Popups is out of beta feature and this code is no longer needed. Removing code is the happiest activity a developer can do. Other changes: * Remove redundant type field on extension.json (If not set, the extension will default to the "other" section.) * Repurpose `name` with `namemsg` and make use of existing i18n messages Bug: T193053 Change-Id: Iea832cd1f37b0e7df6ff95efd66e4a1ff2a9004e

# mediawiki/extensions/Popups
|
|
|
|
See https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:Popups for more information about
|
|
what it does.
|
|
|
|
## Development
|
|
|
|
Popups uses an asset bundler so when developing for the extension you'll need
|
|
to run a script to assemble the frontend assets.
|
|
|
|
You can find the frontend source files in `src/`, the compiled sources in
|
|
`resources/dist/`, and other frontend assets managed by resource loader in
|
|
`resources/*`.
|
|
|
|
After an `npm install`:
|
|
|
|
* On one terminal, kickstart the bundler process:
|
|
* `npm start` Will run the bundler in watch mode, re-assembling the files on
|
|
file change.
|
|
* `npm run build` Will compile the assets just once, ready for deployment. You
|
|
*must* run this step before sending the patch or CI will fail (so that
|
|
sources and built assets are in sync).
|
|
* On another terminal, run tests and linting tools:
|
|
* `npm test` To run the linting tools and the tests.
|
|
* You can find the QUnit tests that depend on running MediaWiki under
|
|
`tests/qunit/`
|
|
* You can find the isolated QUnit tests under `tests/node-qunit/`, which you
|
|
can run with `npm run test:node`
|
|
* We recommend you install a file watcher like `nodemon` to watch sources and
|
|
auto run linting and tests.
|
|
* `npm install -g nodemon`
|
|
* Example running linting and node unit tests:
|
|
* `nodemon -w src/ --exec "grunt lint:all && npm run test:node"`
|
|
* Get code coverage report with `npm run coverage`
|
|
* Reports printed in the `coverage/` folder
|
|
|
|
Developers are likely to work with local MediaWiki instances that do not have
|
|
content to test with. To reduce this pain, you can create a single page with
|
|
a list of links that point to an existing and external wiki by using the
|
|
following config flag:
|
|
|
|
$wgPopupsGateway = 'restbaseHTML';
|
|
$wgPopupsRestGatewayEndpoint = 'https://en.wikipedia.org/api/rest_v1/page/summary/';
|
|
|
|
Popups works with a local copy of the [Mobile Content Service] too:
|
|
|
|
$wgPopupsGateway = 'restbaseHTML';
|
|
$wgPopupsRestGatewayEndpoint = 'http://localhost:6927/en.wikipedia.org/v1/page/summary/';
|
|
|
