<p>
This page details the recommended environment for running XOWA.
</p>
<h2>
<span class="mw-headline" id="Machine">Machine</span>
</h2>
<p>
For building wikis, XOWA works best on a recent-generation machine. For building English Wikipedia, XOWA works best with high-performance hardware.
</p>
<p>
As a data point, here is my current machine setup:
</p>
<ul>
<li>
Processor: Intel Core i7-4770K; 3.5 GHz with 8 MB L3 cache
</li>
<li>
Memory: 16 GB DDR3 SDRAM DDR3 1600 (PC3 12800)
</li>
<li>
Hard Drive: 1 TB SSD SATA III
</li>
<li>
Internet bandwidth: 28.0 Mbps
</li>
<li>
Operating System: openSUSE 13.2
</li>
</ul>
<p>
(Note: The hardware was assembled in late 2013 for about $1,600 US dollars.)
</p>
<p>
For English Wikipedia, it takes about:
</p>
<ol>
<li>
4 hours to download the dumps
</li>
<li>
2 hours to build the wiki
</li>
<li>
70 hours to parse 11+ million pages in the wikis and
<ol>
<li>
identify required images
</li>
<li>
generate the HTML dumps
</li>
</ol>
</li>
<li>
2 hours for post-processing steps
</li>
</ol>
<p>
Note that most users will only need to do steps 1 and 2. Steps 3 and 4 are only for those who want to generate HTML dumps / image updates on their own.

If you find a defect with XOWA, please report it as detailed in <a href="/xowa/wiki/home/page/Help/Feedback.html" id="xolnki_2" title="Help/Feedback" class="xowa-visited">Help/Feedback</a>. Please include the following in your report:
</p>
<ul>
<li>
operating system (EX: windows xp, windows 7, linux, mac os x)
</li>
<li>
affected wiki (EX: en.wikipedia.org)
</li>
<li>
affected page (EX: Earth)
</li>
<li>
brief description of defect
<ul>
<li>
If it is related to incorrect wiki article text, please be as specific as possible. (EX: Earth shows &lt;timeline&gt; instead of the actual graphic timeline)
</li>
<li>
If it is an application defect, please include all the reproduction steps. (EX: I press Fwd 32 times and the application crashes (this doesn't actually happen))

<span class="mw-headline" id="Languages">Languages</span>
</h2>
<p>
If you are multilingual, you can review a wiki in your native language for errors. Aside from English, my only other language competency is French, but that knowledge is several years old. Multilanguage testing has been sparse. The non-English language wikis were confirmed by eyeballing general form and structure, but actual content could not be confirmed.

XOWA currently uploads all files to archive.org. More help can always be provided in the following ways:

<li>
Torrents / seeders for English Wikipedia images

Online storage space availability

<h2>
<span class="mw-headline" id="I.27ve_found_a_bug._How_do_I_report_it.3F">I've found a bug. How do I report it?</span>
</h2>
<p>
Report it through Github, Wikipedia or by email! See <a href="/xowa/wiki/home/page/Help/Feedback.html" id="xolnki_2" title="Help/Feedback" class="xowa-visited">Help/Feedback</a>
</p>
<h2>
<span class="mw-headline" id="How_do_you_pronounce_XOWA.3F">How do you pronounce XOWA?</span>
</h2>
<p>
The preferred pronunciation is "X' - O - WA". In <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IPA" rel="nofollow" class="external text">IPA</a>, it would be <code>ɛksˈ ō wə</code>.
</p>
<p>
An accepted pronunciation is "ZO' - WA". In IPA, it would be <code>zō wə</code>.
</p>
<h2>
<span class="mw-headline" id="Why_are_language_links_to_other_wikis_not_listed.3F">Why are language links to other wikis not listed?</span>
</h2>
<p>
Short answer: Set up the Wikidata wiki (www.wikidata.org). See <a href="/xowa/wiki/home/page/Dashboard/Import/Online.html" id="xolnki_3" title="Dashboard/Import/Online" class="xowa-visited">Dashboard/Import/Online</a>. After you install the Wikidata wiki, language links to other wikis will be listed at the bottom of the article.
</p>
<p>
Long answer: See <a href="/xowa/wiki/home/page/App/Wiki_types/Wikidata.html" id="xolnki_4" title="App/Wiki types/Wikidata">App/Wiki_types/Wikidata</a>
</p>
<h2>
<span class="mw-headline" id="Why_do_some_pages_have_sections_that_overlap_each_other.3F">Why do some pages have sections that overlap each other?</span>
</h2>
<p>
Short answer: Images are necessary for some pages to show correctly. (for example, en.wiktionary.org/wiki/Main_Page).
</p>
<p>
Long answer: Some pages have divs that auto-size to their image. If the images are not downloaded, then the divs auto-size around nothing, causing a "collapsed" look. Unfortunately, since there is no image size info in the wikitext, there is little XOWA can do to "force" the div to the correct size.
</p>
<h2>
<span class="mw-headline" id="How_do_I_print_a_page.3F">How do I print a page?</span>
</h2>
<p>
From the Main Menu, choose File -&gt; Print!
</p>
<h2>
<span class="mw-headline" id="Why_does_.3Crss.3E_show_up.3F">Why does &lt;rss&gt; show up?</span>
</h2>
<p>
The &lt;rss&gt; tag is used on some wikis. For example, <a href="http://wikimediafoundation.org/wiki/Main_Page" rel="nofollow" class="external free">http://wikimediafoundation.org/wiki/Main_Page</a> uses it in their "Recent Wikimedia blog posts"
</p>
<p>
XOWA doesn't implement the rss tag, because RSS feeds are not available offline. Note the tag is not hidden, because it could be more confusing to see empty space, rather than the literal rss tag.
</p>
<h2>
<span class="mw-headline" id="Why_do_some_characters_show_up_as_boxes.3F">Why do some characters show up as boxes?</span>
</h2>
<p>
Certain articles will have non-English characters that will only be displayed correctly if the proper font is installed
</p>
<ul>
<li>
<b>Arabic</b>: Italicized text may show up as boxes. Install the fonts at /xowa/bin/any/font/arabic/amiri or at <a href="http://www.amirifont.org/" rel="nofollow" class="external free">http://www.amirifont.org/</a>

