🚀 Quick Start

💻 Usage Examples

Basic Usage

1. Ensure that uv is installed on your device.
2. Configure in the client:

The server uses https://en.wikipedia.org/ by default. You can also make the server search other wiki sites!

To check if a wiki site is compatible with this server, see if it uses MediaWiki software (usually an icon is displayed at the bottom of the page).

To further confirm and find the endpoint (usually the website domain, such as https://mediawiki.org/), visit base-url/rest.php/v1/page in your browser (e.g., https://noita.wiki.gg/rest.php/v1/page) and check if the output is correct. If not, add '/w' after the base URL and try again.

Then set this endpoint as --base-url.
