Change Details

Pywikibot is a Python-based framework to write bots for MediaWiki ([more information](https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:Pywikibot)). Thanks to work in Google Code-in, Pywikibot now has a script called `download_dump.py`. It downloads a Wikimedia database dump from http://dumps.wikimedia.org/, and places the dump in a predictable directory for semi-automated use by other scripts and tests. This script downloads big files, a progress bar or another indicator can be really useful. Avoid using external libraries. Reference: https://stackoverflow.com/a/15645088/2603230 and https://stackoverflow.com/q/3160699/2603230. It would be even better if something like `105.2M/2.1G` can be shown alongside the progress bar. (Not required) You are expected to provide a patch in Wikimedia Gerrit. See https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Gerrit/Tutorial for how to set up Git and Gerrit.
