Wiki Importer Enhancements
As the existing Wiki Importer ( GSOC PROJECT - SANDBOX ) have few set backs in architecture, i would like to make a proposal to modify and enhance to make it better.
Wiki Importer API
Wiki Importer:
- import(List<InputStream> in)::Wiki takes the list of InputStreams like XML's, Zips etc which varies from Wiki to Wiki parses the data to return a Abstract Wiki Model which can be used in import to XWiki.
For eg: In case of a MediaWiki XML dump, the xml files and zip file with attachments can be passed as a list of InputStreams.They are parsed one by one on demand and returned as a Wiki Model.
Wiki Model API
The revised Wiki Model API,every Wiki implements this Abstract Wiki Model API which adheres to XWiki standards.
