# WikiMedia recent changes DDP API

WikiMedia wikis (of which Wikipedia is the most known) provide a

[stream of recent changes](https://wikitech.wikimedia.org/wiki/EventStreams). If you want to subscribe to them

in a [Meteor](https://www.meteor.com/) application (or [any other application supporting DDP protocol](http://www.meteorpedia.com/read/DDP_Clients)),

you can instead connect to the [`https://wikimedia.meteorapp.com/`](https://wikimedia.meteorapp.com/) DDP endpoint

and subscribe to the publish endpoint which publishes those recent changes. The advantage is that you can filter to only

those changes you care about using MongoDB selectors, and project only fields you want. Moreover, changes of adding

or editing wiki content are augmented with the information about the change itself, e.g., a diff of the change.

See [`https://wikimedia.meteorapp.com/`](https://wikimedia.meteorapp.com/) for more information and documentation.
