Category: None Group: None Priority: 5 Private: No Submitted By: Purodha B Blissenbach (purodha) Assigned to: Nobody/Anonymous (nobody) Summary: Allow autosummary in pagefromfile.py (simple) Initial Comment: Since Mediawiki offers to generate an automated edit summary for new pages, it may be desirable to let this freature be used in pageromfole.py - specifically with batch uploads, this would result often in more useful individual edit summaries, such as "redirects to [[xyzzy]]", etc. The chance to make this possible is very simple. Here is a patch: 1. In the parameter description section, add two lines resulting in this: -summary:xxx Use xxx as the summary for the upload if xxx is the empty string, and a new page is created, mediawikis autosummary feature generates a summary 2. Few lines before the end of pagefromfile.py, add two lines resulting in this code: elif arg.startswith("-summary:"): commenttext=arg[9:] if commenttext == '': wikipedia.setAction('') else: wikipedia.output(u"Disregarding unknown argument %s." % arg) 3. This is already it. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Francesco Cosoleto (cosoleto) Date: 2007-10-01 14:16 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=181280 Originator: NO Feature added in r4397. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Purodha B Blissenbach (purodha) Date: 2007-06-21 07:11 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=46450 Originator: YES File Added: pagefromfile_summary_autosummary.py ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Purodha B Blissenbach (purodha) Date: 2007-06-21 07:08 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=46450 Originator: YES After the latest reworking of pagefromfile.py in cvs, which made the -summary command line parameter useless, my above recommendation was lost, and after reinserting it, did not work any more. Attached is a patch that makes both work as of today.

("Leit öm op" = "Redirects to", localized) When put() gets an *empty* or None comment parameter, it uses the action defined by setAction() which by default is something like "PyWikipediBot framework". This is why I made it empty, when commenttext==''. put(... comment = '' ...) makes Mediawiki use its autosummary feature on new pages. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Daniel Herding (wikipedian) Date: 2007-06-14 06:35 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=880694 Originator: NO Have you tested this? I'm not sure this works, as pages are saved using put(... comment = commenttext ...). When put gets a comment parameter, it will ignore the action defined by the setAction() call. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- You can respond by visiting: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=603140&aid=173629…
