Another RFC: 2.0 packaging
by John Mark Vandenberg 29 Nov '14

29 Nov '14

Hi, There are a few aspects of packaging which will benefit from more brains and a collective decision we can all live with, both in the short term for '2.0' and what we want long term (e.g. '2.1', etc). I would appreciate assistance with... https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Requests_for_comment/pywikibot_2.0_packaging -- John Vandenberg

Pywikobot and phabricator
by Jan Dudík 18 Nov '14

In one week bugzilla will move to phabricator. I am still not friend with phabricator, and I am not able to find how to report bugs about pywikipedia. Is somewhere something about it, some project etc? JAnD

Pywikibot git hosting RFC
by Merlijn van Deen 15 Nov '14

15 Nov '14

Hello pywikibot community, cc wider Wikimedia community, Given the discussion on pywikipedia-l on the bugzilla migration, I thought it might be a good idea to have a more formal discussion beforehand on what we, as pywikibot community, want to do once the rest of the community moves from Gerrit to Phabricator. As such, I've prepared an RFC draft [1], and I would welcome your input there. Best, Merlijn [1] https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Requests_for_comment/pywikibot_git_hosting

As a workaround, chdir to the pwb.py path before running, or explicitly define the user-config path with -dir:/path/where/pwb.py/is On 9 Nov 2014 15:10, <bugzilla-daemon(a)wikimedia.org> wrote: > https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=72680 > > Steinsplitter <steinsplitter(a)wikipedia.de> changed: > > What |Removed |Added > > ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- > Priority|Unprioritized |High > CC| | > steinsplitter(a)wikipedia.de > Severity|normal |major > > --- Comment #8 from Steinsplitter <steinsplitter(a)wikipedia.de> --- > It breaks all bots with the newest version on toolslabs > > -- > You are receiving this mail because: > You are the assignee for the bug. > > _______________________________________________ > Pywikipedia-bugs mailing list > Pywikipedia-bugs(a)lists.wikimedia.org > https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/pywikipedia-bugs >

Google Code-In 2014: Become a mentor and add tasks!
by Andre Klapper 04 Nov '14

04 Nov '14

Hi Pywikibot crew, Google Code-In (GCI) will soon take place again - a contest for 13-17 year old students to contribute to free software projects. Wikimedia wants to take part again. Last year's GCI results were surprisingly good - see https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Google_Code-in_2013 We need your help: 1) Go to https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Google_Code-in_2014#Mentors.27_corner and read the information there. If something is unclear, ask! 2) Add yourself to the table of mentors on https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Google_Code-in_2014#Contacting_Wikimedia_men… - the more mentors are listed the better our chances are that Google accepts us. 3) Please take ten minutes and go through open recent tickets in https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org in your area of interest. If you see self-contained, non-controversial issues with a clear approach which you can recommend to new developers and would mentor: Add the task to https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Google_Code-in_2014#Proposed_tasks Until Sunday November 12th, we need at least five tasks from each of these categories (plus some less technical beginner tasks as well): * Code: Tasks related to writing or refactoring code * Documentation/Training: Tasks related to creating/editing documents and helping others learn more - no translation tasks * Outreach/research: Tasks related to community management, outreach/marketing, or studying problems and recommending solutions * Quality Assurance: Tasks related to testing and ensuring code is of high quality * User Interface: Tasks related to user experience research or user interface design and interaction Google wants every organization to have 100+ tasks available on December 1st. Last year, we had 273 tasks in the end. Note that you could also create rather generic tasks, for example fixing two interface messages from the list of dependencies of https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=38638 Potentially helpful Bugzilla links: * Reports that were proposed for GCI last year and are still open: https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/buglist.cgi?quicksearch=ALL%20whiteboard%3Ag… * Open Pywikibot tickets created in the last six months (if I got your products and components right): https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/buglist.cgi?bug_status=UNCONFIRMED&bug_statu… * 19 already existing Pywikibot "easy" tickets (are they still valid?): https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/buglist.cgi?bug_status=UNCONFIRMED&bug_statu… Could you imagine mentoring some of these tasks? Thank you for your help in reaching out to new contributors and making GCI a success again! Please ask if you have questions. Cheers, andre PS: And in a future Phabricator world, Bugzilla tickets with the 'easy' keyword will become Phabricator tasks with the 'easy' project. -- Andre Klapper | Wikimedia Bugwrangler http://blogs.gnome.org/aklapper/

running bot on Labs
by rubin.happy 02 Nov '14

02 Nov '14

Hello! I set up my bot on Labs and use shared repo of pywikibot. That's why I am interested in 2 options: 1) how can I define which file should be used as user-config.py in the script's running parameters? For example, I want to run "redirect.py br -delete -always" with config of sysop bot and "redirect.py do -always" with usual bot account, that's why I want to create 2 different configs and define them in parameters. I haven't such functions in global parameters but I am quite sure that this was possible before. 2) I want to run my custom script but use shared repo of framework: for example, to run delinker.py from my home location but use wikipedia.py, etc. from shared repo not to clone frameworks on Labs. Is it possible, too? Thanks, rubin16
