Install Wikibase Reconcile API

Problem to solve

The crawler for LOSH relies on a new, enhanced Wikibase API. It won't work with the original one. Hence, as part of the job from TU Berlin, we'll need to host the API in order to make our system work.

Intended users

Crawler connects via this API to Wikibase and uploads its data. Of course, this can be done by any entitled entity then, not only the crawler, but for now, the crawler will be the only entity using this API.

To upload designs, you'll need to enable LFS and have an admin enable hashed storage. More information
