A set of scripts to cache Wikipedia Hashtag.

This script connects to the Wikipedia database replica on Wikimedia Tool Labs, searches for hashtags, and then stores it in another database with nice indexes for searching. See hashtag search. On Tool Labs, the database is kept up-to-date on 10-20 minute interval scheduled via crontab.
