Wikia is a Python library that makes it easy to access and parse
data from any wikia website <https://www.wikia.com>
Search a wikia, get article summaries, get data like links and images
from a page, and more. Wikipedia wraps the Wikia API <http://api.wikia.com/wiki/Wikia_API_Wiki>__ so you can focus on using
wikia data, not getting it.
Was rewritten as the original wrapper didn't work for a project.
from wikia import wikia
print(wikia.summary("dancingline", "The_Time"))
# The Time is the 1st normal mode level in Dancing Line.
wikia.search("Runescape", "Forest")
# returns a list of the search word
time = wikia.page("dancingline", "The_Time")
time.title
# u'The Time'
time.url
# u'http://dancingline.wikia.com/wiki/The_Time'
time.content
# u'The Time is the 1st normal mode level in Dancing Line.'...
wikia.set_lang("en") # English
wikia.summary("Runescape", "Runes", sentences=1)
# returns first sentence of the summeryNote: this library was designed for ease of use and simplicity, not for advanced use.
Place the wikia folder in your project and follow the example above. see wikitest.py for example.
