A MediaWiki client library in Rust

Examples

Get all categories of "Albert Einstein" on English Wikipedia: ``` let mut api = mediawiki::api::Api::new("https://en.wikipedia.org/w/api.php");

// Query parameters let params: HashMap<_, _> = vec![ ("action", "query"), ("prop", "categories"), ("titles", "Albert Einstein"), ("cllimit", "500"), ] .into_iter() .collect();

// Run query; this will automatically continue if more results are available, and merge all results into one let res = api.getqueryapijsonall(&params).unwrap();

// Parse result let categories: Vec<&str> = res["query"]["pages"] .asobject() .unwrap() .iter() .flatmap(|(pageid, page)| { page["categories"] .asarray() .unwrap() .iter() .map(|c| c["title"].asstr().unwrap()) }) .collect();

dbg!(&categories); ```

Edit the Wikidata Sandbox Item (as a bot): ``` let mut api = mediawiki::api::Api::new("https://www.wikidata.org/w/api.php"); api.login("MY BOT USER NAME", "MY BOT PASSWORD").unwrap();

let token = api.getedittoken().unwrap(); let params: HashMap<_, _> = vec![ ("action", "wbeditentity"), ("id", "Q4115189"), ("data",r#"{"claims":[{"mainsnak":{"snaktype":"value","property":"P1810","datavalue":{"value":"ExampleString","type":"string"}},"type":"statement","rank":"normal"}]}"#), ("token", &token), ] .intoiter() .collect(); let res = api.postqueryapijson(&params).unwrap(); ```
