Improved Wikidata Format

A better way of working with the wikidata

Features

• Request items from wikidata
• Work with wikidata using classes
• Upload the changes back to wikidata

Getting Started

npm i --save iwf

You can easily request an item from wikidata and list all the labels.

import {requestItem} from 'iwf';

const item = requestItem('Q42');

console.log(item.labels);

Or create a new item and upload it to wikidata.

import { Item, getToken, upload, Label, Statement, WikibaseItemSnak } from 'iwf';

const item = Item.fromNothing();

item.labels.push(Label.fromString('en', 'new planet '));
item.statements.push(Statement.fromSnak(WikibaseItemSnak.fromID('P31', 'Q634')));

const token = await getToken('your wikidata username', 'your wikidata password');

upload(item, {
    summary: 'test update',
    authToken: token
});
Copy
