How to download a mediawiki website for offline use
I needed to download the reference section of the so I could teach a class without needing to have all the computers live on the internet. Here’s how I did it:
C:\Program Files\GnuWin32\bin>wget -r --convert-links --page-requisites --html-extension --no-parent -R '*action=diff*,*action=edit*' http://arduino.cc/en/Reference/HomePage
Here’s how that parses out:
-r recursive --convert-links --page-requisites --html-extension --no-parent -R '*action=diff*,*action=edit*' don't get wiki tidbits
you should probly set that up to not use the pre tag cuz the second half of that command gets cut off. let that thing wrap! (and yes i know you can scroll across it but simplicity is best when dealing with the web)
I changed it to a <code> tag. Thanks.
Hi,
Thanks for the useful way to obtain a wiki.
