Category: General Group: None Status: Open Resolution: None Priority: 5 Private: No Submitted By: Nobody/Anonymous (nobody) Assigned to: Nobody/Anonymous (nobody) Summary: xmlreader requires internet connection Initial Comment: Since this is solely for reading local xml files must be, somehow, separated from "import wikipedia as pywikibot". Every attempt to use it, requires login to any wiki. It can not be used to generate anything based solely on xml backups. Debugging such non-"logining" "bots" is very difficult. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Date: 2012-09-25 02:46 Message: Try to use the rewrite branch. IMHO it does not require loging in to use xmlreader. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- You can respond by visiting: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=603138&aid=357142…
