Help:Bots/sv

En bot är ett datorprogram som automatiskt hämtar eller uppdaterar wikisidor vid utförande. Bottar används oftast för enformiga underhållsuppgifter, vars volym och karaktär är för stora för att hanteras manuellt av användare.

Developing and executing bots is normally outside the role of normal users, requires programming experience and must be done in coordination with the wiki's admins.

By default, bot edits are hidden in Special:RecentChanges.

Framework and interface for bot development
Bots do not access the wiki through the normal graphical user interface. MediaWiki has an API (Application Programming Interface) available for this purpose. An API is a protocol for standardized communication between two computer programs. Check for more information.

To access a wiki through the API a bot must have a user account, which has been granted 'bot' permissions.

pywikibot

wiki-java
