I've got it set to update by itself daily now from the URL given... So you should only need to email the list if something goes wrong and prevents updates. Best regards,
Rudi
P.S. Thanks to AnnaLissa for this:
#!/usr/local/bin/ruby
require 'fileutils'
scriptdir = File.dirname(__FILE__) + "/../htdoc/wiki"
filename = scriptdir + "/LocalSettings.php"
newname = scriptdir + "/LocalSettings.php.new"
backup = scriptdir + "/LocalSettings.php.bak"
regexfile = "/tmp/wgSpamRegex.txt"
# grab John's file and save in tmp location
system("wget http://www.myseattle.com/mediawiki/wgSpamRegex.txt -O #{regexfile}"
)
regexp = ''
File.readlines(regexfile).each do |line|
regexp = $1 if line =~ /^\$wgSpamRegex\s=\s(.*)/
end
raise "Can't find valid wgSpamRegex" unless regexp.length > 0
# read in text of original LocalSettings.php
src = File.readlines(filename)
# write to a temporary filename
File.open(newname,"w") { |f| f.write(src) }
# move temporary file name to backup filename
File.rename(newname, backup)
File.open(filename,"w") do |f|
src.each do |line|
if line =~ /^\$wgSpamRegex\s=\s(.*)/
line.gsub!(/\s=\s.*/, " = #{regexp}")
end
f.write(line)
end
end
