It supports extracting texts, sections, links, categories, translations, etc from Wikipedia. Documentation provides code snippets for the most common use cases.\n\n.. _Wikipedias': https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/API:Main_page\n\n|github-stars-flat| |cc-coverage| |docs| |version| |pyversions|\n\nInstallation\n------------\n\nThis package requires at least Python 3.9 to install because it's using IntEnum.\n\n.. code-block:: python\n\n pip3 install wikipedia-api\n\n\nUsage\n-----\n\nGoal of ``Wikipedia-API`` is to provide simple and easy to use API for retrieving informations from Wikipedia. Bellow are examples of common use cases.\n\nImporting\n~~~~~~~~~\n\n.. code-block:: python\n\n import wikipediaapi\n\nHow To Get Single Page\n~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~\n\nGetting single page is straightforward. You have to initialize ``Wikipedia`` object and ask for page by its name.\nTo initialize it, you have to provide:\n\n* `user_agent` to identify your project. Please follow the recommended `format`_.\n* `language` to specify language mutation. It has to be one of `supported languages`_.\n\n.. _format: https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/User-Agent_policy\n.. _supported languages: http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/List_of_Wikipedias\n\n.. code-block:: python\n\n import wikipediaapi\n wiki_wiki = wikipediaapi.Wikipedia(user_agent='MyProjectName (merlin@example.com)', language='en')\n\n page_py = wiki_wiki.page('Python_(programming_language)')\n\n\nHow To Check If Wiki Page Exists\n~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~\n\nFor checking, whether page exists, you can use function ``exists``.\n\n.. code-block:: python\n\n page_py = wiki_wiki.page('Python_(programming_language)')\n print(\"Page - Exists: %s\" % page_py.exists())\n # Page - Exists: True\n\n page_missing = wiki_wiki.page('NonExistingPageWithStrangeName')\n print(\"Page - Exists: %s\" % page_missing.exists())\n # Page - Exists: False\n\nHow To Get Page Summary\n~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~\n\nClass ``WikipediaPage`` has property ``summary``, which returns description of Wiki page.\n\n.. code-block:: python\n\n\n import wikipediaapi\n wiki_wiki = wikipediaapi.Wikipedia('MyProjectName (merlin@example.com)', 'en')\n\n print(\"Page - Title: %s\" % page_py.title)\n # Page - Title: Python (programming language)\n\n print(\"Page - Summary: %s\" % page_py.summary[0:60])\n # Page - Summary: Python is a widely used high-level programming language for\n\n\nHow To Get Page URL\n~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~\n\n``WikipediaPage`` has two properties with URL of the page. It is ``fullurl`` and ``canonicalurl``.\n\n.. code-block:: python\n\n print(page_py.fullurl)\n # https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Python_(programming_language)\n\n print(page_py.canonicalurl)\n # https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Python_(programming_language)\n\nHow To Get Full Text\n~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~\n\nTo get full text of Wikipedia page you should use property ``text`` which constructs text of the page\nas concatanation of summary and sections with their titles and texts.\n\n.. code-block:: python\n\n wiki_wiki = wikipediaapi.Wikipedia(\n user_agent='MyProjectName (merlin@example.com)',\n language='en',\n extract_format=wikipediaapi.ExtractFormat.WIKI\n )\n\n p_wiki = wiki_wiki.page(\"Test 1\")\n print(p_wiki.text)\n # Summary\n # Section 1\n # Text of section 1\n # Section 1.1\n # Text of section 1.1\n # ...\n\n\n wiki_html = wikipediaapi.Wikipedia(\n user_agent='MyProjectName (merlin@example.com)',\n language='en',\n extract_format=wikipediaapi.ExtractFormat.HTML\n )\n p_html = wiki_html.page(\"Test 1\")\n print(p_html.text)\n #

