[INDOLOGY] Sanskrit Kosha API

[Dhaval Patel]

Dear scholars,

Currently we have around 30 koshas available in digital format.
I have developed a small API to search the content matching a given word
from all the dictionaries.

*For non technical people -*

1. Use https://www.sanskritworld.in/sanskrittool/kosha-search/kosha.html
2. Use 'all' as default value in 'Dictionary' field. If you want data for a
specific dictionary, use its dictionary code from the list given below.
3. input transliteration and output transliteration can be any of the
following values -

   - bengali
   - devanagari
   - gujarati
   - gurmukhi
   - kannada
   - malayalam
   - oriya
   - tamil
   - telugu
   - hk (Harvard-Kyoto)
   - iast (International Alphabet of Sanskrit Transliteration)
   - itrans (ITRANS)
   - itrans_dravidian (ITRANS with support for Dravidian short "e" and "o")
   - kolkata (National Library at Kolkata)
   - slp1 (Sanskrit Library Phonetic Basic)
   - velthuis (Velthuis)
   - wx (WX)


*API description -*
https://kosha.sanskritworld.in/#/default is the API for programmers.

1. https://kosha.sanskritworld.in/v0.0.1/dictcode
gives the codes and full form of dictionary name.

2. https://kosha.sanskritworld.in/v0.0.1/query/{query}
gives the details of all data matching `query` in all dictionaries.
e.g. https://kosha.sanskritworld.in/v0.0.1/query/rAma

3. https://kosha.sanskritworld.in/v0.0.1/query/{query}/koshas/{kosha}
gives the detail of a given `query` in given `kosha`.
If you are unsure of the `kosha`, see API 1 for short codes.
e.g. https://kosha.sanskritworld.in/v0.0.1/query/rAma/koshas/ABCH
This will give all details of rAma in dictionary अभिधानचिन्तामणि of
हेमचन्द्र।
