Hey,
I'm looking for a way to collect existing extension meta-data from the SVN
repo and maybe also the extension pages on
MediaWiki.org. Does anyone know
of scripts/tools that already do this?
Depending on what metadata you need, the $wgExtensionCredits variable
could be your friend. Note that the extension doesn't need to actually
be installed: in most cases you can get away with just locating the
file that contains the $wgExtensionCredits assignment and require()ing
that file. This will probably fail in some cases, but most setup files
only contain assignments.
