Do you know pywikipedia?

Hi,

do you know the pywikipedia project on SF? Maybe you should have a look at it to avoid reinventing the wheel...

Ciao, Michael.

Yes, I know it, but I've developed the bot before I had heard about it. However I do not intend a further development :-).

how do i use this project?!?

Here a very simple php script:

<?php
require 'bgbot.php';

$wiki = 'XX';
$user = 'USERNAME';
$pass = 'xxxxxxxx';
$sleep_time = 60; // sleep 60 secs between edits
$bot = new Bgbot($wiki, $user, $pass);

$pages = array('page_1', 'page_2', 'page_3');

foreach ($pages as $page) {
    if ( $bot->edit($page, $wiki, false) ) {
        $content = $bot->page_content;
        // do something to $content
        $summary = 'my summary for this edit';
        $bot->submit($content, $summary, $wiki);
        sleep($sleep_time);
    }
}
?>
