dumpgenerator.py: incremental dumps

Open vss-devel opened this issue 9 years ago • 3 comments

It could be quite useful to have an option to dump only pages and images modified after some date or after a previous dump was taken. This way it would be possible to reduce load onto a server and save some time on making dump and importing pages into a wiki.

This will be easier if we add the option to iterate over revision IDs for export from the web API, as opposed to iterating over title for export from Special:Export.

I too want this function. I regularly need to dump various wikias to stay on top of things. I think another good function to add would be to add the ability to download only missing pages when the dump was created.

This feature is really really needed. Any chance to see it on the horizon?