<h2>
<span class="mw-headline" id="Overview">Overview</span>
</h2>
<p>
As of v3.3.3.1, XOWA has a new search engine. This uses the same search functionality that is in XOWA Android.
</p>
<p>
Unfortunately, this search engine is not backward compatible with old wikis. To use it, you must do one of the following:
</p>
<ul>
<li>
Import a new wiki with v3.3.3.1. The new search-databases are built automatically.
</li>
<li>
Upgrade an existing wiki with v3.3.3.1. You can upgrade with the following process
<ul>
<li>
Go to <a href="/xowa/wiki/home/page/Dashboard/Wiki_maintenance.html" id="xolnki_2" title="Dashboard/Wiki maintenance" class="xowa-visited">Dashboard/Wiki_maintenance</a>
</li>
<li>
Find your wiki in the list
</li>
<li>
Click the <code>Search</code> button in the same row
</li>
<li>
Click <code>Run Script</code>
</li>
</ul>
</li>
</ul>
<p>
<br>
</p>
<h2>
<span class="mw-headline" id="Process">Process</span>
</h2>
<p>
XOWA will generate a search index during the wiki import process. The following steps occur:
</p>
<ul>
<li>
XOWA reads every page title and breaks it up into words
</li>
<li>
XOWA stores this data in an <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inverted_index" rel="nofollow" class="external text">inverted index</a>. From a database standpoint, they are placed in two database tables called search_word and search_link.
</li>
<li>
XOWA then downloads a list of pagelinks from Wikimedia's dump servers. For example, for 2016-03 English Wikipeda, the link is <a href="http://dumps.wikimedia.org/enwiki/20160305/enwiki-20160305-pagelinks.sql.gz" rel="nofollow" class="external free">http://dumps.wikimedia.org/enwiki/20160305/enwiki-20160305-pagelinks.sql.gz</a>
</li>
<li>
XOWA then parses this data and calculates <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PageRank" rel="nofollow" class="external text">PageRank</a> based on which page links to which page
</li>
<li>
XOWA then applies a series of calculations to come up with a page score for each page. For more info, see <a href="/xowa/wiki/home/page/Help/Features/Search/Score.html" id="xolnki_3" title="Help/Features/Search/Score" class="xowa-visited">Help/Features/Search/Score</a>
</li>
</ul>
<p>
<br>
</p>
<h2>
<span class="mw-headline" id="Build_process">Build process</span>
</h2>
<p>
Due to the nature of the PageRank algorithm, a lot of additional time and disk-space is needed. These requirements are especially dramatic for English Wikipedia:
</p>
<ul>
<li>
<b>125+ GB hard disk space needed</b>: The pagelinks dump is compressed at 4.7 GB (.gz), expands to 40 GB (.sql) and will require a scratch space of 80 GB (.sqlite3).
</li>
<li>
<b>8+ hours of processing time needed</b>: The PageRank algorithm is computationally expensive on three fronts:
<ul>
<li>
English Wikipedia has 16.3 million pages
</li>
<li>
Each page links to each other through over 1 billion links
</li>
<li>
PageRank needs approximately 20 iterations to completely rank all pages.
</li>
</ul>
</li>
</ul>
<dl>
<dd>
<dl>
<dd>
Note, on a <a href="/xowa/wiki/home/page/Help/Admin/Environment/Machine.html" id="xolnki_4" title="Help/Admin/Environment/Machine">machine with a fast processor and an SSD</a> this process will <b>only</b> take about 2 hours.
</dd>
</dl>
</dd>
</dl>
<p>
With this in mind, XOWA offers the following options:
</p>
<h3>
<span class="mw-headline" id="Download_the_XOWA_search_databases_from_archive.org">Download the XOWA search databases from archive.org</span>
</h3>
<p>
Monthly versions of English Wikipedia's search databases will be posted to <a href="https://archive.org/edit/Xowa_enwiki_latest" rel="nofollow" class="external free">https://archive.org/edit/Xowa_enwiki_latest</a> . You can just download a 2 GB dump of these databases and replace your copies.
</p>
<h3>
<span class="mw-headline" id="Use_page-length_instead_of_PageRank">Use page-length instead of PageRank</span>
</h3>
<p>
XOWA can use page-length and skip the pagelinks download (125+ GB) as well as the PageRank running time (8+ hours). However the generated results will not be as accurate as PageRank. Specifically, long pages like "List of ...." will have a high page score.
</p>
<p>
To use this option, do the following:
</p>
<ul>
<li>
Go to <a href="/xowa/wiki/home/page/Options/Import.html" id="xolnki_5" title="Options/Import" class="xowa-visited">Options/Import</a>
</li>
<li>
Change "PageRank iteration count" to 0
</li>
<li>
Save the page
</li>
<li>
Import the wiki.
</li>
</ul>
<p>
Note that 0 is the default value for this option.
</p>
<h3>
<span class="mw-headline" id="Use_PageRank_but_limit_to_1_iteration">Use PageRank but limit to 1 iteration</span>
</h3>
<p>
This option will still require a lot of disk space, but will limit the running time to a few hours. To use this option, do the same as above, but change "PageRank iteration count" to 1.
</p>
<h3>
<span class="mw-headline" id="Use_PageRank_but_limit_to_1000_iteration">Use PageRank but limit to 1000 iteration</span>
</h3>
<p>
This option will create the full version of PageRank search indexes. To use this option, do the same as above, but change "PageRank iteration count" to 1000.
</p>
<p>
<br>
</p>
<h2>
<span class="mw-headline" id="Other_notes">Other notes</span>
</h2>
<ul>
<li>
<b>Test with Simple Wikipedia</b>: The full PageRank process only takes about 20 minutes and requires no more than another 1 GB.
</li>
<li>
<b>Recreate through <a href="/xowa/wiki/home/page/Dashboard/Wiki_maintenance.html" id="xolnki_6" title="Dashboard/Wiki maintenance" class="xowa-visited">Dashboard/Wiki_maintenance</a></b>: A search index is built when a wiki is first created.

