简介

云拼音是一个可以在拼音列表中添加云端候选词的Fcitx插件。目前它支持四种云提供商，Sogou, QQ, Baidu, Google。默认情况下，出发长度是10，您可以手动将其设置得更短。并且它还会使用基于内存的缓存来缓存最近的结果。

Usage

When you are using any pinyin related input method, when your pinyin string length is over the threshold, it will send a request the provider server and fetch the result back. There will be a place holder "..." when the word is loading.

If the word is already appeared in the candidate list, it will be removed.

Trick

Set HTTP proxy

Simply set

   export http_proxy=http://ip:port
   export https_proxy=http://ip:port

Before Fcitx run.

Potential Security Issue

In spite of Google, all providers do not support SSL (by the way, you need to update to 0.2.1 to use SSL with Google), and you might not trust the provider, since the data you typed might have some private info. So think about it before use cloudpinyin.
