Current configuration on the wiki
This data is the same as the 'credits' data that is already compiled, cached and made available via ExtensionRegistry. Similar to various other configuration variables previously, the $wgExtensionCredits variable is now also required to only be used for providing input to the system (e.g. from LocalSettings.php, or from legacy extension PHP entry points). It is no longer supported to use this variable to reliably read out a full view of all extension credits (specifically those registered via extension.json). Doing so had the downside of adding processing cost to every web request, as well as taking one the single largest portion of the ExtensionRegistry APCu cache key, which in PHP7+ incurs a linear cost for every string value, string key, of every (sub)array in this huge structure; and does to on every request just in case something reads from $wgExtensionCredits. The new method to access this information reliably is owned by SpecialVersion for now (could be moved elsewhere). This also makes the merging logic more testable and incurs it on-demand rather than upfront. Details: * Move 'type' internally from NOT_ATTRIBS to CREDIT_ATTRIBS. These two arrays behave identically for most purposes (they are both used to mean "don't export this as a global attribute"). By placing it in CREDIT_ATTRIBS it becomes complete and makes it easy to refer to in docs. Previously, extractCredits() read the 'type' key outside the loop for CREDIT_ATTRIBS. * Remove redundant code in ApiBase.php, that is now more obviously redundant. Looks like a left-over or merge conflict mistake from when ExtensionRegistry was first introduced. Bug: T187154 Change-Id: I6d66c58fbe57c530f9a43cae504b0d6aa4ffcd0d |

== MediaWiki == MediaWiki is a free and open-source wiki software package written in PHP. It serves as the platform for Wikipedia and the other Wikimedia projects, used by hundreds of millions of people each month. MediaWiki is localised in over 350 languages and its reliability and robust feature set have earned it a large and vibrant community of third-party users and developers. MediaWiki is: * feature-rich and extensible, both on-wiki and with hundreds of extensions; * scalable and suitable for both small and large sites; * simple to install, working on most hardware/software combinations; and * available in your language. For system requirements, installation, and upgrade details, see the files RELEASE-NOTES, INSTALL, and UPGRADE. * Ready to get started? ** https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Special:MyLanguage/Download * Looking for the technical manual? ** https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Special:MyLanguage/Manual:Contents * Seeking help from a person? ** https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Special:MyLanguage/Communication * Looking to file a bug report or a feature request? ** https://bugs.mediawiki.org/ * Interested in helping out? ** https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Special:MyLanguage/How_to_contribute MediaWiki is the result of global collaboration and cooperation.
