Bug #: 42533
Summary: Creating parser functions to query the API local and
interwiki
Product: MediaWiki
Version: unspecified
Platform: All
OS/Version: All
Status: NEW
Severity: normal
Priority: Unprioritized
Component: API
AssignedTo: [email protected]
ReportedBy: [email protected]

Classification: Unclassified
Mobile Platform: ---
At the moment it is not possible to create easily migratable parser functions,
they all need a copy and paste, and an amendment for the local server. It
would be great if there was able to be added to the magic words and parser
functions that can used and applied to the api. For example
* {{localurl:page name|query_string}} -> {{localurl:MediaWiki|printable=yes}}
→ /w/index.php?title=MediaWiki&printable=yes
Here I am thinking {{localapi}} -> /w/api.php?...
* {{fullurl:interwiki:remote page name|query_string}}
Here I am thinking {{fullapi:+++}} so we can more easily build lists of xwiki
api calls.
My reason is that sometimes there are queries that I want to share to others,
and and having it being local to the server running it without changing
components would be useful. Plus to build a page to run a query on a series of
wikis (eg. show me the count of admins and bureaucrats) and building those with
shortcuts and without parser functionality is a nightmare.
