[BREAKING CHANGE] Remove support for 'object' in wgResourceModules
by Krinkle 25 Jul '19

25 Jul '19

TL;DR: The pre-2011 option of setting a ResourceLoaderModule instance in $wgResourceModules, or calling ResourceLoader->register with an object as second parameter, will be removed in MediaWiki 1.34.0 (release expected in Nov 2019). Change these to an array using the 'class' or 'factory' keys instead. (Examples below.) This only affects legacy extensions using PHP files to register modules. If your extension already registers its modules via extension.json, then this change does not affect you. ------- During the experimental release of ResourceLoader in MediaWiki 1.16 (2010), modules had to be registered via $wgResourceModules as an object instance of ResourceLoaderModule. In MediaWiki 1.17.0 (2011), as part of the first default-on public release of ResourceLoader, this was replaced with the ability to register a declarative array instead. [1] This allowed modules to be lazy-instantiated by ResourceLoader. These arrays can be class-based (this is the default, using the 'class' option), or closure-based (using the 'factory' key). This option was removed as part of refactoring to make ResourceLoader (more) standalone. I did not want to incur the overhead of maintaining it for another release cycle through deprecation first. It has been undocumented since before the first non-experimental release of ResourceLoader in 1.17.0 (it was kept "temporarily" for compat with 1.17alpha at WMF). No known usage was found in Gerrit-hosted extensions, nor in any of the Codesearch-index repos hosted externally. It also can't affect extensions using extension.json for module registration (since MW 1.25). Examples of the needed conversion: ``` # Before (no longer supported) $wgResourceModules['ext.Foo'] = new MyModuleSubClass(); $wgResourceModules['ext.Bar'] = new MyModuleSubClass( [ 'xyz' => true, ] ); $wgResourceModules['ext.Baz'] = efComposeSomeComplexObject(); # After (PHP) $wgResourceModules['ext.Foo'] = [ 'class' => MyModuleSubClass::class ]; $wgResourceModules['ext.Bar'] = [ 'class' => MyModuleSubClass::class, 'xyz' => true ]; $wgResourceModules['ext.Baz'] = [ 'factory' => 'efComposeSomeComplexObject' ]; # After (JSON, recommended) "ResourceModules": { "ext.Foo": { "class": "MyModuleSubClass" }, "ext.Bar": { "class": "MyModuleSubClass", "xyz": true }, "ext.Baz": { "factory": "MyExtHooks::composeSomeComplexObject" } ``` -- Timo [0] https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T222637 [1] https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/g/mediawiki/core/+/dac5084f6d61b6c45bfae491a2b… - https://github.com/wikimedia/mediawiki/commit/dac5084f6d

Blubber v0.8.0/blubber.yaml update
by Tyler Cipriani 25 Jul '19

25 Jul '19

Hi all! CAVEAT EMPTOR: If you don't use the Deployment Pipeline[0] or Blubber[1] then this email may mean nothing to you. A new version of Blubber has been released -- v0.8.0[2]. The main change is that we've eliminated the "artifacts" command for use in multistage builds. The details of this change are available in the Blubber User Guide[3]. I've created patches that preserve the current functionality of Blubber for the Deployment Pipeline and tagged all of them "blubber-v4" in Gerrit[4]. Thanks! -- Tyler [0]. <https://wikitech.wikimedia.org/wiki/Deployment_pipeline> [1]. <https://wikitech.wikimedia.org/wiki/Blubber> [2]. <https://wikitech.wikimedia.org/wiki/Blubber/Download#Latest_Release> [3]. <https://wikitech.wikimedia.org/wiki/Blubber/User_Guide#Shorthand_copies> [4]. <https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/#/q/topic:blubber-v4>

Phabricator primary database master switchover (read-only required) Thursday 25th July 05:30 AM UTC
by Manuel Arostegui 24 Jul '19

24 Jul '19

Hello, On Thursday 25th July at 05:30 AM UTC we will switchover our current primary database master for m3 (phabricator) from db1072 to db1128.+ This is the tracking task for this maintenance: https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T228243 db1072, the current db master, is old, and out of warranty and will be replaced by db1128, a newer and more powerful host. Impact: The switchover will require a few minutes of read-only on phabricator, so nothing will be allowed to be written. Reads will remain unaffected Communication will happen on #wikimedia-operations Thanks Manuel.

Re: [Wikitech-l] Looking for a Wikimedia tool developer for our research project
by Houcemeddine A. Turki 24 Jul '19

24 Jul '19

Dear Sir, I thank you for your answer. There were many discussions about this important issue. We have already organized a meeting about the matter and created https://m.wikidata.org/wiki/Wikidata:Database_evaluation. Other works can be https://iswc2017.semanticweb.org/wp-content/uploads/papers/PostersDemos/pap… and http://snap.stanford.edu/wikiworkshop2016/papers/Wiki_Workshop__WWW_2016_pa…. This research project is absolutely simple. We define critical matters in the structure of the information provided by Wikidata and we try to develop easy tools to solve them. For example, if a Wikidata property X is asymmetric and X(A,B) exists, then X(B,A) is not possible. However, this particular situation exists in Wikidata. Here, we need a simple tool that let a triple X(A,B) highlighted in yellow if the triple X(B,A) exists. As you see here, the creation of such a tool is simple and does not require a lot of time.

Dear all, I thank you for your efforts. I am working on a research project to ameliorate linked data quality of Wikidata. I am looking for a develop who can create Gadget tools like Merge that can be implemented on Wikidata to adjust common deficiencies. I have several ideas on how to develop the Gadget tools. But, I lack the skills needed to do that. I ask if someone can join our research project and create the tools for our work. I will attend Wikimania from 16 to 18 August 2019 and I will be honoured to meet him during the conference.
