getfamily

Check usage (experimental)

Note: Pywikipediabot now has a python based family file generator that is stable and updated regularly.

GetFamily extension adds a special page, Special:GetFamily, where users with the 'getfamily' right (everyone by default) can generate a family file for their pywikipediabot.

[edit] Requirements

GetFamily extension requires WikiCurl. (at least if $IP/extensions/WikiCurl is not installed).

[edit] Installation

  1. Download the files from SVN and place them in $IP/extensions/GetFamily/
  2. Add
    require_once("$IP/extensions/GetFamily/GetFamily.php");
    into your wiki's LocalSettings.php
  3. Installation can now be verified through your wiki's Special:Version.

[edit] Usage

Visit Special:GetFamily to get a pywikipediabot family file which you can copy to your favorite text editor and then save. You can also visit Special:GetFamily?action=GetLocal to get a XML version of the same family file.
