This tool lets users create Wikidata lexemes with pre-populated forms, such as the declensions of a noun or the conjugations of a verb.
On Wikimedia Toolforge, this tool runs under the lexeme-forms tool name.
Source code resides in ~/www/python/src/,
a virtual environment is set up in ~/www/python/venv/,
logs end up in ~/uwsgi.log.
The uwsgi.ini configuration file in the source code repository
is symlinked into ~/www/python/uwsgi.ini.
If the web service is not running for some reason, run the following command:
webservice start
If it’s acting up, try the same command with restart instead of start.
Both should pull their config from the service.template file,
which is symlinked from the source code directory into the tool home directory.
To update the service, run the following commands after becoming the tool account:
webservice shell
source ~/www/python/venv/bin/activate
cd ~/www/python/src
git fetch
git diff @ @{u} # inspect changes
git merge --ff-only @{u}
pip3 install -r requirements.txt
webservice restart
However, the venv and pip3 parts are only necessary when new packages are required –
if only templates.py and/or translations.py were updated, you can skip those.
You can also run the tool locally, which is much more convenient for development
(for example, Flask will automatically reload the application any time you save a file).
Note that a local setup will not actually perform edits unless you create a config.yaml file.
git clone https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/source/tool-lexeme-forms.git
cd tool-lexeme-forms
pip3 install -r requirements.txt
FLASK_APP=app.py FLASK_ENV=development flask run --extra-files i18n/
If you want, you can do this inside some virtualenv too.
Yay contributions! <3
To propose new templates for the tool, please head to its page on Wikidata and follow the instructions there.
To send a patch, you can use any of the following methods:
- Submit a pull request on GitHub.
- Use
git send-email. (Send the patch(es) to the email address from the Git commit history.) - Upload the changes to a repository of your own and use
git request-pull(same email address). - Upload a diff on GitHub Gist and send the link to the tool’s maintainer(s) via email, Twitter, on-wiki message, or whatever.
- Create a Diff on Phabricator. Make sure to add @LucasWerkmeister as subscriber.
They’re listed in the maintainer(s)’ order of preference, from most to least preferred, but feel free to use any of these methods as it best suits you. It’s best to reach out to the maintainer(s) in advance, though, to see if the contribution is likely to be accepted or not.
