CITi's Wikibot

Python script to easily edit pages on CITi's Wiki directly from shell or using a Markdown (.md) file. Currently, our Wiki is made using MediaWiki.

Installation

$ pip install citi-wikibot

Usage

Note: Keep in mind that every command will overwrite the current page content with the one you provide.

Quickstart

1. Just initialize your Wikibot
2. Use one of the commands, it's that simple ✨

Editing a page directly from the shell

$ python
>>> from wikibot import Wikibot
>>> bot = Wikibot('username', 'password', 'page_title')
>>> bot.edit_page('== My title ==\nHello world!')

Editing a page from a Markdown file

Important: It's recommended that you run the script in the folder your file is located

$ ls
notes.md
$ python
>>> from wikibot import Wikibot
>>> bot = Wikibot('username', 'password', 'page_title')
>>> bot.edit_page_from_file('notes.md')

Gets the Homepage from GitHub wiki of your repository

Automatically gets your GitHub wiki homepage (example), parses it and edits the page on CITi Wiki (result).

You must declare your personal access token from GitHub in a variable called GITHUB_TOKEN in order to use this command.

$ GITHUB_TOKEN="mypersonalaccesstoken123"
$ python
>>> from wikibot import Wikibot
>>> bot = Wikibot('username', 'password', 'page_title')
>>> bot.edit_page_from_github('my_repository')
GitHub's wiki homepage from my_repository successfully loaded and edited!
