  • mediawiktory

    Full-featured MediaWiki client

    • I have a set of MediaWiktory (low-level idiomatic Wikipedia API) + Infoboxer (high-level client/markup parser)

  • wikiscript

    wikiscript gem - scripts for wikipedia (get wikitext for page, parse tables & links, etc.)

    • In my little wikiscript parser I try to make it easy to add new templates - a template is just a ruby function, see https://github.com/wikiscript/wikiscript/blob/master/countries/templates.rb but yes, maybe the template source itself from Wikipedia can get used (as a fallback).

  • wikicloth

    Ruby implementation of the MediaWiki markup language.

    • Sure that counts. I guess that's the parser https://github.com/nricciar/wikicloth. Looking good. Thanks. Cheers. Prost.
