshoot.
