PHPGPL-2.0

NOTE: This is only in the preparation. The goal is to insert LoganDark/lua-lexer and make it available.

This extension for Mediawiki add a Lua lexer for modules provided by the Scribunto extension. This makes it possible to build parse tree for Lua code, to facilitate further lexical analysis in a collaborative environment.

Usage

LuaLexer depends on the Scribunto extension, and provide a parse tree for Lua code.

Download from Github (zip) and place the file(s) in a directory called LuaLexer in your extensions/ folder.
Add the following code at the bottom of your LocalSettings.php:
```
wfLoadExtension( 'LuaLexer' );
```
Done – Navigate to Special:Version on your wiki to verify that the extension is successfully installed.

Development

LuaLexer uses Mediawiki-Vagrant, and an instance can be made quite easily. A more complete setup can be found at the page vagrant.

Make sure you have Vagrant, etc, prepare a development directory, and move to that directory.

Clone Mediawiki

git clone --recursive https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/mediawiki/vagrant .

Add the role unless #? has been merged. (You need git-review to do this.)
```
git review -d ?
```
Run setup.
```
./setup.sh
```
Enable role for LuaLexer. This pulls in the role for Scribunto, which then pulls in additional roles.
```
vagrant roles enable lualexer
```
Start the instance.
```
vagrant up
```
Done.
