Wikibase (wikiba.se) is a system for storing and querying structured data that powers Wikidata and other wikis.

Wikibase consists of two extensions:

  1. Wikibase Repository that allows a wiki to work as a repository for structured data.
  2. Wikibase Client that allows a wiki to access structured data from a repository. The client can work only with repository databases it can access so they must be on the same machine or the same load balancer.

Installation

Wikibase installation instructions at Mediawiki.org and advanced configuration of Wikibase.

The installation instructions assume you are installing the dependencies with Composer, a PHP package manager that makes the installation of dependencies easy.
