I am currently working on some WikiData code that
deprecates a number of
core functions since new more generic ones have been introduced (don't
panic - this is all on a branch). Since I want to see if I'm using anything
that got deprecated right away, I have deprecation warnings turned on. Now
a lot of the code is still using these now deprecated core functions and it
will take some time to change all of this. So my question now is how can I
continue working ignoring these specific notices I cannot fix now while not
turning notices off altogether?
I actually know this cannot be done in with current wfDeprecated and
associated config. A few months back I added 3 lines (a global setting and
an if with array_key_exists in its condition) that allow ignoring specific
deprecation notices, but it got reverted since the functionality was not
worth the 3 lines according to some people.
So please enlighten me on how I can proceed with working now.
You can't just filter the output? This seems like a trivial problem to
solve, though it's completely possible I'm missing something.
It sounds like the issue is one of signal and noise. Usually the answer to
increasing signal is to reduce noise. Can't you just filter out the
deprecation warnings you're interested in or not interested in from whatever
output you're reading from?
