[Pywikipedia-l] Error in SVN download of pywikipedia
by William H. Magill 01 Aug '13

01 Aug '13

In updating the documentation for the Mac install (as well as installing it myself for the first time) I encountered the following SVN error: > svn: warning: Error handling externals definition for 'pywikipedia/externals/pycolorname': > svn: warning: OPTIONS of 'https://svn.toolserver.org/svnroot/drtrigon/externals/pycolorname': > Could not read status line: connection was closed by server (https://svn.toolserver.org) I assume this to be a transient SVN error -- changes being made, in progress, etc. ???

[Pywikipedia-l] [Rewrite] Handling custom families
by Adrián Chaves Fernández 28 Jul '13

28 Jul '13

How are custom families handled in the rewrite branch? That is, as a user, do I have to write my custom family files to the installation directory, or can I use a user-writable directory instead? (e.g. .pywikibot)?

[Pywikipedia-l] Strange error on the TS
by Toto Azéro 28 Jul '13

28 Jul '13

Hello everybody ! I'm getting the following error with the latest revision of pywikipedia (trunk) on the toolserver : Traceback (most recent call last): File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module> File "wikipedia.py", line 150, in <module> externals.check_setup('BeautifulSoup.py') File "externals/__init__.py", line 377, in check_setup if globals()[dist[0] + '_install'](modules_needed[m][0]): KeyError: u'sunos_install' As this error happens when trying to import the wikipedia library, I cannot use any script… Do you have an idea ? Regards, — Toto Azéro

How could I pass additional optional parameters? Just an idea, I haven't investigated in it but you could try it out: you may use a class instance inside fixes.py and pass the option through the constructor. Your MyFunc should be an instance method. e.g. class myClass(object): def __init__(self, option): self.option = option def myFunc(self, match): result = u'' # change the result depending of match and self.option # ... return result thisClass = myClass(option='submit anything as option') and play with replacements using thisClass.myFunc Best xqt

[Pywikipedia-l] Gitt migration and nightlies
by Bináris 27 Jul '13

27 Jul '13

Hi, for those "unit radius users" as we say in Hungary the end users, who don't want to learn git and don't want to contribute to the framework, will the nightlies be available in the same way after 26th? -- Bináris

[Pywikipedia-l] Something strange happened with git repo
by Tomasz Magulski 23 Jul '13

23 Jul '13

I've synced yesterday my repo with this availiable in gerrit/github, so yesterday it was up to date. Today, when I was merging my master branch it seemed that I had circa 830 commits to mutual parent with gerrit/github and the same situation occur for gerrit/gihub (it has circa 830 comitis to our mutual parent), so I start digging and found out that uncommon commits (this 830) look (as far as commit comment) the same. So my suspicion is that someone (legoktm) has been independently importing new commits from svn to git repo (so they look exactly the same but don't have the same commit hash) and has pushed them to directly gerrit without merging with master? Could we do something to avoid that kind of situations? cheers -- Tomasz Magulski

[Pywikipedia-l] Brand new ItemPage
by Tomasz Magulski 22 Jul '13

22 Jul '13

I've just created a possibility to create brand new ItemPage from scratch. My work is avaliable here: https://github.com/magul/pywikibot-core/tree/newItemPage it works like: i = ItemPage.createNew(repo) Before it (afaik) there was not possibility to simply create new ItemPage (you were able to create new object of ItemPage class, but should provide a title, and create new ItemPage from existing page on another site). What do You think about it? -- Tomasz Magulski
