Do not set Bot._site to None if we already have a site object
Closed, ResolvedPublic

Description

replace.ReplaceRobot always needs a site argument. This is due to the ReplaceRobot's constructor in replace.py is called positional and not as keywords argument. This leads to template.TemplateRobot resets bot.site to None when the constructor calls the ReplaceRobot.init.

Samples:

>>> import pwb, pywikibot as py
>>> site = py.Site()
>>> from scripts.template import TemplateRobot
>>> bot = TemplateRobot(iter([]), {}, **{})  # call the bot without site argument
WARNING: Bot.site was not set before being retrieved.
WARNING: Using the default site: wikipedia:de
# the bot._site has been set
>>> bot.site
WARNING: Bot.site was not set before being retrieved.
WARNING: Using the default site: wikipedia:de
# but it was lost immediately

try it with site argument:

>>> del bot
>>> bot = TemplateRobot(iter([]), {}, site=site, **{})
# looks good here
>>> bot.site
WARNING: Bot.site was not set before being retrieved.
WARNING: Using the default site: wikipedia:de
# but it fails again

The same issue seems to appear with image.py. Command line:

python pwb.py scripts/image.py 'FireHouse 02.jpg' -lang:it -family:wikipedia -summary:"Cancellazione di massa di file sospetti"

Seems your bot is outdated. This Userwarning is no longer in api.py. The bot works for me:

C:\pwb\GIT\core>pwb.py image Kellerskreuz.jpg -simulate -lang:de -family:wikipedia
family and mylang are not set.
Defaulting to family='test' and mylang='test'.
