This is an overview about how to reuse functions of Wikifunctions.

Downloading the Dump

You can find the dump of Wikifunctions at dumps.wikimedia.org. Download the file with the name wikifunctionswiki-latest-pages-meta-current.xml.bz2. After downloading using a decompression program to unpack the file.

Analyzing the Dump content

At the dump you can see the different pages. The namespace number for Z-Objects is 0. To parse the dump it is important to understand the JSON-Structure and the XML-Structure. Some information about the Function model is at this page. While trying to parse the dump I found unescape: lookup from JSON list, python (Z11427). This is a very huge function.

Parser for the dump

There is a implementation of a parser written in COBOL. You can use these parser to analyze the dump.
