Feature Request: Additional card Fields

[popo63301]

Would it be possible to add this plugin to the app?: https://ankiweb.net/shared/info/441235634

Especially "{{info::Reviews}} - the amount of reviews that you had on a card".

Thanks in advance ! :D

I would also find this very useful, and have given it a thumbs up. I feel sure that sometimes cards appear weeks or months before they are due; I have no objection to that, but I'd like to know when it happens, so the ability to add relevant special fields to cards would be welcome.

This is the sort of thing that could likely fit into the "hooks" architecture:

https://github.com/ankidroid/Anki-Android/tree/master/AnkiDroid/src/main/java/com/ichi2/libanki/hooks

You'd want to create a CardInfo (or similar) Hook subclass registering for the "mungeQA" hook (I believe), that scanned for {{info:: and replaced it with info it looked up. The hook would be passed all it needs in order to lookup info the "args" Object array, this function is where it is called so you can see the args content:
https://github.com/mikehardy/Anki-Android/blob/1187dddac916f75d952bdb683931df489fcef985/AnkiDroid/src/main/java/com/ichi2/libanki/Collection.java#L1055

An example is here:
https://github.com/ankidroid/Anki-Android/blob/master/AnkiDroid/src/main/java/com/ichi2/libanki/hooks/HebrewFixFilter.java

This is a plugin on desktop, so would not normally make it in to the codebase for AnkiDroid, but we do have a hook infrastructure already and there's no other way to do plugins during review. So if someone proposed a clean PR for this, it could work.

I looked into it. But is there any information stored for particular cards info (eg. reviews). The information stored that when it will appear next for reviewing. But for count number of reviews for particular cards, where to look/add code?

Is this?
https://github.com/ankidroid/Anki-Android/wiki/Database-Structure#database-schema

reps            integer not null,
      -- number of reviews

[david-allison]

Yeah, reps is already available on the card object. no need for database work.
