Summary: allow exporting via the api for much more flexible page
choice
Product: MediaWiki
Version: 1.14.0
Platform: All
OS/Version: All
Status: NEW
Severity: trivial
Priority: Normal
Component: API
AssignedTo: roan.katt...@home.nl
ReportedBy: jida...@jidanni.org
CC: bryan.tongm...@gmail.com, vasi...@gmail.com
The api should add a parameter allowing the user to output several
pages in MediaWiki's Special:Export format.
(Currently api.php mentions an export option, but that is a different
export format.)
Perhaps add a parameter to include/remove the Header, and just emit
the <item>s.
Using the api, the user could then have a very powerful tool to export
many more different slices of the wiki than the current maintenance
scripts or Special:Export allows!
And do add a note for users to see on Special:Export that they can
also use the api to export a great many different slices.