\n # ...\n\nHow To Get Page Sections\n~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~\n\nTo get all top level sections of page, you have to use property ``sections``. It returns list of\n``WikipediaPageSection``, so you have to use recursion to get all subsections.\n\n.. code-block:: python\n\n def print_sections(sections, level=0):\n for s in sections:\n print(\"%s: %s - %s\" % (\"*\" * (level + 1), s.title, s.text[0:40]))\n print_sections(s.sections, level + 1)\n\n\n print_sections(page_py.sections)\n # *: History - Python was conceived in the late 1980s,\n # *: Features and philosophy - Python is a multi-paradigm programming l\n # *: Syntax and semantics - Python is meant to be an easily readable\n # **: Indentation - Python uses whitespace indentation, rath\n # **: Statements and control flow - Python's statements include (among other\n # **: Expressions - Some Python expressions are similar to l\n\nHow To Get Page Section By Title\n~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~\n\nTo get last section of page with given title, you have to use function ``section_by_title``.\nIt returns the last ``WikipediaPageSection`` with this title.\n\n.. code-block:: python\n\n section_history = page_py.section_by_title('History')\n print(\"%s - %s\" % (section_history.title, section_history.text[0:40]))\n\n # History - Python was conceived in the late 1980s b\n\nHow To Get All Page Sections By Title\n~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~\n\nTo get all sections of page with given title, you have to use function ``sections_by_title``.\nIt returns the all ``WikipediaPageSection`` with this title.\n\n.. code-block:: python\n\n page_1920 = wiki_wiki.page('1920')\n sections_january = page_1920.sections_by_title('January')\n for s in sections_january:\n print(\"* %s - %s\" % (s.title, s.text[0:40]))\n\n # * January - January 1\n # Polish–Soviet War in 1920: The\n # * January - January 2\n # Isaac Asimov, American author\n # * January - January 1 – Zygmunt Gorazdowski, Polish\n\nHow To Get Page In Other Languages\n~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~\n\nIf you want to get other translations of given page, you should use property ``langlinks``. It is map,\nwhere key is language code and value is ``WikipediaPage``.\n\n.. code-block:: python\n\n def print_langlinks(page):\n langlinks = page.langlinks\n for k in sorted(langlinks.keys()):\n v = langlinks[k]\n print(\"%s: %s - %s: %s\" % (k, v.language, v.title, v.fullurl))\n\n print_langlinks(page_py)\n # af: af - Python (programmeertaal): https://af.wikipedia.org/wiki/Python_(programmeertaal)\n # als: als - Python (Programmiersprache): https://als.wikipedia.org/wiki/Python_(Programmiersprache)\n # an: an - Python: https://an.wikipedia.org/wiki/Python\n # ar: ar - بايثون: https://ar.wikipedia.org/wiki/%D8%A8%D8%A7%D9%8A%D8%AB%D9%88%D9%86\n # as: as - পাইথন: https://as.wikipedia.org/wiki/%E0%A6%AA%E0%A6%BE%E0%A6%87%E0%A6%A5%E0%A6%A8\n\n page_py_cs = page_py.langlinks['cs']\n print(\"Page - Summary: %s\" % page_py_cs.summary[0:60])\n # Page - Summary: Python (anglická výslovnost [ˈpaiθtən]) je vysokoúrovňový sk\n\nHow To Get Links To Other Pages\n~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~\n\nIf you want to get all links to other wiki pages from given page, you need to use property ``links``.\nIt's map, where key is page title and value is ``WikipediaPage``.\n\n.. code-block:: python\n\n def print_links(page):\n links = page.links\n for title in sorted(links.keys()):\n print(\"%s: %s\" % (title, links[title]))\n\n print_links(page_py)\n # 3ds Max: 3ds Max (id: ??, ns: 0)\n # ?:: ?: (id: ??, ns: 0)\n # ABC (programming language): ABC (programming language) (id: ??, ns: 0)\n # ALGOL 68: ALGOL 68 (id: ??, ns: 0)\n # Abaqus: Abaqus (id: ??, ns: 0)\n # ...\n\nHow To Get Page Categories\n~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~\n\nIf you want to get all categories under which page belongs, you should use property ``categories``.