20100428 - I just wrote a simple ruby script which will connect to a mysql server and then recreate the pages and their revision histories with Grit. It also does one simple conversion of equals titles to pounds. Enjoy!

The u32 page is excellent, but I wonder if documenting the procedure here
would be worthwhile. Who knows, the remote site might disappear. But also
there are some variations on the approach that might be useful:
* using a python script and the dom library to extract the page names from
Special:Allpages (such as
<http://www.staff.ncl.ac.uk/jon.dowland/unix/docs/get_pagenames.py>)
* Or, querying the mysql back-end to get the names
* using WWW::MediaWiki for importing/exporting pages from the wiki, instead
of Special::Export
Also, some detail on converting mediawiki transclusion to ikiwiki inlines...

I have manage to recover most of the site using the Internet Archive. What
I was unable to retrieve I have rewritten. You can find a copy of the code

The iki-fast-load ruby script from the u32 page is given below:
#!/usr/bin/env ruby
# This script is called on the final sorted, de-spammed revision
# XML file.
#
# It doesn't currently check for no-op revisions... I believe
# that git-fast-load will dutifully load them even though nothing
# happened. I don't care to solve this by adding a file cache
# to this script. You can run iki-diff-next.rb to highlight any
# empty revisions that need to be removed.
#
# This turns each node into an equivalent file.
# It does not convert spaces to underscores in file names.
# This would break wikilinks.
# I suppose you could fix this with mod_speling or mod_rewrite.
#
# It replaces nodes in the Image: namespace with the files themselves.
require 'rubygems'
require 'node-callback'
require 'time'
require 'ostruct'
# pipe is the stream to receive the git-fast-import commands
# putfrom is true if this branch has existing commits on it, false if not.
def format_git_commit(pipe, f)
# Need to escape backslashes and double-quotes for git?
# No, git breaks when I do this.
# For the filename "path with \\", git sez: bad default revision 'HEAD'
# filename = '"' + filename.gsub('\\', '\\\\\\\\').gsub('"', '\\"') + '"'
# In the calls below, length must be the size in bytes!!
# TODO: I haven't figured out how this works in the land of UTF8 and Ruby 1.9.
pipe.puts "commit #{f.branch}"
pipe.puts "committer #{f.username} <#{f.email}> #{f.timestamp.rfc2822}"
pipe.puts "data #{f.message.length}\n#{f.message}\n"

Mediawiki.pm - A plugin which supports mediawiki format.
#!/usr/bin/perl
# By Scott Bronson. Licensed under the GPLv2+ License.
# Extends Ikiwiki to be able to handle Mediawiki markup.
#
# To use the Mediawiki Plugin:
# - Install Text::MediawikiFormat
# - Turn of prefix_directives in your setup file.
# (TODO: we probably don't need to do this anymore?)
# prefix_directives => 1,
# - Add this plugin on Ikiwiki's path (perl -V, look for @INC)
# cp mediawiki.pm something/IkiWiki/Plugin
# - And enable it in your setup file
# add_plugins => [qw{mediawiki}],
# - Finally, turn off the link plugin in setup (this is important)
# disable_plugins => [qw{link}],
# - Rebuild everything (actually, this should be automatic right?)
# - Now all files with a .mediawiki extension should be rendered properly.
