Happens in both the cli and python. For example, if the word is bro it will return Bro unknown. I cant really have it filter out unknown because unknown might be the word and i cant have it filter out everything after the space if its a multiple word query. Besides this, super great module, thank you

Currently there's no license for the py-urbandict project. I was assuming that means that this code is public domain in this case, but it turns out that I'm wrong. As this is a really trivial piece of code, I just want to make it easy for people to use it whatever they want.

For this purpose I'm considering to license it under the 'Unlicense' http://unlicense.org/.

I'm adding all the committers here. Please response 'OK' if you agree or share your objections if you have any.

import urbandict urbandict.define('anal') [{'word': 'anal sex', 'def': 'What to avoid in prison.', 'example': 'After dropping my soap, I just let it be so as not to incite an anal rampage.'}, {'word': 'Anal unknown', 'def': 'When a crotch rocket enters the caverns of life.', 'example': 'Sarah to Doug "Will you please take the damn trash out?"Doug "Na playin Fortnite"Sarah "I'll give you Anal!"Doug "ON IT!" (Rockets off Couch)'}, {'word': 'Anal sex', 'def': 'its like having a dick in your ass', 'example': "i've never tried anal...whats it like? it's like having a dick in your ass"}, {'word': 'Anal unknown', 'def': 'Something that may happen when you are trying to lose your virginity but you are too tight and it slips in the wrong hole', 'example': "We couldn't get it in and it slipped causing me to scream wrong hole, and that's the first time I did anal"}, {'word': 'anal sex', 'def': 'Butt sex', 'example': 'Miranda is well known for her wild anal nights.'}, {'word': 'An al unknown', 'def': 'The act of stealing someone else’s mc donalds by accident, going bright red, and blaming it on ur friends who then have to go and get ur meal for you incase you get in trouble', 'example': 'Ah shit that guy is pulling an An Al'}, {'word': 'anal sex', 'def': "bend over and i'll show you.", 'example': '^ what he said ^'}]

It shouldn't return the word as 'anal unknown' or 'anal sex'. BTW, I think unknown/sex returned is actually a tag associated with the word. Like, 'anal' word has 'sex' tag associated with in red besides it in a few definitions. Probably we can return a separate dictionary mapping for it?

http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=xterm returns html with the word wrapped by an a class="word"

<a class="word" href="/define.php?term=xterm&amp;defid=227831">xterm</a>

Currently, urbandict.define("ice") leads to IndexError.

There is urbandictionary.py that supports new markup. Feel free to integrate it into urbandict.py.

1. I did this: with pyhton 2.7

pip install py-urbandict installs version 0.1 (not working)

2. I cloned the master, https://github.com/novel/py-urbandict and installed it manually by copying the .py files over the installed version 0.1

3. Saw that your master setup.py says still 0.1, but already including the 2.7 fixes

4. saw that in setup.py is also dependency missing: urllib (and for python 3.X the subpackages?) So maybe you get that dependency fixed and merge that into the master?

cheers, tverrbjelke

Following your example I wrote:

        import urbandict
        defs = urbandict.define(search)
        print(defs)
        # gives: [{'word': 'xterm', 'def': 'Godly', 'example': 'I wish', 'category': ''}]

and not the expected

[{'word': 'xterm', 'example': 'I wish i was an xterm', 'def': 'Godly creature, omnipotent, guru in every way imaginable.'}]

Apparently, urbandictionary has a real API (again):

http://api.urbandictionary.com/v0/define?term=bebebe https://api.urbandictionary.com/v0/random

(noticed it here: https://www.npmjs.com/package/urban-dictionary)

Would be good to add implementation that uses this API. Should probably keep HTML parsing code in case API becomes unavailable again.
