Re: [Pywikipedia-l] [ pywikipediabot-Bugs-3605062 ] pywikipediabot should use standard output
by Bináris 17 Feb '13

Let me explain this a bit more. We were working on a solution that our toolserver sends me an affordable quantity of e-mails that can be read. As cron sends a mail if the timed command has some output, it is supposed to bother me only in case of some problem if I redirect standard output to /dev/null. But this is not the case: binaris@tron:~/ pywikipedia$ python figyelmet.py >/dev/null NOTE: You have new messages on wikipedia:hu Sleeping for 8.1 seconds, 2013-02-17 12:23:47 Updating page [[KategĂłria:Figyelmet igĂŠnylĹ lapok 2013 februĂĄrjĂĄbĂłl]] via API Sleeping for 9.1 seconds, 2013-02-17 12:23:56 Updating page [[KategĂłria:Csonkok 2013 februĂĄrjĂĄbĂłl]] via API Sleeping for 9.1 seconds, 2013-02-17 12:24:06 2013/2/17 SourceForge.net <noreply(a)sourceforge.net> > Bugs item #3605062, was opened at 2013-02-17 06:02 > Message generated for change (Tracker Item Submitted) made by tgr_ > You can respond by visiting: > > https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=603138&aid=3605062&group_… > > Please note that this message will contain a full copy of the comment > thread, > including the initial issue submission, for this request, > not just the latest update. > Category: other > Group: None > Status: Open > Resolution: None > Priority: 5 > Private: No > Submitted By: Tgr (tgr_) > Assigned to: Nobody/Anonymous (nobody) > Summary: pywikipediabot should use standard output > > Initial Comment: > All pywikipedia messages go to standard error, making the proper running > of such bots from cron very difficult.

[Pywikipedia-l] HELP! Bot stopped on toolserver
by Bináris 17 Feb '13

17 Feb '13

Hi folks, I just noticed that all my botscripts stopped on Hungarian toolserver on 27 January. Pywikibot is updated daily by cron. From server messages I see it has some problem with wikipedia.py, but what? No code is changed in my own scripts. frissdump.py is here: http://hu.wikipedia.org/wiki/Szerkeszt%C5%91:BinBot/frissdump.py Traceback (most recent call last): File "pywikipedia/frissdump.py", line 6, in <module> import wikipedia as pywikibot File "/home/binaris/pywikipedia/ wikipedia.py", line 8244, in <module> getSite(noLogin=True) File "/home/binaris/pywikipedia/pywikibot/__init__.py", line 115, in wrapper return method(*__args, **__kw) File "/home/binaris/pywikipedia/wikipedia.py", line 8004, in getSite _sites[key] = Site(code=code, fam=fam, user=user) File "/home/binaris/pywikipedia/pywikibot/__init__.py", line 115, in wrapper return method(*__args, **__kw) File "/home/binaris/pywikipedia/wikipedia.py", line 5245, in __init__ self.__family = Family(fam, fatal = False) File "/home/binaris/pywikipedia/wikipedia.py", line 5047, in Family myfamily = __import__('%s_family' % fam) File "/home/binaris/pywikipedia/families/wikipedia_family.py", line 8, in <module> class Family(family.WikimediaFamily): AttributeError: 'module' object has no attribute 'WikimediaFamily' -- Bináris

[Pywikipedia-l] Save the date: Amsterdam Hackathon 2013 (May 24-26)
by Maarten Dammers 10 Feb '13

10 Feb '13

Hi everyone, Wikimedia Nederland invites all developers to the Amsterdam Hackathon 2013. The hackathon is an opportunity for all Wikimedia community developers and sysadmins to come together, squash bugs and write great new features & tools. Unlike the previous years (2012, 2011, etc.) this Hackathon won't be in Berlin, but in Amsterdam. The event is open to a wide range of developers. We welcome both seasoned and new developers as well as people working on MediaWiki, tools, pywikiedia, gadgets, extensions, templates … . It takes place from 24-26 May. If you’d like to attend, please save the date! There will not be an entrance fee for the event itself, but a registration is mandatory. There will be a limited number of scholarships available, details to be provided ASAP. We're currently finalizing the arrangements of the venue. When we're done with that we'll open registration. Keep an eye on https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Amsterdam_Hackathon_2013 for updates! Check this page for updates! Maarten Ps. Please spread the word

[Pywikipedia-l] Please update from SVN: UserAgent header change
by Yuri Astrakhan 05 Feb '13

05 Feb '13

Apparently all of pywiki scripts used the same user agent header - Pywikipediabot/1.0, which made it difficult for Wikipedia et al to identify which script used or abused which API features, as well as impossible to contact the author of said script to fix it. I have recently merged a patch from Ori (WMF dev) to both the main and the rewrite branches. PLEASE UPDATE your pywikipedia code from SVN to automatically start using the new user agent, which will now include the name of the startup script and possibly SVN revision (we might want to switch to a hash-of-main-file based number instead at a later time). On a separate note, if you are interested in the future of MediaWiki APIv2, take a look at the RFC<http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Requests_for_comment/API_Future>, and submit your own thoughts on what you might need for your scripts from the next version of the API, or email me directly. --yurik
