[Phpwiki-talk] phpwikidump: a perl script

[Jeff D. <da...@da...>]

Here's a perl script I just wrote.  It's dumps an entire phpwiki to a tar file.
(The structure of the tar file mirrors that of the pgsrc directory in the
phpwiki distribution.)

It's still a little rough: currently it only works for MySQL based wikis.
I am however using it to make daily backups of the state of my wiki.

Note that this require perl5. You also need to have the Archive::Tar module
and Bundle::DBD::mysql bundle installed.

Comments appreciated.

I suppose it would be really slick to convert this to a PHP that generated
the tar files on the fly.  I did it in perl because Archive::Tar already
exists.
