Re: [Wikitech-l] The mw.ext construct in lua modules

2019-02-02 Thread Eran Rosenthal 
I agree with John, and I think mw.ext.EXTNAME should be avoided and we
should prefer mw.EXTNAME which is clear and simple and fills very native.
This is already the way it is used in wikibase (mw.wikibase.FUNCNAME) which
I believe is the most heavily used extension exposing Lua interface.

To conclude:
1. We should either accept this convention (dropping the "ext") and update
https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:Scribunto/Example_extension
2. or we should reject this proposal and open phab ticket to wikibase to
change mw.wikibase to mw.ext.wikibase everywhere (probably keeping the
first for backward compatibility)

Thanks,
Eran
