Hey all,

I'm happy to announce the immediate availability of Replicator 0.2.

Replicator is a CLI application for replicating a Wikibase http://wikiba.se/ entity base such as Wikidata https://www.wikidata.org. It can import entities from the Wikidata API and from Wikibase dumps in various formats. It features abort/resume, graceful error handling, progress reporting, dynamic fetching of dependencies, API batching and standalone installation (no own MediaWiki or Wikibase required). Furthermore it uses the same deserialization code as Wikibase itself, so is always 100% compatible.

This version brings Vagrant support and comes with the latest versions of the Wikibase deserialization code, needed for recent data. https://github.com/JeroenDeDauw/Replicator

Right now it's not that easy to add new "replication targets", though if there is interest in this, I can probably spend some time catering to that demand.

(I've written this tool, and this email, as volunteer, and not as Wikimedia Deutschland employee.)

Cheers
