Request for permission to create a Conda package for Pywikibot
by Mahfuza Humayra Mohona 20 Sep '23

20 Sep '23

Dear Pywikibot developers, I am a Pywikibot user interested in creating a Conda package for Pywikibot. With your permission and guidance, I would like to contribute to the Pywikibot Conda package effort. A Conda package for Pywikibot would provide several advantages over the existing pip package. Conda offers better management of dependencies, allowing for isolated environments and easy installation. It caters to users who prefer Conda as their package manager and facilitates integration with Conda-based workflows and tools. I kindly request your permission to proceed with creating the Conda package and would greatly appreciate your guidance throughout the process. Once complete, I will share the package link for your review and feedback. Thank you for considering my request. I look forward to your response.

Problems submitting a patch
by Roy Smith 27 Jun '23

27 Jun '23

I'm trying to follow the directions at https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Gerrit/Tutorial#How_to_submit_a_patch <https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Gerrit/Tutorial#How_to_submit_a_patch> I made a branch (roysmith-T340447) and committed my patch there. Then I did "git pull --rebase origin master", but when I do "git review -R", it lists a whole bunch of changes that it's going to commit. > The outstanding commits are: > > d2d427f6e (HEAD -> roysmith-T340447) Make test independent of current directory. > 8d0a3fd85 (origin/master, origin/HEAD) Update git submodules > be68060bc (master) Update git submodules > ... > 3c58add93 fix end of file > 2b0db6e0a make files with shebangs executable > 5eb15cc79 [FIX] do not test sys.argv[0] > 137bcdff5 Update git submodules > > Do you really want to submit the above commits? I don't have any experience using git rebase, so I'm not sure if this is what I should be expecting.

Testing against live wikis
by Roy Smith 26 Jun '23

26 Jun '23

I noticed that category_tests.py was failing for me. The breakage was due to this edit on enwiki <https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Category:2021_establishments_in_…>, and fixed in ce301a2 <https://github.com/wikimedia/pywikibot/commit/ce301a2f1de4a2dca4e8e93cc1465…> which updates the test to look for the current contents of the page on enwiki. I'm concerned that we're writing tests which depend on knowing the current contents of a live production wiki.
