Zusammenfassung
In this paper, we present WikiExporter, a tool which automatically creates a MediaWiki site for a given corpus of texts. The texts, along with automatically generated annotations and visualisations associated with them, are displayed on this MediaWiki site, locally hosted on the users’ own machine. Several different software components are used to this end - Docker for ease and consistency of deployment, MediaWiki for the core engine, TextImager Client for the generation of annotations and a number of existing, and as well as extended, MediaWiki extensions for the visualisations. This tool was specifically designed for use within the interdisciplinary field of the Digital Humanities, as it provides a visual analysis and representation of texts via a tool which require no programming or advanced computational knowledge and uses an interface already well-known within the Digital Humanities Community, namely MediaWiki.
