Setting the wiki

$bot->set_wiki('de.wikipedia.org', 'w');

Set what wiki to use. $host is the domain name (en.wikipedia.org); $path is the path before api.php (usually 'w'); $protocol is either 'http' or 'https'.

The default settings are 'en.wikipedia.org' with a path of 'w'. You can also pass a hashref using keys with the same names as these parameters. To use the secure server:

$bot->set_wiki(
    protocol    => 'https',
    host        => 'secure.wikimedia.org',
    path        => 'wikipedia/meta/w',
);
