What is it
The Mediawiki-Japi is just another Mediawiki API for Java.
Mediawiki's have a built in API see the Mediawiki API of this site.
To access such an API via Java a Mediawiki API Java Client library is needed.
See https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/API:Client_code#Java for a list of such clients. Mediawiki-Japi is another one.
Why Mediawiki-Japi?
- Mediawiki-Japi is built around the XML/Json messages that are used to communicate. This interface changes frequently so the structure of the Java-code needs to stay up-to-date. This is achieved by
- generating the Java code from the XML message structure see jaxbgenerator
- testing the Java code against ExampleWikis
