Publish to MediaWiki

A stylesheet to make MATLAB publishing produce MediaWiki markup as an output.

Description

This stylesheet converts from publishing's intermediate XML format to MediaWiki-compatible markup. The output is ready for cut-and-paste into Wikipedia or other sites running the MediaWiki software.

This implementation isn't 100% complete.

Sample usage:

>> opts = [];
>> opts.format = 'xml';
>> opts.stylesheet = 'C:\Work\mediawiki.xsl';
>> tdir = tempname;
>> opts.outputDir = tdir;
>> f = publish('sparsity',opts);
>> disp(tdir)
>> dir(tdir)
>> edit(f)

You can also set these options in a publish configurations to make it available directly from the Editor.

works very well; BUT there's a small type in the sample usage:
mediawiki.xsl
should read
mediawiki.xml
just a thought

urs, I'm not sure where you mean. I think it should be mediawiki.xsl everywhere.

this works pretty great for me, but i get things like:

<source lang="matlab"> load('west0479.mat') A = west0479; S = A * A' + speye(size(A)); pct = 100 / prod(size(A));
clf; spy(S), title('A Sparse Symmetric Matrix') nz = nnz(S); xlabel(sprintf('nonzeros=%d (%.3f%%)',nz,nz*pct)); </source>

is it possible that i set something up incorrectly?

matthew, correct...
however, your file's extension is XML...

joshua, is it the "<source>" that you're asking about? That's markup for the syntax highlighting extension. It's installed on Wikipedia and most other installations. http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:SyntaxHighlight_GeSHi

us, I checked again and the file is xsl on the File Exchange. it's possible your browser or OS is renaming the file when you download it.
