MediaWiki SDK (PHP)

This project enables PHP developers to use

Installation

You can install the package via composer:

composer require ekut/mediawiki-sdk-php
  • Note: This package only supports php:^8.0.

Usage

In general, we use the SDK by this way:

  $wiki = new \MediawikiSdkPhp\MediaWiki();
  $params = ['foo'=>'bar'];
  /** @var \Spatie\DataTransferObject\DataTransferObject $res */
  $res = $wiki->{ResourceName()}->{ActionName($params)}
  /** @var array $data */
  $data = $res->toArray();

Default language is English. If we want to use another language, we can set it in MediaWiki constructor:

  $wiki = new \MediawikiSdkPhp\MediaWiki('ru');

Real examples: see bellow. Error handling: see bellow.

Configuration (.env)

The package use vlucas/phpdotenv for set environment variables. All you need to do is fulfill .env file in root project folder with two variables/values:

MEDIAWIKI_HOST="https://www.wikipedia.org/"
COMMONS_HOST="https://commons.wikimedia.org/"

MediaWiki REST API

file

get

Returns information about a file, including links to download the file in thumbnail, preview, and original formats.

  $wiki = new MediaWiki();
  $params = ['title'=>'The_Blue_Marble.jpg'];
  $res = $wiki->file()->get($params);

page

create

Creates a wiki page. The response includes a location header containing the API endpoint to fetch the new page.

This endpoint is designed to be used with the OAuth extension authorization process. Callers using cookie-based authentication instead must add a CSRF token to the request body. To get a CSRF token, see the Action API.

@ToDo

update

Updates or creates a wiki page. This endpoint is designed to be used with the OAuth extension authorization process. Callers using cookie-based authentication instead must add a CSRF token to the request body. To get a CSRF token, see the Action API.

To update a page, you need the page's latest revision ID and the page source. First call the get page source endpoint, and then use the source and latest.id to update the page. If latest.id doesn't match the page's latest revision, the API resolves conflicts automatically when possible. In the event of an edit conflict, the API returns a 409 error.

To create a page, omit latest.id from the request.

@ToDo

get

Returns the standard page object for a wiki page, including the API route to fetch the latest content in HTML, the license, and information about the latest revision.

  $wiki = new MediaWiki();
  $params = ['title'=>'Jupiter'];
  $res = $wiki->page()->get($params);

getOffline

Returns information about a wiki page, including the license, latest revision, and latest content in HTML.

  $wiki = new MediaWiki();
  $params = ['title'=>'Jupiter'];
  $res = $wiki->page()->getOffline($params);

getSource

Returns the content of a wiki page in the format specified by the content_model property, the license, and information about the latest revision.

  $wiki = new MediaWiki();
  $params = ['title'=>'Jupiter'];
  $res = $wiki->page()->getSource($params);

getHtml

Returns the latest content of a wiki page in HTML.

@ToDo = MediawikiResponse. 
  $wiki = new MediaWiki();
  $params = ['title'=>'Jupiter'];
  $res = $wiki->page()->getHtml($params);

getLanguages

Searches connected wikis for pages with the same topic in different languages. Returns an array of page language objects that include the name of the language, the language code, and the translated page title.

  $wiki = new MediaWiki();
  $params = ['title'=>'Jupiter'];
  $res = $wiki->page()->getLanguages($params);

getFiles

Returns information about media files used on a wiki page.

  $wiki = new MediaWiki();
  $params = ['title'=>'Jupiter'];
  $res = $wiki->page()->getFiles($params);

getHistory

Returns information about the latest revisions to a wiki page, in segments of 20 revisions, starting with the latest revision.

The response includes API routes for the next oldest, next newest, and latest revision segments, letting you scroll through page history.

  $wiki = new MediaWiki();
  $params = ['title'=>'Jupiter'];
  $res = $wiki->page()->getHistory($params);

getHistoryCounts

Returns data about a page's history.

  $wiki = new MediaWiki();
  $params = ['title'=>'Jupiter', 'type' => 'edits', 'from' => 384955912, 'to'=>406217369];
  $res = $wiki->page()->getHistoryCounts($params);

revision

get

Returns details for an individual revision.

  $wiki = new MediaWiki();
  $params = ['id'=>1084994628];
  $res = $wiki->revision()->get($params);

compare

Returns data that lets you display a line-by-line comparison of two revisions. Only text-based wiki pages can be compared.

  $wiki = new MediaWiki();
  $params = ['from' => 384955912, 'to' => 406217369];
  $res = $wiki->revision()->compare($params);

search

pages

Searches wiki page titles and contents for the provided search terms, and returns matching pages.

  $wiki = new MediaWiki();
  $params = ['q' => 'Jupiter', 'limit' => 5];
  $res = $wiki->search()->pages($params);

autocompletePageTitle

Searches wiki page titles, and returns matches between the beginning of a title and the provided search terms. You can use this action for a typeahead search that automatically suggests relevant pages by title.

  $wiki = new MediaWiki();
  $params = ['q' => 'Jupiter', 'limit' => 5];
  $res = $wiki->search()->autocompletePageTitle($params);

Wikimedia REST API

Page Content

getPageSummary

  $wiki = new MediaWiki();
  $params = ['title' => 'Jupiter'];
  $res = $wiki->pageContent()->getSummary($params);

getPageTitle

  $wiki = new MediaWiki();
  $params = ['title' => 'Jupiter'];
  $res = $wiki->pageContent()->getTitle($params);

Request parameters validation

For validation the package use spatie/data-transfer-object and ekut/spatie-dto-validators.

Input array $params for each action will be validated with related {...Request} class (extends DataTransferObject). All Request DTOs are strict. It means: if $params contains some unknown property, MediaWikiException will be thrown. See Request classes in code tree.

Error Handling

Any none-successful request (status >= 400) will throw MediaWikiException.

try{
    $res = $wiki->{ResourceName()}->{ActionName($params)}
} catch (\MediawikiSdkPhp\Exceptions\MediaWikiException $e) {
    echo $e->getCode();
    echo $e->getMessage();
    echo $e->getReason();
}

It extends main PHP Exception class and contains one additional method:

  $e->getReason();

Development

Need Docker and Docker-Compose.
