Benjamin Mako Hill 791be0aa56 regenerate test baselines for the redirect_target column
Commit 59fea19 added a redirect_target column to wikiq output but did
not regenerate the test baselines, leaving 14 baseline-comparison tests
failing. Regenerate the affected baselines from current output. Each
regenerated file was verified to differ from its old baseline only by
the addition of the new column: row counts and all values in shared
columns are identical.

Also add the noargs_sailormoon.jsonl baseline used by test_jsonl_noargs,
which was never committed.

When you install this from git, you will need to first clone the repository:

git clone git://projects.mako.cc/mediawiki_dump_tools

From within the repository working directory, initiatlize and set up the submodule like:

git submodule init
git submodule update

Wikimedia dumps are usually in a compressed format such as 7z (most common), gz, or bz2. Wikiq uses your computer's compression software to read these files. Therefore wikiq depends on [7za]{.title-ref}, [gzcat]{.title-ref}, and [zcat]{.title-ref}.

Dependencies

These non-Python dependencies must be installed on your system for wikiq and its associated tests to work.

  • 7zip
  • ffmpeg

A new diff engine based on [_wikidiff2]{.title-ref} can be used for word-persistence. Wikiq can also output the diffs between each page revision. This requires installing Wikidiff 2 on your system. On Debian or Ubuntu Linux this can be done via.

apt-get install php-wikidiff2

You may have to also run. sudo phpenmod wikidiff2.

Tests ----To run tests:

python -m unittest test.Wikiq_Unit_Test
