==== Workpackage1: Revamping and fixing bugs ==== | ==== Workpackage1: Revamping and fixing bugs ==== | ||
Unfortunately, the DumpHTML extension is not correctly maintained and with the time [https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/buglist.cgi?query_format=advanced&list_id=2671&component=DumpHTML&resolution=---&product=MediaWiki%20extensions many issues were discovered]. Currently, the extension is not really usable without fixing/tweaking the code. | |||
The purpose of this work package is to fix the most critical bugs that everyone having a Mediawiki would be able to simply get a HTML dumps of his content and consequently easily generate a ZIM file afterwards | |||
After the rewamping, the result should be perfect in HTML | After the rewamping, the result should be perfect in HTML similar to what dumpHTML.pl does. | ||
Delivarables: | |||
* Revamping dumpHTML and fixing bugs (80-120 hours) | |||
==== Workpackage2: phpzim creation an integration in DumpHTML extension ==== | ==== Workpackage2: phpzim creation an integration in DumpHTML extension ==== | ||
==== Workpackage3: Integrating Collection and DumpHTML extensions ==== | phpzim would be a new php module allowing to create/write and read ZIM file directly in PHP. This would be a binding of the zimlib, like pyzim in Python. With this library done, we will be able to create ZIM file directly from the DumpHTML. | ||
To be able to get a ZIM file, the user will have to call dumpHTML.php and specify that he wants a ZIM file output (not a HTML dump) also some other meta informations like title, creator, etc. | |||
So the user will need a system access where the Mediawiki instance runs and also to install phpzim (should be packaged). | |||
Deliverables: | |||
* phpzim (40 hours) | |||
* updated dumpHTML (20 hours) | |||
==== Workpackage3: Integrating Collection and DumpHTML extensions and new features ==== | |||
By integrating the DumpHTML and the Collection extension we want to give to everyone the capacity to easily create small ZIMs from the Wikipedia user interface with following advantages: | |||
* exactly the same rendering as online | |||
* no external dependency to install for the Mediawiki admin | |||
* rendering done by MediaWiki (as fast as online browsing) | |||
In addition we want to implement a few additional features (see the list of deliverables). | |||
Deliverables: | |||
* Book and DumpHTML integration (30 hours) | |||
* DumpHTML parallel processing (15 hours) | |||
* Build selection based on list of titles (20 hours) | |||
* Create an offline skin for mobiles to make dumps for mobiles (15 hours) | |||
* Make offline skin to avoid pictures (5 hours) | |||
