kandi X-RAY | mediawiktory Summary

mediawiktory is a Ruby library typically used in Web Services, REST applications. mediawiktory has no bugs, it has no vulnerabilities, it has a Permissive License and it has low support. You can download it from GitHub.

MediaWiktory is a MediaWiki (think Wikipedia, Wiktionary and others) API client. It is the only client that allows (almost) full access to MediaWiki API powers without loosing of Ruby powers. MediaWiki API currently is very powerful and full-featured (thought not very easy to use). Things like "fetch first 50 pages from that category alongside with their revision history and interwiki links and mediafile stats" are typically done with one carefully constructed request and return lots of useful information. Yes, there already are several API clients for Ruby, including "official" one. Typical approach for all of them is thick wrapper around some functionality (like "login and edit pages" or "search and analyze pages"), and leave all the other cool things for generic action method (at best), or without any coverage at all.

How to get specific results using MediaWiki API in Rails backend?

QUESTION

How to get specific results using MediaWiki API in Rails backend?

Asked 2019-Feb-24 at 17:09

I'm doing my final project for a coding school that will be a deep song search app that returns every detail about a song (composer, personnel on the track, lyrics, studio, media uses, images, etc). I'm using React frontend/Rails backend API. I'm new to API's and have tried Discogs and Musicbrainz but find the Mediawiki to be the easiest to traverse. Messing with their sandbox using Query, I feel like I'm getting closer but wondering if anyone with more experience out there could help me get precisely what I need.

I would like a music search to return a list of matches (could be same title but different songs or same title but different recordings). A user can click on the results to see the details. I would like the API to return links and hopefully images (album cover, etc). Does anyone know the best way to go about this?

I've also tried using the Ruby Gem wrapper Mediawikitory https://github.com/molybdenum-99/mediawiktory. I like the clean interface but can't quite find the right parameters.

The closest I've come to what I'm looking for in the Mediawiki sandbox is an example like this for the All Star (Smash Mouth):

https://en.wikipedia.org//w/api.php?action=query&format=json&prop=&list=search&continue=-%7C%7C&srsearch=star%20(song)&srlimit=5&sroffset=15&srqiprofile=engine_autoselect&srwhat=text&srinfo=totalhits%7Csuggestion%7Crewrittenquery&srinterwiki=1

This gives a list of songs (I'll have to concatenate '(song)' in every search unless there's a specific category parameter I don't know about).

...

So with further research I was able to drill down to specific song searches (and this will work for any thing this specific). You have to use srsearch and then search option in lists. So an example for a list of songs based on a given title:
