w3cpull

w3cpull is a tool for pulling data from IBM w3 Connections.

Description

Since w3 Connections does not allow exporting data and does not have a REST API, it was decided to go from the front side and use Selenium. This tool allows you to download wiki pages and related files from the community and sub-communities. As a result, you get a local copy of the community content (currently only wiki content) with the original structure.

Environment

  • Languages: Python
  • Frameworks: Selenium
  • Interface: CLI
  • Supported OS: Linux, OS X

Installation

Requirements:

  • Python (>=3.6)
  • Browser (Chrome / Firefox)

Linux:

 $ pip install w3cpull

OS X:

 $ curl https://bootstrap.pypa.io/get-pip.py -o get-pip.py
 $ python3 get-pip.py w3cpull
