AFAICT it is now customary to develop MediaWiki extensions<br>
with MediaWiki-Vagrant. I see that you already have a bare<br>
class role::wikispeech. Usually, you would now add code to<br>
set up and launch any necessary servers, etc. in this class,<br>
so that not only other developers have the same environment,<br>
but this environment can be replicated in Labs by running<br>
MediaWiki-Vagrant there<br>
(cf. <a href="https://wikitech.wikimedia.org/wiki/Help:MediaWiki-Vagrant_in_Labs" rel="noreferrer" target="_blank">https://wikitech.wikimedia.<wbr>org/wiki/Help:MediaWiki-<wbr>Vagrant_in_Labs</a>).<br>
Then the wiki on this MediaWiki-Vagrant instance can easily<br>
be made publicly accessible.<br>
<br>
To start, you should request a new Labs project for Wiki-<br>
speech<br>
(cf. <a href="https://wikitech.wikimedia.org/wiki/Help:Getting_Started#Create_Projects" rel="noreferrer" target="_blank">https://wikitech.wikimedia.<wbr>org/wiki/Help:Getting_Started#<wbr>Create_Projects</a>),<br>
learn (by doing :-)) how to set up a MediaWiki-Vagrant in-<br>
stance and make it publicly accessible, but safe from spam-<br>
mers, and then enhance role::wikispeech so that it sets up<br>
the TTS server, etc. The latter task can be daunting for<br>
developers new to Puppet, but the beauty of MediaWiki-Va-<br>
grant is that other, more experienced developers can help<br>
because they can easily set up the same environment as you.<br>
