Hi, folks,
Recently, I'm working on a research project which needs
extracting article information from wikipedia.
I managed to get pywikibot work on my computer and was able to
pull out a few simple results.
One
question is regarding a method called
pywikibot.pagegenerators.AllpagesPageGenerator.
By
setting the argument "content" to "True", it will return a
page generator with current version. But, which version will
be returned if setting the argument to False?
Also, is there a way in pywikibot to get a page generator that
contains articles/pages up to a certain date?
Maybe, pywikibot is not a right tool to do this.
I was thinking of using wiki dump data instead of using a wiki
API.
But, it seems the files are huge. I appreciate it you happen
to have any idea to deal with this.
Thanks a lot!
