Hi!
I'm new to this list (and have not yet found a way to search the archives), so maybe this topic has been discussed to death before. If so, I'd appreciate a hint (when, subject, etc. so I can download the proper month from the archives) and ask to accept my apologies..
I'm working on a project where there are a lot of (generated) pages on one side and a mediawiki 1.5.1 on the other side. The administrator of the wiki is a bit overly careful, so I cannot use the import functionality (which works without a problem on my test-wiki at home). Nonetheless, I've about 2500 wiki pages to upload... "Open page - copy from editor - paste into firefox - save - open next page - etc.pp." was hard enough for the test pages until everything worked like a charm, but by now all the converting and generating is just a "make all" and a few minutes of runtime - and uploading would be weeks...
Is there a (linux command line) tool out there which accepts a filename with wiki content, a wiki address and page name, a username and password (or cookie file path) and uploads the file's contents to the wiki? Alternatively, is it possible to achieve this somehow with wget? Programming & shell skills are available.
I found a bunch of media uploaders, but this is just about uploading normal pages, not about uploading media - there are some pictures in the project, but they can be handled manually, as they are few.
Yours, Christian Treczoks
