[17:33:39] how to run the same script on cron on a remote script? [17:33:59] how to make the authentication persistance on that remote server for cron? [17:37:15] You'll have to create a configuration file, which is described in https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:Pywikibot/user-config.py [17:37:32] if you're running on a Wikimedia site, you should use OAuth: https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:Pywikibot/OAuth/Wikimedia [17:38:27] I created the user-config.py file [17:38:38] will check for oauth is new to me [17:38:42] will explore it [17:38:45] thanks AntiComposite [17:39:33] seems oauth is the answers for my questions [17:39:48] will raise a request for it
