Question about local wikipedia with ZIM and Kiwix-server #7

Closed hakim-im closed 3 years ago

hakim-im commented 3 years ago

Hi El Tocino

Thank you very much for you guide on all things local mycroft. :)

Re. Wikipedia, I followed the easy method with Invader ZIM. All went well and I can access my local wikipedia via web browser.

I am having issues getting mycroft to access this wiki though. I edited the file wikipedia.py and changed the API_URL with the local IP (http://192.168.1.43:7998/) of the kiwix-serve: When querying mycroft wikipedia skill, I get the error WikipediaSkill | Error: Expecting value: line 1 column 1 (char 0)

Would you mind please sharing your config of the API_URL in wikipedia.py?

Many thanks.

Ahh--I haven't added anything for that yet. Sorry! I'll try and update later this week.

It turns out kiwix doesn't implement an API function yet.

Checking other methods to see if this is usable a different way, but I'm going to close this as it's a not likely to work with the wikipedia module ever.
