Description

A script for generating all possible combinations that a Chinese character can consist of.

The IDS (Ideographic Description Sequence) is used to represent the composition.

This script can be useful in creating Kinship diagrams.

For example:

Usage

The script reads a json file of the following form (the order of the characters doesn't matter):

[
    {"id": "一", "children" : null},
    {"id": "丨", "children" : null},
    {"id": "丿", "children" : null},
    {"id": "乀", "children" : null},
    {"id": "十", "children" : ["一","丨"]},
    {"id": "八", "children" : ["丿","乀"]},
    {"id": "木", "children" : ["十","八"]}
]

And creates a json file in the src/files/output.json folder. Example of output for 木:

 {
    "id": "木",
    "children": [
      "十",
      "八"
    ],
    "result": [
      "十八",
      "十丿乀",
      "一丨八",
      "一丨丿乀"
    ]
  }
