Firefox/ Chrome extension that support local server

Hi,

I remember that 1 year ago I used 01 version of Firefox or Chrome’s addon that support local server of Language Tool. So I can check offline text instead of being online.

Could you please help me to find that version or guide me how to use local sever on Firefox/ Chrome.

Thanks!

This is still possible, just visit the add-ons settings page and set the URL to a local URL (e.g. http://localhost:8081/v2)

Thank you! It still works. My mistake is enter https//localhost:8081/v2

Docking to sidebar.

Could you please modify this extension (Firefox/ Chrome) to dock to sidebar instead of closing every time we click another mouse? (Close on demand only)

Thanks!

It’s not possible yet in Firefox and it won’t be possible in Chrome, so there are no plans to work on this, as I’d like to keep the versions for both browsers in sync.

Thanks!

Hello there.

I’m looking for the said option and can’t find it.

All in all, I just want to have the latest (apparently of 2020) database to search through, for German language because as of now the Chrome extension is heavily lacking in genders of words.

So the solution is Finding errors using n-gram data | dev.languagetool.org, and it’s all fine, until the stage where we must tell the extension that we have a local server.

Thank you for any idea

You can set your own server here:

Sorry it’s in russian, but the layout is the same :stuck_out_tongue:

Maybe the reason is that I haven’t applied for API tier?

Ah, I see - you need to log out first (see the top of the configuration page).
