New wikiteam bot for wikiapiary.com #457

Open yzqzss opened 1 year ago

yzqzss commented 1 year ago

Who is controlling the wikiteam bot on wikiapiary.com? Is it possible to deploy this new bot?

https://github.com/saveweb/wikiapiary-wikiteam-bot

(This repo can go into wikiteam/wikiteam.)

WikiTeam bot has been inactive since 2016, I got it working again and a little more robust :-D

I deployed it (Savewebbot) and It works.

Now it always pushes the latest dump's information to wikiapiary and can update existing IA parameters in wikitext to the latest dump. (adapted the --append-date parameter of uploader.py)

I also use sqlite to store the "last successfully checked date" and IA-identifier for each wiki, so the bot can adjust the update interval and skip them, speeding up the secondary traversal.

Thanks for running the bot! There's no need to use the old account.

If you want we can also move the repository under the WikiTeam org. I'll then ask emijrp to add you to the WikiTeam group.
