api error
by Tim Moody 13 Mar '24

13 Mar '24

If I access https://en.wikipedia.org/w/api.php?action=visualeditor&mobileformat=html&fo… I get back Error Our servers are currently under maintenance or experiencing a technical problem. Please try again in a few minutes. See the error message at the bottom of this page for more information. If you report this error to the Wikimedia System Administrators, please include the details below. Request ID: 11569b5b-b74f-4cff-8e28-836d18914c30 Allowed memory size of 1468006400 bytes exhausted (tried to allocate 20480 bytes) However https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Timeline_of_the_COVID-19_pandemic_in_Canada does return a page If I access https://en.wikipedia.org/w/api.php?action=visualeditor&mobileformat=html&fo… I get legitimate json. So the api does seem to be working. And https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gout returns a page I'm not sure how to proceed. After a number of hours it has not yet resolved.

Adding Docker images to the registry via Gitlab
by Sebastian Berlin 12 Mar '24

12 Mar '24

I'm trying to use the new workflow for uploading Docker images to the registry. Following the link under wikitech:Docker-registry#Downloading images <https://wikitech.wikimedia.org/wiki/Docker-registry#Downloading_images> I ended up on mw:GitLab/Workflows/Deploying services to production <https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/GitLab/Workflows/Deploying_services_to_produ…> as the recommended way to do it. As far as I can tell the service repos should live under repos/mediawiki/services/ in Gitlab and you need to have access to the group to import repos there. I clicked on "Request access" in the menu for that group, but I don't think anything has happened since then. Is there anything else I need to do to be granted access? For context, the service I want to add Docker image for is part of Speechoid, a service bundle(?) for Wikispeech <https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:Wikispeech>. Currently we have a few other services that have their code on Gerrit <https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/admin/repos/q/filter:wikispeech>. *Sebastian Berlin* Utvecklare/*Developer* Wikimedia Sverige (WMSE) E-post/*E-Mail*: sebastian.berlin(a)wikimedia.se Telefon/*Phone*: (+46) 0707 - 92 03 84

debian 12 VPS cron
by Tim Moody 10 Mar '24

10 Mar '24

On my debian 11 VPS cron.service is running and there is an /etc/crontab. Same is true on debian 12 machines at home. On my debian 12 VPS cron.service is not running and there is no /etc/crontab. However /etc/cron.daily, etc. exist and have scripts. In the past crontab also controlled daily, etc. Does the cron package need to be installed or is there another mechanism?

[GRID SHUTDOWN] Grid Engine Is Shutting Down On The 14th Of March
by Seyram Komla Sapaty 08 Mar '24

08 Mar '24

Hello all, We are on the last stretch of the grid engine deprecation process[0] and this means that the grid will be shutting down on Thursday, the 14th of March. You can find a reminder of the full timeline here[1] There's about 30 tools still running on the grid, if you are one of the few left to migrate, kindly ensure they are migrated before the 14th or reach out[2] to the team if you are facing any challenges or need some assistance. We have also reached out on phabricator and via email to the remaining maintainers that still have their tools running on the grid to see if we can help ease the migration or see if there are any blocking issues. If you have a tool that is still on the grid and you cannot meet the above deadline, kindly reach out via the tool migration phabricator ticket or our support channels[2], note that this is a hard deadline and no extensions would be granted but we might be able to help you do the transition. We really appreciate all the effort and feedback given on the new platform, this will help us improve our service and reduce the maintenance burden in the long term for tool maintainers and toolforge admins alike.

Changes to JavaScript documentation tools
by Alexandra Paskulin 08 Mar '24

08 Mar '24

Hi everyone, tl;dr The tools we use to document Wikimedia JavaScript code are changing. In the short term, you can read the complete MediaWiki core JavaScript docs using the 1.41 version[0] while we migrate to the new system[1]. If you use JavaScript documentation on doc.wikimedia.org, please share your feedback on wiki[2]. Wikimedia JavaScript codebases are switching from using JSDuck[3] to JSDoc[4] for documentation. Started in 2016, this migration is necessary because JSDuck is currently unmaintained and does not support the ES6 standard[5]. Several Wikimedia JavaScript codebases, including Vector and GlobalWatchlist, already use JSDoc, while several others, such as VisualEditor and MediaWiki core, still use JSDuck. The migration project consists of two parts: changing the codebases to support JSDoc and improving the usability of the JSDoc WMF theme. For more information, see phab:T138401[6]. == Migrating MediaWiki core to JSDoc == We are migrating MediaWiki core to JSDoc incrementally. While the migration is in progress, the master branch docs will be incomplete, containing only those modules that have been migrated. To read the old JSDuck docs, see the MediaWiki 1.41 docs[0]. To help with migration, choose a module from the list in phab:T352308[7], and follow the guide on phab:T138401[6] to translate the tags from JSDuck to JSDoc. == Migrating other codebases == You can find a list of codebases that use JSDuck on phab:T138401[6]. (Please add any that are missing.) To help migrate a codebase that uses JSDuck, follow the instructions to set up JSDoc[8], and use the guide in phab:T138401[6] to translate the tags from JSDuck to JSDoc. == Improving the JSDoc WMF theme == One of the biggest differences between JSDuck and JSDoc is the HTML interface for reading the docs. The WMF theme for JSDoc is not as full-featured as the JSDuck theme, but to support this migration, the Wikimedia Foundation Web, Design Systems, and Technical Documentation teams are working to prioritize and complete a set of improvements to the JSDoc theme, with the goal of releasing version 1 of jsdoc-wmf-theme in 2024. If you use JavaScript documentation on doc.wikimedia.org, please leave a comment on the JSDoc WMF theme talk page[2] and let us know how you use the docs and which features of the theme are the most important to you. Thank you for reading!
