[13:53:05] hello there. I want to run some research in wikipedia data, mainly in portuguese/english/spanish/french. I do not need multimedia data, mostly the text and the metadata as categories, titles, etc. What is the best way download this data? [15:39:53] Hi are there any docs on installing mediawiki with a pre-built localsettings.php file? [15:39:53] I.e. I just need to invoke the database setup portion of the installer [15:48:04] jediminer543263: that's not possible, sadly. Most you can do is to rename LocalSettings.php, run install.php providing the necessary database information, return LocalSettings.php back, and run update.php... [15:48:17] Note: Your petition is tracked at T172555 [15:48:18] T172555: If LocalSettings.php exists, but database is empty, user should be prompted to install and not download new LocalSettings.php - https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T172555 [15:50:04] Is it just running tables.sql and tables-generated.sql ? [15:51:16] I can do the user gen with https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:CreateAndPromote.php [15:51:50] So all I really need is to know if those two are adequate to setup the database [16:09:33] It should work. You probably need to run initSiteStats.php too [16:23:01] Oki so bootstrapping is: [16:23:01] - Custom php script to query the contents of tables.sql (and generated-tables) [16:23:02] - Run initSiteStats.php to init stats [16:23:02] - Run CreateAndPromote.php to init a sysop user [16:23:12] I'll try that and see if it works; thanks [20:57:30] hi there, i need to run my job queue on redis (due to using CirrusSearch) and was wondering what the consequences are if my redis instance went away/died while it had some jobs in the queue? [20:58:02] for mediawiki 1.35 ^ [20:58:48] basically, i'm trying to figure out how durable/robust that redis instance needs to be - if it is OK if jobs get lost? [20:59:22] apologies in advance, I'm pretty new to the mediawiki stack :) [21:17:03] The "worst" that should happen is things being out of date [21:17:42] geneboi: redis can be backed on disk. I use redis and I have 2 instances: one diskless used only for caching, and a disk backed for things that need persistence: jobs and sessions [22:26:57] shucks, my connection dropped - hope I didn't miss a response [22:27:23] There's channel logs up in the topic :) [22:28:13] ha! thank you perryprog [22:28:45] Reedy Vulpix - thanks [22:28:57] o7 [22:29:32] would things being out of date correct itself, once redis comes back and new jobs can be added again? [22:30:17] They can... But you'd need to manually purge pages etc [22:30:50] purge pages? [22:32:00] nm! [22:32:04] * geneboi reads the manual :D
