Hi, Is there a way to bulk export the basex docs wiki? Or, if it is backed by a db, get a dump of it? Travelling offline and would love to have access (the built-in pdf creator seems nice but not for getting *everything*) Many thanks, Colin
You may want to have a look at the PDF versions of our Wiki: http://docs.basex.org/wiki/Documentation If anyone out there has some ideas how to make PDF generation easier, we’d be glad for your feedback! ___________________________

Thanks! I see that now on the homepage. Can I suggest that this link be repeated under "print/export" in the left-hand menu? And just out of curiousity, is there a way to get as data (markupl, csv, etc.) ? On Tue, Feb 19, 2013 at 2:59 PM, Christian Grün <christian.gruen@gmail.com>wrote:

Ok, done.

If you find a way, I’d be interested as well ;) The MediaWiki homepage might be a good starting point [1]. Christian [1] http://www.mediawiki.org/
It looks like recent versions of MediaWiki have an api enabled by default - if you have a login you can use it to query the docs, etc. I've just applied for one for docs.basex - if I find anything really cool I'll post back.

All docs pages in a single XML file probably would be a great source for demonstrating full text search. ;) By the way, you can fetch all pages in export format (is there any reader for that but a local mediawiki instance?) -- by using XQuery, of course: declare namespace xhtml = "http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml"; declare namespace wiki = "http://www.mediawiki.org/xml/export-0.4/"; declare option db:parser "html"; let $pages := fn:serialize( doc("http://docs.basex.org/wiki/Special:AllPages")//xhtml:table[@class="mw-allpages-table-chunk"]//xhtml:a, map { "method" := "text", "item-separator" := "\r\n" } ) let $request := <http:request href="http://docs.basex.org/index.php?title=Special:Export" method="post"> <http:body media-type="application/x-www-form-urlencoded" method="text"> <![CDATA[catname=&curonly=1&wpDownload=1&pages=]]>{ fn:encode-for-uri($pages) } </http:body> </http:request> return http:send-request($request)//wiki:mediawiki That code interprets the "All Pages" special page and feeds that list into the "Export" page.

@Christian: We're definitely missing some HTTP-Post for form data example in the docs, `<http:body method="text"/>` was really hard to find.
Yeah! I also fought half a day to make it work switching back and forth between BaseX and Expath! :-D M.
