[00:20:59] I'd like to wrap the monobook around my forums [00:21:27] kassah_, found your latter bug ? :) [00:21:42] yeah... it was a circular loop [00:22:04] I plan to send the diff to the original creator of the extension [00:22:44] ah, nice. I thought that php would send some kind of "took too long to generate, killing..." message [00:22:56] yeah... me too [00:23:02] prolly wasn't caught [00:23:12] due to the custom error handlers [00:23:24] once I put a wfDebug message in the right place [00:23:27] 03erik * r32886 10/trunk/tools/planet/en/config.ini: +4 ; 2 modified [00:23:42] I noticed that a hook was calling a function that was calling the hook [00:24:11] 03(mod) issues getting to move protection box with screen reader JAWS in English Wikipedia and form labels - 10https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=11039 (10grahamwp) [00:24:18] 03(NEW) Wiki data dump intermittently produces corrupt .xml. bz2 files - 10https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=13638 15enhancement; normal; Wikimedia: Downloads; (brion) [00:24:57] now I just want to wrap the Wiki theme around the forums... so when they go to the forums they get the sidebar and everything [00:27:36] wonder if there is a way I can get the header and footer [00:28:17] hello [00:31:43] kassah_, includes/Skin.php , /me thinks :) [01:26:08] is this channel for help with wiki code? [01:27:49] not really, it's about the mediawiki software, but you could ask ;) [01:36:02] well, my question is here: http://wikia.pastey.net/85239 [02:20:03] hi, if I wanted the save button to do something else when people click on it [02:20:17] do you think MediaWiki:Common.js is a good place to do it? [02:22:49] That's one place. [02:22:57] What do you want to do? [02:22:59] Any other suggestions? [02:23:08] well, ideally, I'd like to use PHP [02:23:16] What are you trying to do? [02:23:28] I'm using Semantic Media Wiki and I'd like it to run an a shell script [02:23:37] to force a dump of the RDF data in the background [02:23:50] Hmm...I wouldn't know. [02:23:56] so everytime a save button gets clicked, a sell script gets run [02:23:58] OK. [02:27:48] Could write a simple hook to the page save event that executes the script [02:29:07] amidaniel: where do I find the save page event [02:29:16] e.g. is it in javascript or php? [02:29:24] php [02:29:32] js would never have access to shell [02:29:33] in EditPage.php ? [02:29:40] I could do an AJAX call [02:29:50] That's just evil and stupid [02:29:56] Do you want the script to execute on the client machine or the server? [02:30:00] the server [02:30:10] Dantman|FS: I'm glad you approve [02:30:40] mecredis: Then add a $wgHooks['ArticleSaveComplet'] = 'myFunction'; function myFunction { exec ( ... ); } [02:30:45] ArticleSaveComplete* [02:30:56] into EditPage.php ? [02:31:02] No [02:31:05] As an extension [02:31:08] ok [02:31:56] so i can create a new php in extensions [02:32:00] called myFunction.php [02:32:03] and just have that in there [02:32:22] Honnestly, SMW doesn't rebuild RDF on every page save for a reason [02:32:36] Dantman|FS: Yes, I understand that [02:32:39] it's intensive [02:32:39] mecredis: Yes, then load the extension in your local setting [02:32:46] using require_once [02:33:12] but this is going to be a very low traffic wiki [02:33:51] and the RDF dump is pretty quick [02:37:26] I'm getting a weird error : Warning: Cannot modify header information - headers already sent by (output started a ... [02:38:36] err forget it [02:42:40] I suggest cron... [02:44:41] If you really want it to be actively refreshed... I suggest setting up a system where the save hook creates a small file signalling the old state of the data, and having a script run on very high repeat in cron, if it finds that it'll create a sort of lock file to stop other calls to the script from calling a second process, and when it's finished it'll remove both files [02:45:10] That sounds much better to me [02:45:35] cronjobs are a far safer / more efficient way of handling this kind of situation [02:45:52] Having web-accessible php code execute shell scripts sends shivers up my spine :) [02:47:59] Dantman|FS: yeah, that was my plan [02:48:06] to just set a flag [02:48:11] and make cron notice it [02:48:18] but I wanted to get this just to do something [02:48:44] mecredis: What problem are you having? [02:48:45] but now ArticleSaveComplete