Is there an API for the game wikis?
6 projects | /r/paradoxplaza | 20 Apr 2022

The wikis have the normal mediawiki api and this can be used to update pages. But paradox uses their own login system, so you either have to use a tool which can use a cookie(you login with a browser and take the cookie from the browser) or you have to implement the paradox login in your tool or you have to get an administrator to enable support for a bot password(I have asked for this, but didn't get a reply). I have a python tool which can mirror the eu4 wiki and update some images and do simple page updates and I extended mwclient to handle the paradox login. If there is interest in this, I could clean up my tool and publish it.
