magicword.txt
Magic Words are some phrases used in the wikitext. They are used for two things:
* Variables (like {{PAGENAME}}, {{SERVER}}, ...): part of wikitext, that looks
like templates but that don't accept any parameter.
* Parser functions (like {{fullurl:...}}, {{#special:...}}): behaves like
functions and accepts parameters.
The localized arrays keys are the internal name, and the values are an array,
whose include their case-sensitivity and their alias forms. The first form
defined is used by the program, for example, when moving a page and its old name
should include #REDIRECT.
They can be added in several arrays:
* By adding a file to $wgExtensionMessagesFiles and defining there $magicWords.
This array is associative with the language code in the first dimension key
and then a "normal" array of magic words.
* Localized arrays (languages/messages/LanguageXX.php) include their different
names to be used by the users.
To add a new variable, you should use the "MagicWordwgVariableIDs" hook to add
the internal name to the $magicWords array. You'll need to define the value of
the variable with the "ParserGetVariableValueSwitch" hook.
For example to add a new variable:
Create a file called ExtensionName.i18n.magic.php with the following contents:
----
<?php
$magicWords = array();
$magicWords['en'] = array(
// Case sensitive.
'mag_custom' => array( 1, 'CUSTOM' ),
);
$magicWords['es'] = array(
'mag_custom' => array( 1, 'ADUANERO' ),
);
----
$wgExtensionMessagesFiles['ExtensionNameMagic'] = __DIR__ . '/ExtensionName.i18n.magic.php';
$wgHooks['MagicWordwgVariableIDs'][] = 'wfAddCustomMagicWordID';
$wgHooks['ParserGetVariableValueSwitch'][] = 'wfGetCustomMagicWordValue';
function wfAddCustomMagicWordID( &$magicWords ) {
$magicWords[] = 'mag_custom';
return true;
}
function wfGetCustomMagicWordValue( &$parser, &$varCache, &$index, &$ret ){
if( $index == 'mag_custom' ){
$ret = $varCache['mag_custom'] = "Custom value";
}
return true;
}
And to add a new parser function:
Create a file called ExtensionName.i18n.magic.php with the following contents:
----
<?php
$magicWords = array();
$magicWords['en'] = array(
// Case insensitive.
'mag_custom' => array( 0, 'custom' ),
);
$magicWords['es'] = array(
'mag_custom' => array( 0, 'aduanero' ),
);
----
$wgExtensionMessagesFiles['ExtensionNameMagic'] = __DIR__ . '/ExtensionName.i18n.magic.php';
$wgHooks['ParserFirstCallInit'][] = 'wfRegisterCustomMagicWord';
function wfRegisterCustomMagicWord( &$parser ){
$parser->setFunctionHook( 'mag_custom', 'wfGetCustomMagicWordValue' );
return true;
}
function wfGetCustomMagicWordValue( &$parser, $var1, $var2 ){
return "custom: var1 is $var1, var2 is $var2";
}
Note: the 'ParserFirstCallInit' hook is only available since 1.12. To work with
an older version, you'll need to use an extension function.