is giving me issues [02:48:53] mkay... thought you were going to do something stupid like doing a shell call to spawn a new rdf process all the time [02:49:18] In this case all you need inside of MW are good old php functions [02:49:31] right, to create a file [02:49:38] or set a flag somewhere [02:49:40] that cron can check [02:50:05] Here's the error I'm getting trying to write this extension: [02:50:06] Detected bug in an extension! Hook rdfSaveDump failed to return a value; should return true to continue hook processing or false to abort. [02:50:21] file_put_contents( "{$IP}/.agedrdf", '1' ); [02:50:32] mecredis: Yes, the function will have to return true [02:50:38] ok [02:51:04] great, that fixed it [02:51:06] thanks [02:52:11] {$IP} is the media wiki main dir right? [02:52:22] It should be [02:52:25] Ya [02:52:31] Remember to global it though [02:52:34] ah [02:53:06] hrm [02:53:56] Can someone help me (with Templates) Please? http://wikia.pastey.net/85242-28tw [02:54:48] file_put_contents isn't doing it for me [02:54:53] do I need to give anything permissions? [02:55:08] Well the webserver is going to need write permissions [02:55:15] Nicolas_Jager: Do you have parser functions installed? [02:55:34] ok [02:55:49] I would think... aren't they on wikia.com? [02:55:49] Actually l suggest creating a locks/ or whatever you want to call it folder [02:56:02] Then making that writable by the server [02:56:06] right [02:56:15] via chown ? [02:56:15] That way you don't have to relese security on your files [02:56:26] chown and chmod [02:56:34] yeah [02:56:44] Did you read what I pasted? amidaniel? [02:57:51] still not work [02:57:59] working [02:58:08] I feel like I'm leaving something stupid out [02:58:11] Nicolas_Jager: Yeah, it's kind of a really complex template though. I can't give you a quick answer [02:58:56] well, what about a slow answer? [02:59:05] Nicolas_Jager: Just one thing; I'm not sure that inherited template parameters will be properly parsed by included templates. [02:59:35] um... could you explain that better? [02:59:45] That is if template Foo transcludes Bar, which has text {{{1}}}, and you use {{Foo|1=Test}}; I believe you might see {{{1}}} instead of Test [03:00:08] As 1 is a parameter to Foo, not Bar. I don't believe they are inherited [03:00:52] ok, it was user permissions [03:00:55] done, got it [03:00:58] thanks Dantman|FS [03:01:49] Nicolas_Jager: Yes, indeed, that is the case [03:01:54] oh, so, would I need to code Template:Weapon/If Exist/sub1 entirely different so it's not dependent on {{{x}}}? [03:01:57] The parameters will need to be forwarded for that to work [03:02:04] Yes [03:02:12] forwarded? how I do that? [03:02:43] Have your top-level template pass the parameter the lower level template is expecting to the lower level template [03:02:58] So, Foo would be {{Bar|1={{{1}}} }} [03:03:01] In the example I gave [03:06:13] so, what would be the top level and lower level templates in my case? [03:07:11] This .. umm .. Template:Weapon would be the top-level template [03:07:18] What ever it transcludes are the lower level templates [03:07:58] transcludes means calls upon? [03:10:32] umm .. yes [03:11:37] Whee .. fun irc problems [03:14:38] so, which template is the one I'd need to change? Template:Weapon, Template:Weapon/If Exist/sub1? or some other thing like List_of_Weapons? [03:15:38] Template:Weapon and everything that's transcluded in it [03:16:00] Template:Weapon has the parameter, anything that needs it will also need to receive the parameter [03:20:49] so as it is Template:Weapon/If Exist/sub1 doesn't have the parameter 0slotstype1str even though Template:Weapon does have it? [03:21:04] yes [03:24:49] I'm still not understanding how to make Template:Weapon give all the parameters it has to Template:Weapon/If Exist/sub1 [03:25:55] It would need to use {{User:Nicolasjager/Template:Weapon/If Exist/sub1 |0slottype1str={{{0slottype1str}}}| etc., as would all the templates included in that and so on [03:32:05] So, would this be the case: http://wikia.pastey.net/85244-1oij ? [03:33:00] yes [03:33:56] hm... that kinda invalidates the whole reason I wanted to use Template:Weapon/If Exist/sub1 .... [03:36:03] or am I adding: 0slottype1str={{{0slottype1str}}} ... to the Template: Template:Weapon/If Exist ... not to every place I use/call it? [03:50:31] yay, it now works, but instead of replaceing 5 lines