Scraper Recipes

Get the code

bzr branch ~edlefma/mwscraper

Pick a template

Right now our templates are software.tt, to generate a software dependency page, geneds.tt, and scraper.tt, which creates its own doc page.

Run & Check results

The tool can either print its new wiki pages to STDOUT or upload them to the wiki. Check your results by running mwscraper without --upload:

./mwscraper --host https://wiki.cs.earlham.edu --login --username <user> --password <pass> <template>

Run & upload changes

Now that we know we want to make this change, run again with --upload.

./mwscraper --host https://wiki.cs.earlham.edu --login --username <user> --password <pass> --upload <template>
