[BREAKING CHANGE] meta=notifications outputs array instead of object since 1.27.0-wmf.22 - Mediawiki-api-announce

28 Jun 2016


      As of 1.27.0-wmf.22 (deployed to WMF wikis April 26-28) and MediaWiki
release 1.27 (specifically, this change
https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/rECHOb10bd700333d2eef10c7df0a9946b87fd451f81b
in Echo), meta=notifications will return its result as an array rather than
an object.
Previously, the meta=notifications output looked like:
{
    "query": {
        "notifications": {
            "list": {
                "12345": {
                    "id": "12345",
                    "type": "edit-user-talk",
                    ...
                },
                ...
            }
Now, it looks like:
{
    "query": {
        "notifications": {
            "list": [
                {
                    "id": "12345",
                    "type": "edit-user-talk",
                    ...
                },
                ...
            ]
