Multi-Content Revisions/Dumps

From mediawiki.org
This page is part of the MCR documentation

The XML dump format has changed to accommodate multiple slots per revision (XML schema version 0.11).

  • Some information that used to be associated with the revision is now also associated with each slot.
  • We tried to avoid breaking changes.
  • For import, MediaWiki should support the old as well as the new format.
<mediawiki>
  <page>
    <revision>
      <!-- existing id/timestamp/etc for revision data -->
      ...
      <!-- existing fields for main slot -->

      <model>wikitext</model>
      <format>text/x-wiki</format>
      <text bytes="1234" sha1="...">....</text>
      <sha1>...</sha1> <!-- revision sha1, may be different from text sha1 -->

      <!-- additional slots -->
      <content>
        <slot>filemetadata</slot>
        <model>metadata</model>
        <format>text/json</format>
        <text bytes="123" sha1="...">...</text>
      </content>
    </revision>
   </page>
</mediawiki>
