A bot to find the shortest path between two links on Wikipedia (Pretty much brute forcing it).
- Initially command line input:
./wikibot -start https://some.wiki.page -end https://some.other.wiki.page - Starts two threads and starts at both ends, searching all links for a connection
- If no connections are found, the first link of each page is used to find connections
- Some sort of map or data store will be used to contain the history of pages and their connections (so that backreference can be performed)
- Will initially run entirely in memory (RIP garbage collection)
