NAME
HTML::WikiConverter::MediaWiki - Convert HTML to MediaWiki markup
SYNOPSIS
use HTML::WikiConverter;
my $wc = new HTML::WikiConverter( dialect => 'MediaWiki' );
print $wc->html2wiki( $html );
DESCRIPTION
This module contains rules for converting HTML into MediaWiki markup. See HTML::WikiConverter for additional usage details.
ATTRIBUTES
In addition to the regular set of attributes recognized by the HTML::WikiConverter constructor, this dialect also accepts the following
attributes:
preserve_bold
Boolean indicating whether bold HTML elements should be preserved as HTML in the wiki output rather than being converted into MediaWiki
markup.
By default, <b> and <strong> elements are converted to wiki markup identically. But sometimes you may wish <b> tags in the HTML to be
preserved in the resulting MediaWiki markup. This attribute allows this.
For example, if "preserve_bold" is enabled, HTML like
<ul>
<li> <b>Bold</b>
<li> <strong>Strong</strong>
</ul>
will be converted to
* <b>Bold</b>
* '''Strong'''
When disabled (the default), the preceding HTML markup would be converted into
* '''Bold'''
* '''Strong'''
preserve_italic
Boolean indicating whether italic HTML elements should be preserved as HTML in the wiki output rather than being converted into MediaWiki
markup.
For example, if "preserve_italic" is enabled, HTML like
<ul>
<li> <i>Italic</i>
<li> <em>Emphasized</em>
</ul>
will be converted to
* <i>Italic</i>
* ''Emphasized''
When disabled (the default), the preceding HTML markup would be converted into
* ''Italic''
* ''Emphasized''
preserve_templates
Boolean indicating whether "{{template}}" calls found in HTML should be preserved in the wiki markup. If disabled (the default), templates
calls will be wrapped in "<nowiki>" tags.
preserve_nowiki
Boolean indicating whether "<nowiki>" tags found in HTML should be preserved in the wiki markup. If disabled (the default), nowiki tags
will be replaced with their content.
pad_headings
Boolean indicating whether section headings should be padded with spaces (eg, "== Section ==" instead of "==Section=="). Default is false
(ie, not to pad).
