The code is at https://github.com/kanasimi/CeJS/blob/master/application/net/wiki/page.js#L584
Usually it should be [[User talk:Dragons Bot/Stop]]
The page title is 'User talk:' + token.lgname + '/Stop'
@ https://github.com/kanasimi/CeJS/blob/master/application/net/wiki/edit.js#L161
Maybe the token.lgname is "Dragons Bot@Dragons Bot"
?
You may check it with console.log(wiki_session)
and try to find .token
Yes, USER='Dragons Bot@Dragons_Bot'
for sure. It's the value I use, as provided by Special:PasswordBots. It means User:Dragons Bot
(human with mouse) generated a password for User:Dragons_Bot
(bot account). I also have Yug@Dragons_Bot
and associated password. The /stop
should be attached to the bot account User:Dragons_Bot
, not to the connection credential Yug@Dragons_Bot
. Then var bot = str.split('@')[1];
I guess.
I got ReferenceError: wiki_session is not defined
. Where do you put console.log(wiki_session)
?
// Connect
const targetWiki = new Wikiapi;
await targetWiki.login(USER, PASS, API);
// do nothing but log
await targetWiki.edit_page('User:Yug', function(page_data) {
console.log(wiki_session)
return page_data;
}, {bot: 1, minor: 1, summary: 'test edit'});
})();
This should be documented somewhere; I was confused why the library is screaming about /Stop
page not existing, only to find out after digging for ~30 minutes that it seems to be a hardcoded/arbitrary way to stop the bot.
It's a Wikimedia best practice : a conventional button, which provides via the right url a very quick access to the admin page to block that bot.
There is a push to produce a clear documentation (#30). Still needs about a week for the core 90%. Then few months to add sugars. 👍🏼
I did read over https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:Bots and found no mentions about the Stop page, hence the confusion, but glad to hear there's plans to improve docs 👍
You are able to make it run right ? Your bot is on github ?
Yes; It did not block anything, just produced mildly annoying "Stop page not found" on/after every edit.
Creating the page and writing something in it silenced the output.
In console I see :
We should expect :
no ?
