Step-3: restore the dumps ( to the new Wiki), with the maintenance tools. Another problem is configuration of file formats and permissions, that must be the same or broader in the new Wiki, see Manual:Configuring file uploads. If the Wiki have contents, check problems with filename conflicks (!). you need only Mediafiles.zip, and the Mediawiki installed, with no contents. Step-2: need a backup? installing a copy of the images?.
#Mediawiki upload image zip
| zip ~/Mediafiles.zip Mediawiki version the -base=./ option will work fine and you can remove the sed command of the pipe. NOTE: if you are not worried about the ugly folder strutcture, a more direct way is php maintenance/dumpUploads.php \
#Mediawiki upload image zip file
The command results in a standard zip file of your image backup folder, Mediafiles.zip at yor user root directory ( ~/). Zip -r ~/Mediafiles.zip /tmp/workingBackupMediaFiles | xargs cp -t /tmp/workingBackupMediaFiles | sed 's~mwstore://local-backend/local-public~./images~' \ Step-1: generate the image dumps using dumpUploads (with -local or -shared options when preservation need), that creates a txt list of all image filenames in use. The ugly images/?/?/* folder format is not suitable, as usual "all image files in only one folder".įor "Exporting and Importing" all current images in one folder at MediaWiki server's terminal, there are a step-by-step single procedure. There are a lot of expurious files: "deleted files" and "old files" (not the current) with filenames as 20160627184943!MyFig.png, and thumbnails as MyFig.png/120px-MyFig.jpg.įor data-interchange or long-term preservation porpurses, it is invalid. The Mediawiki's images folder can be zipped with zip -r ~/Mediafiles.zip images command, but this zip is not so good: Once uploaded, files are stored in a folder on the file system, and thumbnails in a dedicated thumb directory. Users upload files through the Special:Upload page administrators can configure the allowed file types through an extension whitelist. Note: all cited (below) scripts have also -help option, for instance php maintenance/importImages.php -help Original image folder New Mediawiki versions run all standard scripts in the tasks described below, but old versions have some bugs or not have all moderns scripts: check the version number by grep wgVersion includes/DefaultSettings.php. MediaWiki administrator, at server's terminal, can perform maintenance tasks using the Maintenance scripts framework.
