Hello all,
How well does MediaWIki work with Java? If I want to use Java code to parse files, access the database, provide or process content for my Wiki - how easy or hard is it to make that happen?
Thanks.
Boris.
MediaWiki is written in PHP. It expects its extensions to be php. Thus, not too well :)
You could directly access the db from java, or serve some resources from java, or even use them at an extension proxying with a little of php. But using PHP would be much easier.

Well, I'd imagine some PHP wrapper around Java code should be an option. For instance, stuff like this:
