hello hello!
about the use of pywikibot:
is it possible to use to parse the xml dump?
I am interested in extracting links from pages (internal, external, with
distinction from ones belonging to category).
I also would like to handle transitive redirect.
I would like to process the dump, without accessing wiki, either access
wiki with proper limits in butch.
Is there maybe something in the package already taking care of this ?
I 've seen in
https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:Pywikibot/Scripts
there is a "ghost" extracting_links.py" script,
I wonted to ask before re-inventing the wheel, and if pywikibot is suitable
tool for the purpose.
Thank you,
L.
