scripts.txt
|
|
|
|
MediaWiki primary scripts are in the root directory of the software. Users
|
|
should only use these scripts to access the wiki. There are also some .php that
|
|
aren't primary scripts but helper files and won't work if they are accessed
|
|
directly by the web.
|
|
|
|
Primary scripts:
|
|
|
|
index.php
|
|
Main access point. It handles the most of requests.
|
|
See http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:Index.php
|
|
|
|
api.php
|
|
Script to provide an API for bots to fetch content and informations about
|
|
the site and also modify it. See http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/API
|
|
for more informations.
|
|
|
|
img_auth.php
|
|
Script that only serve images to logged in users. To configure the wiki
|
|
to use that script, see http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:Image_Authorisation.
|
|
|
|
opensearch_desc.php
|
|
Returns a OpenSearch description document (see http://www.opensearch.org/)
|
|
that points to the search engines of the wiki.
|
|
|
|
profileinfo.php
|
|
Allow users to see the profiling information that are stored in the
|
|
database.
|
|
|
|
To save the profiling information in the database (required to use this
|
|
script), you have to modify StartProfiler.php to use the Profiler class and
|
|
not the stub profiler which is enabled by default.
|
|
You will also need to set $wgProfileToDatabase to true in LocalSettings.php
|
|
to force the profiler to save the informations in the database and apply the
|
|
maintenance/archives/patch-profiling.sql patch to the database.
|
|
|
|
To enable the profileinfo.php itself, you'll need to set $wgDBadminuser
|
|
and $wgDBadminpassword in your LocalSettings.php, as well as $wgEnableProfileInfo
|
|
See also http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/How_to_debug#Profiling.
|
|
|
|
redirect.php
|
|
Script that only redirect to the article passed in the wpDropdown parameter
|
|
of the request. Used by the nostalgia skin to access special pages with the
|
|
dropdown box at the top of the page.
|
|
|
|
thumb.php
|
|
Script used to resize images if it is configured to be done when the web
|
|
browser requests the image and not when generating the page. This script can
|
|
be used as a 404 handler to generate image thumbs when they don't exist.
|
|
|
|
trackback.php
|
|
Allow to add a new trackback to the database. This script returns XML
|
|
and require a POST request to work, thus it should only be accessed by some
|
|
specific programs and won't work with normal web browsers.
|
|
|
|
There is also a file with a .php5 extension for each script. They can be used if
|
|
the web server needs a .php5 to run the file with the PHP 5 engine and runs .php
|
|
scripts with PHP 4. To use these files, you have to modify $wgScriptExtension to
|
|
'.php5' is LocalSettings.php but it is already done by the config script if you
|
|
used the config/index.php5 script.
