Hi, I have build mediawiki . And I have another webservice write by myself. What I want is :
1. when I register in my service , it could create an acount in mediawiki 2. when I login in my service , it could login in mediawiki 3. when I logout in my service ,it could logout in mediawiki
I have found API:Login and API:Logout . But I cannot find something like API:CreateAccount. So can someone tell me how to create account by API? Thanks.
Hi there!
I'm by not at all specialist on API, but this page looks like you want:

There is currently no API to do account creation (https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/API:Account_creation is a draft, and IIRC there is nobody actively working on it). There was a GSoC student working on it last year (https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:SignupAPI) but I don't think that's in any state to be deployed soon.
Thank you. So do you mean that I cannot create an account through my service?

It seems like it would make more sense to just use a central authentication system to support both the Wiki and the other services. There are extensions and plugins for LDAP and other authentication methods.

Hmm, if there is actually any interest, I might try and work on the account registration API.

I'm sure there's plenty of interest! From what I know, at least Mobile Team is interested in them (enabling account creation in apps).
Awesome. In that case I'll put it on my project list. Depending on how free I am, I should have something in the next week or two.

To me, too. I will stop working on my program that scrapes the web interface to create accounts, then!
