|
hi all. i'm about to develop a mobile app which could be used to upload recordings of pronunciations of different words to commons.
|
2018-11-21 16:33:56
|
<kaartic>
|
first, i wanted to know if one existed already
|
2018-11-21 16:33:58
|
<kaartic>
|
?
|
2018-11-21 16:35:03
|
<CFisch_WMDE>
|
kaartic: there might be something like that already
|
2018-11-21 16:35:13
|
<CFisch_WMDE>
|
we'll have a look :-)
|
2018-11-21 16:37:08
|
<kaartic>
|
OK. where do you look up info about apps like these?
|
2018-11-21 16:37:35
|
<chiborg>
|
kaartic There is https://lingualibre.fr/wiki/LinguaLibre:Main_Page that collects audio recording. Are you looking for an app frontend for that page or a project like this in general?
|
2018-11-21 16:37:50
|
<Nudin_WMDE>
|
kaartic: hi
|
2018-11-21 16:38:27
|
<Nudin_WMDE>
|
I wanted to develop the exact same thing ;)
|
2018-11-21 16:38:32
|
<CFisch_WMDE>
|
kaartic: afaik there's no central place for wiki related apps
|
2018-11-21 16:38:48
|
<CFisch_WMDE>
|
for Commons there's this page https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Commons:Upload_tools#Smartphone_apps
|
2018-11-21 16:39:26
|
<Nudin_WMDE>
|
(in my volunteer time)
|
2018-11-21 16:39:37
|
<CFisch_WMDE>
|
Nudin_WMDE: *g*
|
2018-11-21 16:41:05
|
<Nudin_WMDE>
|
I'm currently also investigating LinguaLibre and wether to still develop something. I also have a few friends which would be interested in that, so if you develop something in that direction please let me know :)
|
2018-11-21 16:42:39
|
<Nudin_WMDE>
|
I'm User:MichaelSchoenitzer in my volunteer time btw.
|
2018-11-21 16:43:45
|
<kaartic>
|
chiborg: yeah. I'm looking for an app frontend for it.
|
2018-11-21 16:45:02
|
<CFisch_WMDE>
|
kaartic: I guess https://github.com/commons-app/apps-android-commons is more general purpose but it might be worth it to look at it
|
2018-11-21 16:45:20
|
<kaartic>
|
<Nudin_WMDE> hi. glad to hear that. I'm sort of thinking of developing in that direction (ligualibre)
|
2018-11-21 16:45:37
|
<CFisch_WMDE>
|
and maybe it makes sense to extend / fork the commons app
|
2018-11-21 16:46:53
|
<chiborg>
|
That's also what I would recommend. You could also take some UI inspiration from the app for https://voice.mozilla.org/ , but at least fro me that app did not work well.
|
2018-11-21 16:48:19
|
<kaartic>
|
<CFisch_WMDE> I do use the commons app. but never thought if extending it to add this functionality if I'm into developing this. thanks for the hint :-)
|
2018-11-21 16:49:21
|
<kaartic>
|
CFisch_WMDE: BTW the page you mentioned about apps (https://commons.m.wikimedia.org/wiki/Commons:Upload_tools#Smartphone_apps) seems a not outdated
|
2018-11-21 16:49:36
|
<kaartic>
|
I think there's NP iOS app for commons now
|
2018-11-21 16:49:52
|
<kaartic>
|
oops.NP -> NO
|
2018-11-21 16:51:26
|
<kaartic>
|
Nudin_WMDE: BTW,I'll let you know if I start developing the app
|
2018-11-21 16:51:36
|
<CFisch_WMDE>
|
yeah it seems so - but at leas the code is still there
|

kaartic: regarding the android app: You try to contact the devs there and pitch your project, maybe they have some ideas / suggestions
|
2018-11-21 16:53:31
|
<kaartic>
|
CFisch_WMDE: sure
|
2018-11-21 16:54:09
|
<kaartic>
|

<kaartic>
|
Just wondering, if I wanted to develop a standalone app for this which API should I use to communicate with Commons the Mediawiki API or the RestBase one?
|
2018-11-21 16:55:39
|
<Nudin_WMDE>
|
kaartic: cool! I'm looking forward to hear from you and will write you it I develop something or find something.
|
2018-11-21 16:56:07
|
<kaartic>
|
Does RestBase have all the features for developing such an app?
|
2018-11-21 16:56:44
|
<kaartic>
|
Nudin_WMDE: sure. we'll see. :-)
|
2018-11-21 16:58:24
|
<chiborg>
|
Looking at the available RestBase enpoints at https://en.wikipedia.org/api/rest_v1/ I see none for uploading content. so I guess it's MediaWiki API
|
2018-11-21 16:59:17
|
<chiborg>
|
But you'd have to ask the lingua libra people what APIs they support.
|
2018-11-21 16:59:49
|
<chiborg>
|
Or look at https://lingualibre.fr/api.php
|
2018-11-21 17:00:33
|
<bawolff>
|
chiborg: Anything that involves editing/inserting content usually goes through mediawiki action api

Tell me if this is stupid/ill-advised, but is it possible to write a python (or other) script to update a page with the contents of a file? Trying to setup a workflow for updating a userscript from a CI pipeline.
|
2018-11-21 17:09:31
|
<AntiComposite>
|
Oh...there's someone who does that already. I don't remember who though

Twinkle uses https://github.com/azatoth/twinkle/blob/master/sync.pl to sync from GitHub to a ton of Gadget pages
|
2018-11-21 17:14:24
|
<zchrykng>
|
Ah, nice. If I get this working, it should be fairly reusable. At least for Gitlab's built in CI.
|
2018-11-21 17:14:58
|
<zchrykng>
|
Now I need to learn perl to understand the script though...
|

interesting parameter: "password for account on wikipedia (do not use)"
|
2018-11-21 17:16:04
|
<zchrykng>
|
Maybe legacy option?
|
2018-11-21 17:20:33
|
<Platonides>
|
maybe
|
2018-11-21 17:24:24

<McJohn>
|
Don’t be hatin’ on perl
|
2018-11-21 17:25:32
|
<zchrykng>
|
Not hating on it... just never had any reason to learn it.

2018-11-21 17:43:31

<Isarra>
|
Is there some sort of pattern to what projects have compact language links enabled by default?
|
2018-11-21 17:44:30
|
<Isarra>
|
Which brings me to my other question: did folks actually NOT want it?
|
2018-11-21 17:45:13
|
<Platonides>
|
Isarra: look up the settings at InitialiseSettings.php ?
|
2018-11-21 17:45:50
|
<Isarra>
|
Ah, right.
