Hotfix and General Polish

This release is a stepping stone to the longer goal of v.1.1.1. See the changelog for specifics:

New stuff:

• Https is properly supported.

Major bug fixes:

• getRecentChanges(), getPagesThatLinkTo(), and getAllPages() no longer have infinite loops.

Minor bug fixes:

• PageLocation and PageTitle ignore capitalization of the first letter.

Tweaks:

• PageLocation and PageTitle both have custom hash functions so as to work better with hashMap, etc
• doesPageExist() now checks for invalid page locations too.

Hotfix

Hello, it came to my attention that there were a few bugs in JMB. Specifically:

Major bug fixes:

• doesPageExist() now works properly.

Minor bug fixes:

• NetworkingBase now ignores BOM characters in streams.

Update

Hello! A semi major update has arrived with some goodies and some interface changes.

New stuff:

• ProtectPage allows for the protection of any page, assuming you know the protection levels on your wiki!
• GenericBot now supports uploading local files to a wiki.
• JMB is now jar friendly! When creating a bot, just make sure to give it a File pointing to a family file.
• Login now works on Mediawiki 1.27+.

Major Bug Fixes:

• APIcommand AppendText is fixed.

Tweaks:

• Wiki family files now use proper JSON.
• User, PageLocation, SimplePage, and Page have had their constructor signatures changed.
• Creating a GUI bot is now handled differently. See the README.
• All APIcommands now have a comment specifying if they are okay used raw.
• Page has a new method, getHeaderText().
• GenericBot has a new method, setLogPropagation(), which controls logging propagation to the command line.

Internal:

• The default GenericBot instance uses family "Wikipedia".
• All hacked XML parsing is now modernized to use JSON + Jackson.
• APIcommands now have control at the HttpEntity level.
• GenericBot's logIn method has been refactored to use the APIcommand() method.
• APIcommand's escapeText field has been removed. It was a hack to help with the lack of proper JSON parsing.

Update

I feel like pushing a release now, even if it doesn't have too much.

New stuff:

• You can now query site statistics! Just use getSiteStatistics()
• UserInfo has been expanded to be more user friendly.

Update

Another release has arrived! It comes with some goodies, some of which I just realized are really nice.

New stuff:

• You can now query user contributions! To do so, use getUserContribs().
• Page parsing has become more accurate.
• Improved comments in general.
• Added two new simple methods for querying user info.

Tweaks:

• All bot methods now respect APIlimit.
• Searching for PageObjectAdvanced via header will now compare trimmed headers.
• Refactored some method signatures.
• Refactored User so that it is now initialized this way: new User(userName, language)

Internal:

• Made it so that getting a nonexistent Wiki page gives a more descriptive error message.
• Added a GenericBot method for escaping text.

Update

Hello again! I have decided to release a minor project polish. It does not contain anything drastic, but should still be nice to have.

New stuff:

• You can now query certain namespaces for pages with a prefix.

Major bug fixes:

• Fixed a null error with mw version checking.
• Fixed the infinite network error loop. ( #23 )

Tweaks:

• Comments for APIcommands are more organized.
• Made QueryPrefix properly escape server output. ( #22 )
• Added a interruptedConnectionWait setting to GenericBot. This is how much time GenericBot should wait before retrying a query.
• Changed password handling. Previously in the GUI, incorrect passwords were stored for future usage. Now, the GUI asks for the password whenever the password is used.

Hotfix

This release is a hotfix for bugs that I never knew existed.

Major bug fixes: (#30)

• Logging messages sometimes lead to IllegalArgumentExceptions.
• Messages are being spammed in the console.
• Log-in is failing.

Internal

• The only thing not bug related. Log-in status updates in real-time while the bot is logging in.

Update

A new update has arrived with lots of polish, and some new features. This version should be compatible with previous releases, huzzah!

New stuff:

• You can now query user information. The APIcommand is: QueryUserInfo
• All APIcommands are updated to accurately reflect MW requirements. They also have class comments for documentation purposes.

Major bug fixes:

• You can now properly query image metadata. Just remember, all metadata info is stored as JSON.

Tweaks:

• Removed four ways to instantiate APIcommand.

Internal:

• A lot of general utility methods (and one class) were moved to WikiBot/Util.
• Querying image info now uses the Jackson JSON library. (So does querying user info.)
• Besides what's in WikiBot/Util, the new classes are: ContentRep/InfoContainer, ContentRep/UserInfo, and ContentRep/User.

Update

There is not much symbolic with this release. I am simply starting to tag commits for documentation purposes.

Here is the changelog for the recent commits:

New stuff:

• You can now move a page or rollback a page. The APIcommands are: MovePage and Rollback
• Wiki families now include MW versions. This allows JMB to act differently depending on the MW version. This also makes JMB compatible with MW v1.8+, instead of the previous MW v1.20+.
• A CUI was added for easy wiki family creation.
• Added the Wikipedia wiki family. Let me tell you, it is huge.

Major bug fixes:

• The APIcommand DeletePage now works properly.

Tweaks:

• Moved the editSummary parameter from the GUI methods proposeEdit&proposeCommand to the various APIcommand classes.
• Made it easier to run JMB from the command line.
• Updated README.md.

Internal:

• Renamed many variables and methods for accuracy.
• Made MediawikiDataManager a singleton. Begone pesky static!
• Moved some methods from GenericBot to NetworkingBase.
