NAME

Wiki::Gateway - library for interacting with remote wikis

SYNOPSIS

use Wiki::Gateway;

$result = Wiki::Gateway::getPage('http://interwiki.sourceforge.net/cgi-bin/wiki.pl', $wiki_type, 'SandBox');

$result = Wiki::Gateway::putPage('http://interwiki.sourceforge.net/cgi-bin/wiki.pl', $wiki_type, 'SandBox', $page_source_text);

$timestamp = Wiki::Gateway::daysAgoToDate(1); $result = Wiki::Gateway::getRecentChanges('http://interwiki.sourceforge.net/cgi-bin/wiki.pl',$wiki_type, $timestamp);

$result = Wiki::Gateway::getAllPages('http://interwiki.sourceforge.net/cgi-bin/wiki.pl',$wiki_type);

# to check if there was an error, and to see what it was if so: if (Wiki::Gateway::getLastExceptionType()) { print Wiki::Gateway::getLastExceptionType() . "\n"; }

DESCRIPTION

Wiki::Gateway allows you to interact with remote wikis. It presents a unified API for interfacing with a variety of different wiki engines. It allows you to read, to write, to get RecentChanges, and to get a list of all pages on the target wiki.

Right now, WikiGateway supports (i.e. knows how to talk to) the following wiki engines:

 * MoinMoin             
     $wiki_type = "moinmoin1"
 * UseMod version 1.0         
     $wiki_type = "usemod1"
 * Some older UseMod versions (tested on .91) 
     $wiki_type = "usemod1"
 * OddMuse                    
     $wiki_type = "oddmuse1"
 * Any wiki which provides the WikiRPCInterface2 XMLRPC interface
     $wiki_type = "xmlrpc2"