<p>
XOWA is an application for reading and editing wikis offline. It aims to provide full offline access to all content in every Wikimedia Foundation wiki.
</p>
<h2>

</p>
<ul>
<li>

</li>
<li>

</li>
<li>
Renders articles with full HTML formatting.
</li>
<li>
Downloads images and other files on demand.
</li>
<li>
Edits articles.
</li>
<li>
Runs on Windows, Linux and Mac OS X.
</li>
<li>
Installs to a flash memory card for portability to other machines.
</li>
<li>

</li>
<li>
Is open-source under the AGPLv3 license.
</li>
</ul>
<h2>

XOWA currently releases a minor version every week, and a major version every month. The minor versions are for new changes while the major versions are generally for fixes.
</p>
<p>
Both versions should be considered stable. Note that XOWA has over 4,000 automated unit tests, and more are added in each release. However, for those who prefer a more conservative update, the monthly major version may be more suitable. Additional caution is taken to minimize the number of changes in the monthly version.
</p>
<p>
The minor version is released every Monday morning between 3 AM and 8 AM UTC.
</p>
<p>
The major version is released the first Monday morning of every month between 3 AM and 8 AM UTC.

<p>
The following is an approximate roadmap of XOWA development for the coming year.
</p>
<ul>
<li>
<del>The initial release of XOWA will likely have many defects. The first few weeks will be spent resolving as many as possible</del>
</li>
</ul>
<dl>
<dd>
Bug fixing is still an ongoing process, but the initial major bugs have been identified and resolved (Linux 64 bit; Internationalization; Non-English wikis; GUI embellishments; Options pages).
</dd>
</dl>
<ul>
<li>
<del>Scribunto will probably be released in early 2013. Once pages start incorporating the new Lua syntax, XOWA will try to emulate the same behavior</del>
</li>
</ul>
<dl>
<dd>
Scribunto support is available as of v0.5.1
</dd>
</dl>
<ul>
<li>
Other extensions will be added as time permits, starting with <del>DynamicPageList</del>, <del>Timeline</del> and <del>Hiero</del>.
</li>
</ul>
<dl>
<dd>
Timeline is available as of v0.4.0 (with immense thanks to Schnark)
</dd>
<dd>

</dl>
<ul>
<li>
<del>More internationalization support will be provided as I get feedback from users.</del>
</li>
</ul>
<dl>
<dd>
This is a passive item. Internationalization issues will be addressed as they are reported, but it is not a roadmap item.
</dd>
</dl>
<ul>
<li>
<del>Sqlite support</del>
</li>
</ul>
<dl>
<dd>
A sqlite backend was completely enabled as of v0.7.0
</dd>
</dl>
<ul>
<li>
If online resources are available, offline thumbnail support may be generated.
</li>
</ul>
<dl>
<dd>
<del>Offline thumbnail support will be a major item that will span multiple months: from v0.8.0 - v0.10.0.</del>
</dd>
<dd>
Offline image databases have been generated since 2013-11-22 and are available for all wikis &gt; 200,000 articles. See <a href="http://xowa.sourceforge.net/image_dbs.html" rel="nofollow" class="external free">http://xowa.sourceforge.net/image_dbs.html</a>
