WikiEduDashboardTools

A set of PHP endpoints for pulling revision and article data from the Replica databases in the Wikimedia Cloud environment

Setup on Toolforge

  • Clone the git repo in the tool's home directory
  • webservice start

Setup on Wikimedia Cloud VM

  • Create a Debian server with the web security group
  • Add DNS for an external URL (like dashboard-replica-endpoint.wmcloud.org)
  • sudo apt install apache2 php libapache2-mod-php php-mysql
  • Clone the git repo into /var/www/
  • Disable the default site and add a new one (dashboard-too.conf)
<VirtualHost *:80>
    ServerName dashboard-replica-endpoint.wmcloud.org
    ServerAdmin [email protected]   
    DocumentRoot /var/www/WikiEduDashboardTools/public_html
    ErrorLog ${APACHE_LOG_DIR}/error.log
    CustomLog ${APACHE_LOG_DIR}/access.log combined
</VirtualHost>
  • Increase the PHP memory_limit in /etc/php/7.4/apache2/php.ini or similar location (to 4096M)
    • This ensures that queries that return very large amounts of data won't run PHP out of memory while converting query results to JSON.
  • Enable the new site, and visit /index.php.
  • Add Replica database credentials: copy replica.my.cnf from a Toolforge tool account into the tool's root directory.
  • Test a query endpoint, like /revisions.php?lang=en&project=wikipedia&usernames[]=Ragesoss&start=20140101003430&end=20171231003430
