Wikibase Migrator

WikibaseMigrator is a tool to migrate wikibase entities from one wikibase instance to another. During the migration process all used Item and Property IDs are mapped to the IDs from the target Wikibase instance.

Installation

pip install wikibasemigrator

for Development

Install WikibaseMigrator after cloning with

pip install .

for development with

pip install .[test]

How to use

Docker

docker run  -p 8009:8080 -v ~/.config/WikibaseMigrator/profiles/WikibaseMigrationTest.yaml:/config.yaml tholzheim/wbmigrator

Exchange ~/.config/WikibaseMigrator/profiles/WikibaseMigrationTest.yaml with the location of your migration profile configuration if needed

Web UI

The webserver can be started over the cli with

 wbmigrate webserver --config FactGrid.yaml --host localhost --port 9100

or with docker

CLI Tool

After installing the project cli is available under the name ẁbmigrate

Merging Entities

If an entity already exists in the target wikibase instance the source entity is first translated to the target and then merged with the target entity. The merging of entities differs from the default wikibase entity merging for cases where the statement does not have qualifiers. In this case if the statement value is equal the qualifiers of the source are merged into the target. Otherwise, the merge results in an additional statement to preserve both qualifier information (equal to the wikibase entity merge)
