Hello list,

I’m new to WikiMedia in general, and have been given the task to extend to API.

We have created a SpecialPage that performs the actions desired, but we need to be able to access the output in XML, via the API.

I have been looking for a good tutorial on creating API extensions and have come up empty handed.

Do you (any of you) know of a good resource for sample code or a tutorial?

The general API documentation is good (though daunting) for making use of existing API calls, but what little information I did find (http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/API:Calling_internally) is limited on creating a new API extension, especially when mimicking output of a 3^rd party extension or custom written Special Page.

Any help will be appreciated. Thank you in advance!
