[FEATURE REQUEST] export to mediawiki

[FEATURE REQUEST] export to mediawiki

[Spike Spiegel]

Hi,

it would be awesome if there was an org to mediawiki export
functionality as I have a lot of  documentation in a mediawiki
instance and I'm routinely wasting 10 to 15 minutes every time I need
to publish a largish document just to reformat the text.

thanks

ps: if anybody has a working mediawiki mode to edit a mediawiki
instance over https protected by apache basic auth please contact me
off list, all those I tried break with the parsing or have problems
with ssl/basic auth.

I would second this suggestion.  In the mean time, exporting to HTML and
postprocessing with HTML::WikiConverter works reasonably well.

I use the attached sed script to "sort of" convert between org-mode and
mediawiki syntax. This works more or less depending on your definition
of "works". However, long term I think the best solution would be a
transformation via the docbook exporter, similar in spirit to the twiki
exporter by Baoqiu Cui (http://docbook2twiki.googlecode.com) which also
uses the docbook exporter.

Thanks
Christian

I too have wanted something like this.  In fact, it is one of the
motivations behind my org-export-generic functionality I posted here a
while ago.  I'm long overdue to post another copy but have been
completely swamped lately and it's preventing me from getting another
copy out.

I'll try to get a copy out this week, as things are finally looking a
bit less swamped.
