Dump algorithm

Sketch:

• Check https://www.dokuwiki.org/devel:xmlrpc API availability.
• Generate list of titles (XML-RPC)
• Use 'wiki.getAllPages' or 'dokuwiki.getPagelist' (is this restricted to single NS at a time?). (TODO: determine if this is usable)
• Generate list of titles (do=index or ajax.php)
• Try to load [https://www.dokuwiki.org/lib/exe/ajax.php?call=index](/lib/exe/ajax.php call=index) (exists in newer versions) or https://www.dokuwiki.org/?do=index (present since first release)
• Recursively, for each namespace, load the appropriate sub-index, adding each title to a list.
• Add root pages to list.
• Generate list of media/files/uploads
• Check for https://www.dokuwiki.org/lib/exe/mediamanager.php or https://www.dokuwiki.org/?do=media
• If it exists, use it recursively in each namespace, collecting a list of all file names (or just downloading each) e.g. https://www.dokuwiki.org/lib/exe/mediamanager.php?ns=plugin:data
• Extract file details from https://www.dokuwiki.org/lib/exe/detail.php?media=aclexample.png or https://www.dokuwiki.org/start?do=media&image=aclexample.png&ns=
• Or /lib/exe/ajax.php call=medialist on each namespace?
• Or https://www.dokuwiki.org/devel:xmlrpc#wikigetattachments?
• Export current page content
• https://www.dokuwiki.org/export: https://www.dokuwiki.org/export?do=export_raw (not in first release) or XML-RPC wiki.getPage. wiki.getPageInfo gives metadata about the current revision.
• https://www.dokuwiki.org/dokuinstall?do=edit scrape textarea content
• Export full history
• https://www.dokuwiki.org/dokuinstall?do=revisions or XML-RPC wiki.getPageVersions.
• For each revision, do ?rev=insert_rev_id_here&do=edit or ?rev=1234&do=export_raw. Or XML-RPC wiki.getPageVersion. wiki.getPageInfoVersion gives revision metadata.
• Get site version and metadata
• Note: In recent DokuWiki releases, it is not possible to get the version.
• Download https://www.dokuwiki.org/?do=check
• Try to preview a page with the following content ([https://www.dokuwiki.org/plugin:info](example output)):

List of wikis

• http://www.usemod.com/cgi-bin/wiki.pl?SiteList
• http://wikiindex.org/Category:UseModWiki
• More: Google "displaying wiki version", "Index of all pages" "pages found", "This page is read-only" "View other revisions", "Edit this page" "View other revisions", wiki inurl:wiki.pl

Dump algorithm

• Check if raw=1 is available.
• Get list of pages
• Use http://usemod.com/cgi-bin/wiki.pl?action=index (add &raw=1 if available).
• Download current version only
• For each page title, either get action=browse&id=FooBar&raw=1 (preferable) or action=edit&id=FooBar. If raw not available, scrape textarea content of edit box.
• Loop
• Get history of each page (note: UseModWiki history is not permanent!)
• Use action=history&id=FooBar
• Parse.
• For each revision, download raw content:
• If action=browse&id=Foo&revision=123&raw=1 is available, use that. Otherwise, use action=edit&id=Foo&revision=123
• Get images.
• Go through each saved page text, and search for image URLs defined using same regex as UseModWiki uses.
• Save image.
• Save site version/metadata.
• Save action=version. In UseModWiki, this is not very useful, but it's cool to have for Oddmuse. Example: http://communitywiki.org/?action=version
