Hello again
Where can I find the token? I'd like to process
some 10 to 1000 articles
based on templates that are used in it.
Right now, no token is necessary to use WikiProxy - the "lock" will
become active when I update my tools next time. Then, you can get an
access token by asking me :)
Note that you will *never* need a token to access WikiProxy locally from
the toolserver. The IPs are whitelisted.
Well, I think this means that Stefan's team has to
recode a lot. Pulling
the titles and texts out of the XML dump is easy but you only get a new
dump every 1 or 2 month. On the other hand XML is more robust while the
database structure will change with every MediaWiki version - for
instance I was not aware of the external text before.
For the analysis of large volumes of texts doing it "live" isn't really
an option anyway, I think. And being able to handle XML dumps is a good
idea anyway :)
None the less, having the full text available on the tool server *would*
be nice. Btw: if that ever happens, I will switch WikiProxy do use the
data on the toolserver, so you can keep using it.
What do you mean? The e.V. can support with money and
fame but it's
pretty unexperienced in setting up mysql servers ;-)
But perhaps they can help coordinating this. All we can do is whine on
this mailing list... which has led to nothing so far.
On a slightly
related note: we still do not get updates for any data on
the Asian cluster (the databases we have are stuck in October).
Sounds like not definite solution before MySQL 5.2.
DaB is trying to get an external replication agent working. I hope this
gets finished soon. Maybe someone familiar with the internals of MySQL
could give him a hand?
