Hitchwiki talk:Database dumps

I'm working on a daily mirror of the dumps. Since they're already quite big it'd be cool to bzip2 the dumps. guaka 22:29, 13 February 2009 (UTC)

I'm playing with Aarddict now. Hope to have usable .aars this week. guaka 00:33, 26 October 2009 (UTC)

Brackers 11:37, 22 June 2014:: Hello, I am interested in having hitchwiki offline on my android device. Would it be possible to include a column on the Database dumps for a downloadable .aar file alongside the .xml content file as per These instructions? I am not a linux man and so do not feel confident in deciphering what it is asking in order to get the .aar file so as to be compatible with the Aard dictionary app. Any help or advise you guys may have is much appreciated.

WikiReader
Hello,

Im working on having Hitchwiki content in the WikiReader, and as a part of the import process from the xml dumps to the device, looks like extra xml files are needed, as seen in the instructions found here:

As stated in the instructions, the missing XML files are the ones with the licenses for the content, but I cant find them within the database dumps of this wiki. Im not sure they are completely necessary, but since im struggling with the process and it is not displaying on the device, I thought maybe I could give it a try and ask here for such files if they exist.

Also, I was wondering if the GFDL dumps are the only ones containing the entries posted before 1st july 2009 or if they can be found within the new dumps but with CC licensing.

Thanks!

 * At http://hitchwiki.org/dumps/ you can also fetch full-XX.xml - which should contain all article history. (It would probably make sense to gzip this stuff.) Let us know if you manage to get Hitchwiki in WikiReader! guaka 11:07, 1 June 2012 (CEST)
