Hi all, could someone please help me to find a way to script the creation of new wiki pages from data/text saved in html files? I’m trying to (semi)automatically organize and upload data to new wiki pages, i.e. analyze and plot data with an external program, sve the information (including page name, etc.) in a html file, and then have some sort of script take the html file – or objects from it – and create a wiki page. It doesn’t have to be fully automatic and include a scheduled service or similar, a script that I can run every day would be fine. I did look for hints but I guess I’m too much of a beginner to piece everything together. I found http://extensions.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Extension/Create+Page+With+Object which tells me that I can script a page creation. Now my naïve question is: Where do I script this? I am not familiar with Velocity (Python is my only scripting language), but willing to learn. From what I could see in tutorials like http://platform.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/DevGuide/XWikiVelocityTraining I put the velocity text in a wiki page (as opposed to run it in a terminal or via some application outside of the wiki pages? Does that mean I create a ‘control’ page with a script that’ll grab data and creates new pages? I f so, it would be great if someone can point me to an example.
