Convert wiki page to HTML

Hi,

Is there an easy way to convert a wiki page to HTML using the Trac Python
files?

What I would like to do is to pull a wiki page down using wget, for example

wget http://.../wiki/Page?format=txt -O Page

and then convert it to HTML, for example

wikitohtml Page Page.html

I suppose I can write the wikitohtml script if I know what parts of the Trac
Python files to use.

Rickard,

I hope I'm not misunderstanding your particular scenario, but can't you just wget the wiki page directly without setting format to txt? It is Trac's job, after all, to convert the wiki to HTML whenever a browser (or wget, for example) requests a page.

You can't really do that, as the HTML needs to render in the context
of the project - if not then links will not be completed, and macros
will not run in context.

I'd suggest you look at http://trac-hacks.org/wiki/XmlRpcPlugin

With recently added JSON-RPC interface this is quite simple:

user: ~ > cat body.json
{"params": ["WikiStart"], "method": "wiki.getPageHTML", "id": 123}
user: ~ > curl -H "Content-Type: application/json" --data @body.json
http://host/project/jsonrpc
{"id": 123, "error": null, "result": "<the page as markup>"}

I wanted to avoid the problem of removing all the extra HTML that I am not
interested in. I would like to render the content part and then add my own HTML
header and footer.

Thanks. I will have a look at that.

I do not need to convert that many pages, so maybe copying the interesting
parts of the HTML manually is the easiest option.
