Hello.
You're looking for the Page.latestRevision() function here:
nicdumz@host:~/pywikipedia$ python Python 2.5.2 (r252:60911, Oct 5 2008, 19:24:49) [GCC 4.3.2] on linux2 Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
import wikipedia
Checked for running processes. 1 processes currently running, including the current process.
mainpage = wikipedia.Page(wikipedia.getSite('en', 'wikipedia'), 'Main Page') mainpage.latestRevision()
Getting 1 pages from wikipedia:en... 260905624
But you'll have to code yourself in python to insert it somewhere... It's sort of a "custom" use.
2009/2/19 Chris Watkins chriswaterguy@appropedia.org:
Is there a way to get the "oldid" value (i.e. which version) for the latest version of a page, and insert it using the replace.py command?
It seems like getVersionHistory might have something to do with it, but I couldn't find instructions.
Thanks