of code with one line, I can replace 5 lines with 420 lines. [03:59:51] okay... odd question... can't find this in the docs... but how do I create a link that will open in a new window? [04:00:15] kassah_: well, its not really doable in mw [04:00:37] unless you use javascript [04:00:49] ahh [04:02:45] Is it possible to have all of my articles and mediawiki files in a folder called /wiki/ like recommended, but also have the web server (Apache) configured to have URLs with or without /wiki/ work? ie wikisite.com/Main_Page/ would be an internal Apache alias (or something) to wikisite.com/wiki/Main_Page? [04:04:05] in short no... [04:04:39] but... with some rewrite trickery [04:04:48] you may be able to setup a redirector without breaking everything [04:04:57] but I've tried without success for a couple of years now [04:05:08] It can be done, but it's usually a bad idea. [04:05:25] Unless you set up a separate subdomain to alias the articles to the wiki subdir of another subdomain [04:05:31] Well what about vice versa? Would it be better or worse to have the wiki pages stored in documentroot with aliases to a /wiki/ folder? [04:06:27] my current untried theory is setting up rewrite to rewrite any url where a file or folder wouldn't exist to x url... which redirects to the proper wiki url [04:07:25] If all that's in the root is the wiki directory then you can set up a conditional rewrite to rewrite all but wiki to wiki/index.php?title=$1 [04:07:50] It's still usually bad for rewrite rules to conflict with actual files on the server [04:08:01] !shorturl | lymeca [04:08:01] --mwbot-- lymeca: To create simple URLs (such as the /wiki/PAGENAME style URLs on Wikimedia sites), follow the instructions at . There are instructions for most different webserver setups. If you have problems getting the rewrite rules to work, see !rewriteproblem [04:08:48] Anyway, gotta run [04:08:52] Good luck [04:08:59] amidaniel|away: I've read extensively on different methods of getting short URLs and negative aspects of files in documentroot [04:09:01] aye [04:30:18] 03shinjiman * r32887 10/trunk/phase3/languages/messages/ (4 files): [04:30:18] * Update Chinese translations [04:30:18] * Update Cantonese translations [04:30:18] * Update Old Chinese / Late Time Chinese translations [04:39:37] 03aaron * r32888 10/trunk/extensions/FlaggedRevs/flaggedrevs.css: Tone down [04:41:32] 03shinjiman * r32889 10/trunk/phase3/languages/messages/ (MessagesKk_arab.php MessagesKk_cyrl.php MessagesKk_latn.php): [04:41:32] * (bug 12145) Update Kazakh translations [04:41:32] patch by AlefZet [04:41:56] 03(FIXED) Kazakh message updates - 10https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=12145 +comment (10shinjiman) [04:46:11] 03aaron * r32890 10/trunk/extensions/FlaggedRevs/ (FlaggedRevs.php FlaggedRevsPage.i18n.php FlaggedRevsPage.php): Inevitable preference bloat ;) [04:50:46] 03aaron * r32891 10/trunk/phase3/languages/messages/MessagesEn.php: Shorten a tad by using '/' [04:54:01] 03shinjiman * r32892 10/trunk/phase3/RELEASE-NOTES: update the RELEASE-NOTES for r32889 [05:02:53] 03shinjiman * r32893 10/trunk/phase3/languages/messages/ (4 files): [05:02:54] * Update Chinese translations [05:02:54] * Update Cantonese translations [05:02:54] * Update Old Chinese / Late Time Chinese translations [05:06:49] 03aaron * r32894 10/trunk/extensions/FlaggedRevs/FlaggedRevsPage.php: Add fieldset [05:10:44] Hi!

That could have worked, indeed. I'm done spamming for now :) [10:05:28] TimStarling: Wine? ;) [10:06:06] nautilus plugin? [10:07:19] TimStarling: I have been looking for a TortoiseSVN style package for OSX. Haven't been able to find a proper performing client for that platform yet :( [10:09:47] 03(NEW) "Show changes" yields php error - 10https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=13641 15enhancement; normal; MediaWiki: Page editing; (bugzilla.wikimedia) [10:09:56] TimStarling: what do I need to do to get GlobalBlocking enabled on wikimedia? poke brion? change bug 8707 to be a shell request? close bug 8707 as FIXED and open a new bug? all of the above? [10:10:54] you only committed it like an hour ago [10:11:11] I know, but I'm wondering what the next step is. [10:12:02] maybe to merge those two (three) same msgs globalblocking-search-ip and globalblocking-unblock-ipaddress [10:12:04] :) [10:12:27] I'll review it, then brion should at least be told about