how to convert dumps other than EN or IT?

[fabriziorizzo]

Can you add documentation to the readme on how to sufficiently extend this solution to other languages? FR and ES did not work. E.g... $ ./scripts/convert-xml-dump-to-json.sh fr /u01/wikip/dumps.wikipedia/frwiki/frwiki-latest-pages-articles.xml.bz2 ./frwiki-latest-pages-articles.json

@fabriziorizzo thanks for reporting the issue.

There are two issues actually:

Spanish (ES) is supported but I introduced a regression (#32 ) some time ago that I noticed thanks to your comment - could you please try to check out this PR branch https://github.com/diegoceccarelli/json-wikipedia/tree/language, compile and check if it fixes?

French is not supported - and you are right, I should add documentation on how to add a new language! I'll do. In order to support a new language you have to:

1. Provide the mapping of the xml-wikipedia dump in that particular language (e.g., what is the keyword use to indicate a disambiguation page in French? what is the keyword to indicate a redirect, etc). You provide the mapping by writing a property file called locale-fr.properties and putting it in the lang folder, like for example: https://github.com/diegoceccarelli/json-wikipedia/blob/language/src/main/resources/lang/locale-es.properties

2. Once you added the property file into the folder open src/main/avro/article.avsc and add FR to the list of languages as I did for ES in #61.

Please let me know if it works, and, if you write it, it would be great if you can contribute French. Cheers