\nIt's map, where key is category title and value is ``WikipediaPage``.\n\n.. code-block:: python\n\n def print_categories(page):\n categories = page.categories\n for title in sorted(categories.keys()):\n print(\"%s: %s\" % (title, categories[title]))\n\n\n print(\"Categories\")\n print_categories(page_py)\n # Category:All articles containing potentially dated statements: ...\n # Category:All articles with unsourced statements: ...\n # Category:Articles containing potentially dated statements from August 2016: ...\n # Category:Articles containing potentially dated statements from March 2017: ...\n # Category:Articles containing potentially dated statements from September 2017: ...\n\nHow To Get All Pages From Category\n~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~\n\nTo get all pages from given category, you should use property ``categorymembers``. It returns all members of given category.\nYou have to implement recursion and deduplication by yourself.\n\n.. code-block:: python\n\n def print_categorymembers(categorymembers, level=0, max_level=1):\n for c in categorymembers.values():\n print(\"%s: %s (ns: %d)\" % (\"*\" * (level + 1), c.title, c.ns))\n if c.ns == wikipediaapi.Namespace.CATEGORY and level < max_level:\n print_categorymembers(c.categorymembers, level=level + 1, max_level=max_level)\n\n\n cat = wiki_wiki.page(\"Category:Physics\")\n print(\"Category members: Category:Physics\")\n print_categorymembers(cat.categorymembers)\n\n # Category members: Category:Physics\n # * Statistical mechanics (ns: 0)\n # * Category:Physical quantities (ns: 14)\n # ** Refractive index (ns: 0)\n # ** Vapor quality (ns: 0)\n # ** Electric susceptibility (ns: 0)\n # ** Specific weight (ns: 0)\n # ** Category:Viscosity (ns: 14)\n # *** Brookfield Engineering (ns: 0)\n\nUse Extra API Parameters\n~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~\n\nOfficial API supports many different parameters. You can see them in the `sandbox`_. Not all these\nparameters are supported directly as parameters of the functions. If you want to specify them,\nyou can pass them as additional parameters in the constructor. For the `info API call`_ you can\nspecify parameter `converttitles`. If you want to specify it, you can use:\n\n.. code-block:: python\n\n import sys\n\n import wikipediaapi\n wiki_wiki = wikipediaapi.Wikipedia('MyProjectName (merlin@example.com)', 'zh', 'zh-tw', extra_api_params={'converttitles': 1})\n page = wiki_wiki.page(\"孟卯\")\n print(repr(page.varianttitles))\n\n\n.. _sandbox: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:ApiSandbox\n.. _info API call: https://zh.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:API%E6%B2%99%E7%9B%92#action=query&format=json&variant=zh-tw&prop=info&titles=%E5%AD%9F%E5%8D%AF&converttitles=1&formatversion=2&inprop=varianttitles%7Cdisplaytitle\n\nHow To See Underlying API Call\n~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~\n\nIf you have problems with retrieving data you can get URL of undrerlying API call.\nThis will help you determine if the problem is in the library or somewhere else.\n\n.. code-block:: python\n\n import sys\n\n import wikipediaapi\n wikipediaapi.log.setLevel(level=wikipediaapi.logging.DEBUG)\n\n # Set handler if you use Python in interactive mode\n out_hdlr = wikipediaapi.logging.StreamHandler(sys.stderr)\n out_hdlr.setFormatter(wikipediaapi.logging.Formatter('%(asctime)s %(message)s'))\n out_hdlr.setLevel(wikipediaapi.logging.DEBUG)\n wikipediaapi.log.addHandler(out_hdlr)\n\n wiki = wikipediaapi.Wikipedia(user_agent='MyProjectName (merlin@example.com)', language='en')\n\n page_ostrava = wiki.page('Ostrava')\n print(page_ostrava.summary)\n # logger prints out: Request URL: http://en.wikipedia.org/w/api.php?action=query&prop=extracts&titles=Ostrava&explaintext=1&exsectionformat=wiki\n\nExternal Links\n--------------\n\n* `GitHub`_\n* `PyPi`_\n* `ReadTheDocs`_\n\n..