it [10:12:32] I left those separate because some languages or wikis may wish to type IP address to search for for the former, and IP address to unblock for the latter, or something [10:12:37] it should sit in SVN for general community review for a few days [10:12:42] okay [10:12:50] then we can think about enabling it [10:13:43] Werdna, ok, fine with me [10:15:00] why does it load extension messages on startup? [10:15:52] it doesn't, anymore [10:15:53] see above [10:16:13] siebrand already pointed that out to me. [10:16:31] ok [10:16:37] http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:Splarka/dabfinder.js can anyone think of an easier way to do this? (this was an exercise in speculation: a self contained live disambiguation finder userscript) [10:16:44] why does it use global functions? [10:17:23] those hooks could be static member functions of an autoloaded class [10:17:42] and should be? [10:18:16] well, it would be good practice [10:18:22] okay, I'll fix that up [10:19:31] $conds = array( 'gb_address' => $ip, 'gb_timestamp<'.$dbr->timestamp(wfTimestampNow()) ); [10:19:43] $dbr->timestamp() needs addQuotes() [10:20:24] $res = $dbr->select( 'globalblocks', '*', $conds ) [10:20:32] needs function name parameter [10:21:49] also you appear to only use one row of that result, so selectRow() would make more sense [10:22:14] *Lady_Aleena lurks. [10:22:14] which will add LIMIT 1 [10:23:23] *Lady_Aleena stops lurking. [10:23:37] Anyone here familiar with Template:Chart? [10:24:23] {{disambig}}? which wiki? [10:24:39] en.wikipedia [10:25:56] ahh, yah, sorta like the family tree template (spooky) [10:26:04] specifying an access restriction in the SpecialPage constructor doesn't actually restrict it if you override execute() [10:26:19] Splarka: More features... [10:26:38] you need to call userCanExecute() and displayRestrictionError() yourself [10:26:46] I tried to help someone port that (the family tree one) to another wiki, was a horrible experience, heh [10:26:58] so, while I am not familiar with it, I am scarred by it [10:27:44] TimStarling: ah, I noticed that, hence the check lower down in execute(). Can I just call parent::execute() instead? [10:27:48] I made a chart with it, but I could use some help with the asthetic (sp) look of mine. And Splarka, once you get the hang of it, it isn't too awfully bad. [10:28:36] oh, you mean using it? isn't wikicode fun... [10:29:03] you mean this? [10:29:07] if (count($errors = SpecialPage::getTitleFor('GlobalBlock')->getUserPermissionsErrors('globalblock', $wgUser))>1) { [10:29:27] yes, that. [10:29:28] Splarka: Yes, it is just a joy. Unfortunately, for two templates I made, I had to use HTML instead of Wiki code for the layout. [10:29:38] *Splarka shudders [10:29:39] it's very wordy [10:29:44] indeed. [10:29:51] I wasn't aware of userCanExecute [10:29:58] yeah, use that instead [10:30:03] Splarka: A single carrage return in those two templates would break them. [10:30:03] parent::execute() doesn't work [10:30:23] ok. [10:30:52] SpecialPage::userCanExecute(), that is [10:31:30] okay. [10:32:22] Lady: indeed, wikicode is very line-return sensitive [10:33:00] although there is some movement to reduce that somewhat.. such as allow ol/nl lists to continue, with line breaks... *glances at Tim* how is that coming along? [10:33:02] /server irc.belwue.de [10:33:04] Splarka: Don't I know it. I had to use HTML since it can all be one line and still be formatted correctly. I would love it if I could one line tables. [10:33:36] ..if I could do a one line wiki code table. (that is) [10:34:17] well, you can with template calls... heh [10:34:26] ` [10:34:34] Ah, that would sort of defeat the purpose. [10:34:37] indeed [10:34:57] link? [10:35:05] TimStarling: how often should I be purging expired blocks? (I just realised I wasn't doing that) I understand it'll be fairly nasty, performance-wise, so I was thinking of doing it when a block is made (i.e. connection to the master already open) [10:35:16] Also, I want to be able to format lists...especially ordered lists. [10:35:35] Splarka: What do you want a link to? [10:35:38] sounds fine [10:35:42] you can do that by using the html (not what you wanna hear, heh) [10:35:57] put it in a separate transaction so it doesn't hold the locks for too long [10:36:05] some people might consider it uncool to let your lines run out to 150 characters [10:36:13]