</dd>
</dl>
<ul>
<li>
<del>Multiple tab support</del>
</li>
</ul>
<dl>
<dd>
<del>This is scheduled for v1.6.1.</del>
</dd>
<dd>
Tabs are available as of v1.5.1
</dd>
</dl>
<ul>
<li>
Full text search
</li>
</ul>
<dl>
<dd>
This is scheduled for v1.10.1.
</dd>
</dl>
<ul>
<li>
<del>Performance enhancements will be implemented to allow XOWA to run on lower-spec machines</del>
</li>
</ul>
<dl>
<dd>
This is an ongoing process, but as of v1.4.3.1, Luaj allows Scribunto to be run on lower-spec machines.
</dd>
</dl>
<ul>
<li>
Android version will be released.
</li>
</ul>
<dl>
<dd>
This is scheduled for v2.1.0, but much depends on progress in other areas

<h2>
<span class="mw-headline" id="Java">Java</span>
</h2>
<p>
Java vulnerabilities (and the resulting patches) are often in the news. However, most of these vulnerabilities affect machines with the Java browser plugin. <b>A machine can have Java installed and be largely unaffected by these vulnerabilities -- so long as the Java browser plugin is disabled</b>. If you want to check that the Java browser plugin is disabled, you can review the instructions at this link: <a href="http://www.java.com/en/download/help/disable_browser.xml" rel="nofollow" class="external free">http://www.java.com/en/download/help/disable_browser.xml</a>
</p>
<p>
For Firefox, these are the steps I used to verify that the Java browser plugin is disabled.
</p>
<ul>
<li>
From the Menu Bar, do "Tools" -&gt; "Add-ons"
</li>
<li>
The next page will list "Add-ons". For my machine, "Java(TM) Platform SE 6 U32 6.0.320.5" was listed. It was marked "(disabled)"
</li>
</ul>
<dl>
<dd>
Note that recent builds of Firefox will disable the Java browser plugin by default.
</dd>
</dl>
<p>
Finally, although XOWA uses Java and is a browser-based app, it does not use the Java browser plugin in any manner.
</p>
<h2>
<span class="mw-headline" id="Javascript">Javascript</span>
</h2>
<p>
XOWA uses Javascript throughout the app for MathJax, sortable tables, reference tool-tips, and many other functions. Javascript is a versatile language for working with web pages, but that same versatility also makes it a vector for attack. There is always a possibility that malicious Javascript could be added to a wiki page, and that this malicious Javascript could make its way to your machine.
</p>
<p>
XOWA tries to control this situation in the following ways:
</p>
<ul>
<li>
XOWA uses the same whitelisting approach that MediaWiki uses to block Javascript from being executed on wiki pages.
</li>
<li>
XOWA filters out javascript again just before rendering pages
</li>
<li>
XOWA has a flag to disable javascript entirely. Note that this will reduce much of the functionality of XOWA. It can still be used to read wiki pages, but the functions listed above will not work.
</li>
</ul>
<p>
In order to disable Javascript, you can uncheck the Javascript option at <a href="/xowa/wiki/home/page/Options/Security.html" id="xolnki_2" title="Options/Security" class="xowa-visited">Options/Security</a>
