[edit] Requisites

• Installed and running Semantic Mediawiki Extension, download from here
• Installed and running Mediawiki extension GraphViz, download from here
  • please use the improved version from [1] including the local wiki URLs.

[edit] Install instructions

The process format is part of the Semantic Result Formats. Installation instructions can be found there.

Note that it may be a bit troublesome to install the GraphViz extension due to its current bad maintenance. It would be great if someone cleaned that up.

The process extension is disabled by default, because it requires another extension to work. Please add this line to LocalSettings.php:

$srfgFormats[] = 'process';
