Dear Wikibase experts, I have a (hopefully) trivial question to ask: is there any specific configuration to set in order to make a wikibase extension accessible via libraries such as Pywikibot? Should I maybe activate the wikibase_client ? Here's the problem described from the Pywikibot point of view: when I try to connect to my wikibase installation, I can access the mediawiki pages... In [1]: import pywikibot In [2]: site = pywikibot.Site() In [9]: page = pywikibot.Page(site, u"Main_Page") In [10]: page.get() Out[10]: u"<strong>MediaWiki ha ........................ ...but I cannot access the wikibase Items (created in the same mediawiki installation), since the "site.data_repository()" method (of my local Pywikibot site-object) returns an EMPTY value... In [37]: site.data_repository() In [38]: type(site.data_repository()) Out[38]: NoneType While, if I access (the same way) the wikibase instance of https://test.wikidata.org (of course) I get a correct response from the "site.data_repository()" method (of my local Pywikibot site-object): In [39]: wikidatatest_site = pywikibot.Site("test", "wikidata") In [40]: wikidatatest_site.data_repository() Out[40]: DataSite("test", "wikidata") In [41]: type(wikidatatest_site.data_repository()) Out[41]: pywikibot.site.DataSite Here are the main details of my mediawiki/wikibase installation: - MediaWiki: 1.26.2 - PHP: 5.6.15 (apache2handler) - MariaDB: 10.1.9-MariaDB - ICU: 4.8.1.1 ...with these extensions (with specific versions) for Wikibase: - Purtle: 0.1-dev - Wikibase DataModel: 4.4.0 - Wikibase DataModel JavaScript: 1.0.2-dev - Wikibase DataModel Serialization: 2.1.0 - Wikibase Internal Serialization: 2.1.0 - Wikibase JavaScript API: 1.1.0 - Wikibase Repository: 0.5 alpha (32d7ef0) 00:03, 30 September 2015 - Wikibase Serialization JavaScript: 2.0.6 - Wikibase View: 0.1-dev - WikibaseLib: 0.5 alpha (32d7ef0) 00:03, 30 September 2015 If this question is asked in the wrong context I'm really sorry (I searched with no success the official pages of Wikibase and the archive of this mailing-list, http://blog.gmane.org/gmane.org.wikimedia.wikidata.technical): please let me know whether I should better ask this question to the Pywikibot library guys. Thanks a lot for attention! _______________________________________________ Wikidata-tech mailing list Wikidata-tech(a)lists.wikimedia.org https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikidata-tech
