First commit on the local Gitea server, made after moving the tree off the
Windows machine. Build outputs, node_modules and the AI models stay out
(see .gitignore); everything the installer build needs is tracked.

Accordance API Status

Current Situation

Based on the forum discussion (topic 37607), the Accordance API/OSC integration appears to be a "user-driven vision" rather than a fully implemented feature yet.

There is no OSC option in Accordance Preferences because the feature hasn't been released yet.

What This Means

  • ✅ Your Bible App integration is ready - The code is prepared to receive Accordance data
  • ⏳ Accordance API is not yet available - The feature is still in development/planning
  • 📝 You're seeing test data - The placeholder text is intentional until Accordance releases the API

Options Going Forward

Option 1: Wait for Accordance API Release

Keep an eye on:

Option 2: Contact Accordance Support

Reach out to Accordance to:

  • Express interest in the API feature
  • Ask about timeline for release
  • Request beta access if available
  • Provide feedback on what you'd like to see

Contact: support@accordancebible.com

Option 3: Use Current Test Data

The integration currently provides enhanced test data for common words:

  • love - Full Strong's data (G25)
  • faith - Full Strong's data (G4102)
  • god - Full Strong's data (G2316)
  • christ - Full Strong's data (G5547)
  • lord - Full Strong's data (G2962)

For other words, you'll see a message explaining the situation.

Option 4: Manual Integration

You could manually:

  1. Use Accordance's Instant Details feature
  2. Copy/paste definitions into your notes
  3. Use Accordance's search features to look up words

What Happens When Accordance Releases the API

Once Accordance implements OSC/API support:

  1. Enable it in Accordance Preferences (when available)
  2. Update the port in osc-config.json if needed
  3. Restart your Bible App server
  4. It should work automatically! - The integration is already coded and ready

Current Integration Status

✅ Server code: Ready to send/receive OSC messages
✅ Client code: Ready to display Accordance data
✅ Popup cards: Ready to show Accordance information
⏳ Accordance API: Not yet available

Next Steps

  1. Continue using the app - Test data will show for common words
  2. Monitor Accordance forums - Watch for API announcements
  3. Contact Accordance - Express interest in the feature
  4. Check Accordance updates - New versions might include API support

Summary

The integration is ready and waiting for Accordance to release their API. Once they do, it should work automatically. Until then, you'll see helpful test data and messages explaining the situation.
