I installed the latest version of Audacity (3.7.1) and tried to install the Nyquist plugin as “Tools > Nyquist Plugin Installer…” and then selecting the ankidacity.ny file from the plugin. Audacity says “Unsupported file type”. I’m not finding any hits in Google for this error. Do you have any suggestions? Which version of Audacity are you using? I tried a version 2 but it doesn’t have the Nyquist plugin installer, at least not that I could find.

Thanks for any help!

FWIW, I created a new file “ankidacity-win.ny” in the same folder as ankidacity.ny, opened both in VS Code, copied the contents across and saved it. Then I was able to load the -win.ny plugin in Audacity. Seems like there’s some Windows file type issue going on. I tried to convert from Unix file ending to Windows but so far no luck. Hope this helps.

thanks for the info. I’ll add a link to this to the addon description.

Is there anyway that source can be made available for this plugin ?
(Please do share if already available)
Thanks

I see two ways:

install the addon but do not restart. in the same session go to the addon folder inspect the code and move the addon folder or delete it. I haven’t looked at aqt/addon.py from the anki source but I would guess that the old behavior “running addon code requires a restart” hasn’t changed. In the past Damien considered this also as a feature and not just a bug, see e.g. here.

addons can also be downloaded from outside of anki. the adress for my addon should be ‘https://ankiweb.net/shared/download/1326170847?v=2.1&p=66’ . use your browsers or maybe a tool like wget.
