Generate documentation files from my private mediawiki?

I have a private mediawiki installation that I use to write/maintain documentation. Now I need to provide these documentation to another developer, but I can't have him access the wiki, I have to send him the documentation in a file. Is there a way to generate all the information of the wiki, into a file? like a text file or word file?

Solution

  • Their own documentation tells you exactly how you can export to a PDF file:

    http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:Pdf_Export

    http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:PdfBook

    Or you can export the files in a way another developer can upload to their own mediawiki:

    http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:Parameters_to_Special:Export

    Or dump all the files out as HTML that you could zip up and transfer:
