Hi,
The SelectQueryBuilder class was introduced a year ago
<https://lists.wikimedia.org/hyperkitty/list/[email protected]/thread/455RLQ5M6HT5AM5HXBCWJGDM2ELHSV57/#455RLQ5M6HT5AM5HXBCWJGDM2ELHSV57>
and it's seen some adoption, mostly in core. I've also noticed that
there are two classes that extend it in core, the PageSelectQueryBuilder
and UserSelectQueryBuilder. I really like how this approach allows for
better separation of DB code from the rest, which has always been a
complete and utter mess in MW. I would like to do something similar in
an extension, but the base class is currently not explicitly marked as
stable to extend and thus, according to the stable interface policy
<https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Stable_interface_policy#Stable_to_extend>,
the interface could be broken at any time. My question is – are there
any plans to make the class stable to extend? Is there a rough roadmap
for its development? If the class is unstable to extend for some reason
– what are the expected changes to come?
Thanks!
