A tool for archiving DokuWiki.
Recommend using dokuWikiDumper on modern filesystems, such as ext4 or btrfs. NTFS is not recommended because it denies many special characters in the filename.
We crawl every MediaWiki site (with 1.5s crawl-delay) every year and upload to the Internet Archive. If you don’t want your wiki to be archived, add the following to your <domain>/robots.txt:
User-agent: dokuWikiDumper Disallow: /Our bots are running on the following IPs: wikiteam3.txt (ips, contact) | wikiteam3.ips.txt (ips)
- Python 3.8+ (developed on py3.10)
- beautifulsoup4
- requests
- lxml
- rich
Upload wiki dump to Internet Archive.

This may cause incomplete dumps. --ignore-action-disabled-edit Some sites disable edit action for anonymous users and some core pages. This option will ignore this error and textarea not found error.But you may only get a partial dump.

dokuWikiDumper https://example.com/wiki/ --content --media --html --threads 3 --ignore-action-disabled-editHighly recommend using
--usernameand--passwordto login (or using--cookies), because some sites may disable anonymous users to access some pages or check the raw wikitext.
--cookies accepts a Netscape cookies file, you can use cookies.txt Extension to export cookies from Firefox. It also accepts a json cookies file created by Cookie Quick Manager. Bring a cookies file when the wiki requires you to be logged in (e.g. company ACLs or Keycloak/SSO frontends); the dumper loads those cookies before its first request so it can see the authenticated wiki immediately.

If you need to import Dokuwiki, please add the following configuration to local.php
$conf['fnencode'] = 'utf-8'; // Dokuwiki default: 'safe' (url encode) # 'safe' => Non-ASCII characters will be escaped as %xx form. # 'utf-8' => Non-ASCII characters will be preserved as UTF-8 characters. $conf['compression'] = '0'; // Dokuwiki default: 'gz'. # 'gz' => attic/<id>.<rev_id>.txt.gz # 'bz2' => attic/<id>.<rev_id>.txt.bz2 # '0' => attic/<id>.<rev_id>.txtImport pages dir if you only need the latest version of the page.
Import meta dir if you need the changelog of the page.
Import attic and meta dirs if you need the old revisions content of the page.

- wikiteam/WikiTeam, a tool for archiving MediaWiki, written in Python 2 that you won't want to use nowadays. :(
- mediawiki-client-tools/MediaWiki Scraper (aka
wikiteam3), a tool for archiving MediaWiki, forked from WikiTeam and has been rewritten in Python 3. (Lack of code writers and reviewers, STWP no longer maintains this repo.) - saveweb/WikiTeam3 forked from MediaWiki Scraper, maintained by STWP. :)
- DigitalDwagon/WikiBot a Discord and IRC bot to run the dokuWikiDumper and wikiteam3 in the background.
GPLv3
This tool is based on an unmerged PR (8 years ago!) of WikiTeam: DokuWiki dump alpha by @PiRSquared17.
I (@yzqzss) have rewritten the code in Python 3 and added some features, also fixed some bugs.
