Stupidly simple shell script to export MediaWiki pages (with metadata), as XML

mw-export.sh

#!/bin/bash

# This uses the mediawiki_cli gem; be sure to have it installed

## Usage
#
# Please pass the URL to your site's wiki prefix to this command, like so:
# sh mw-export.sh "http://wikisite/wiki/"
#

SAVEIFS=$IFS
IFS=$(echo -en "\n\b")

mkdir -p mw;

for p in `bundle exec mw list -W $1/api.php`; do
  echo "Exporting $p...";
  bundle exec mw export -W $1/api.php -p "$p" > "mw/$p.mwiki";
done;

IFS=$SAVEIFS
