Detailed Description

Interface for collecting the results of a parse.

This class is used by Parsoid to record metainformation about a particular bit of parsed content which is extracted during the parse. This includes (for example) table of contents information, and lists of links/categories/templates/images present in the content. Expected cache lifetime of this parsed content is also recorded here, as it is influenced by certain things which may be encountered during the parse.

In core this is implemented by ParserOutput. Core uses ParserOutput to record the rendered HTML (and rendered table of contents HTML), but on the Parsoid side we're going to keep rendered HTML DOM out of this interface (we use PageBundle for this).

Member Function Documentation

◆ addCategory()

Wikimedia\Parsoid\Core\ContentMetadataCollector::addCategory	(		$c,
			$sort = '' )

Add a category, with the given sort key.

Note: Note that titles frequently get stored as array keys, and when that happens in PHP, array_keys() will recover strings like '0' as integers (instead of strings). To avoid corner case bugs, we allow both integers and strings as titles (and sort keys).; In the future, we might consider accepting a LinkTarget (or similar proxy) for $c instead of a string.

Parameters

string \| int	$c	Category name
string \| int	$sort	Sort key (pass the empty string to use the default)

Implemented in Wikimedia\Parsoid\Config\StubMetadataCollector.

◆ addExternalLink()

Wikimedia\Parsoid\Core\ContentMetadataCollector::addExternalLink ( string $url )

Parameters

string $url External link URL

Implemented in Wikimedia\Parsoid\Config\StubMetadataCollector.

◆ addModules()

Wikimedia\Parsoid\Core\ContentMetadataCollector::addModules ( array $modules )

See also: OutputPage::addModules

Parameters

string[] $modules

Implemented in Wikimedia\Parsoid\Config\StubMetadataCollector.

◆ addModuleStyles()

Wikimedia\Parsoid\Core\ContentMetadataCollector::addModuleStyles ( array $modules )

See also: OutputPage::addModuleStyles

Parameters

string[] $modules

Implemented in Wikimedia\Parsoid\Config\StubMetadataCollector.

◆ addWarningMsg()

Wikimedia\Parsoid\Core\ContentMetadataCollector::addWarningMsg	(	string	$msg,
			$args )

Add a warning to the output for this page.

Parameters

string	$msg	The localization message key for the warning
	mixed	...$args Optional arguments for the message

Implemented in Wikimedia\Parsoid\Config\StubMetadataCollector.

◆ appendExtensionData()

Wikimedia\Parsoid\Core\ContentMetadataCollector::appendExtensionData	(	string	$key,
			$value,
		string	$strategy = self::MERGE_STRATEGY_UNION )

Appends arbitrary data to this ParserObject.

This can be used to store some information in the ParserOutput object for later use during page output. The data will be cached along with the ParserOutput object, but unlike data set using setPageProperty(), it is not recorded in the database.

See ::setExtensionData() for more details on rationale and use.

In order to provide for out-of-order/asynchronous/incremental parsing, this method appends values to a set. See ::setExtensionData() for the flag-like version of this method.

Note: Only values which can be array keys are currently supported as values. Be aware that array keys which 'look like' numbers are converted to ints by PHP, and so if you put in "0" as a value you will get [0=>true] out.

Parameters

string	$key	The key for accessing the data. Extensions should take care to avoid conflicts in naming keys. It is suggested to use the extension's name as a prefix.
int \| string	$value	The value to append to the list.
string	$strategy	Merge strategy: only MW_MERGE_STRATEGY_UNION is currently supported and external callers should treat this parameter as

Implemented in Wikimedia\Parsoid\Config\StubMetadataCollector.

◆ appendJsConfigVar()

Wikimedia\Parsoid\Core\ContentMetadataCollector::appendJsConfigVar	(	string	$key,
		string	$value,
		string	$strategy = self::MERGE_STRATEGY_UNION )

Append a value to a variable to be set in mw.config in JavaScript.

In order to ensure the result is independent of the parse order, the value of this key will be an associative array, mapping all of the values set under that key to true. (The array is implicitly ordered in PHP, but you should treat it as unordered.) If you want a non-array type for the key, and can ensure that only a single value will be set, you should use ::setJsConfigVar() instead.

Note: Only values which can be array keys are currently supported as values. Be aware that array keys which 'look like' numbers are converted to ints by PHP, and so if you put in "0" as a value you will get [0=>true] out.

Parameters

string	$key	Key to use under mw.config
string	$value	Value to append to the configuration variable.
string	$strategy	Merge strategy: only MW_MERGE_STRATEGY_UNION is currently supported and external callers should treat this parameter as

Implemented in Wikimedia\Parsoid\Config\StubMetadataCollector.

◆ setExtensionData()

Wikimedia\Parsoid\Core\ContentMetadataCollector::setExtensionData	(	string	$key,
			$value )

Attaches arbitrary data to this content.

This can be used to store some information for later use during page output. The data will be cached along with the parsed page, but unlike data set using setPageProperty(), it is not recorded in the database.

To use setExtensionData() to pass extension information from a hook inside the parser to a hook in the page output, use this in the parser hook:

Example:: $parser->getOutput()->setExtensionData( 'my_ext_foo', '...' );

And then later, in OutputPageParserOutput or similar:

Example:: $output->getExtensionData( 'my_ext_foo' );

Note: Only scalar values, e.g. numbers, strings, arrays or MediaWiki\Json\JsonUnserializable instances are supported as a value. Attempt to set other class instance as a extension data will break ParserCache for the page.; As with ::setJsConfigVar(), setting a page property to multiple conflicting values during the parse is not supported.

Parameters

string	$key	The key for accessing the data. Extensions should take care to avoid conflicts in naming keys. It is suggested to use the extension's name as a prefix. Keys beginning with `mw-` are reserved for use by mediawiki core.
mixed	$value	The value to set. Setting a value to null is equivalent to removing the value.

Implemented in Wikimedia\Parsoid\Config\StubMetadataCollector.

◆ setJsConfigVar()

Wikimedia\Parsoid\Core\ContentMetadataCollector::setJsConfigVar	(	string	$key,
			$value )

Add a variable to be set in mw.config in JavaScript.

In order to ensure the result is independent of the parse order, the values set here must be unique – that is, you can pass the same $key multiple times but ONLY if the $value is identical each time. If you want to collect multiple pieces of data under a single key, use ::appendJsConfigVar().

Parameters

string	$key	Key to use under mw.config
mixed \| null	$value	Value of the configuration variable.

Implemented in Wikimedia\Parsoid\Config\StubMetadataCollector.

◆ setLimitReportData()

Wikimedia\Parsoid\Core\ContentMetadataCollector::setLimitReportData	(	string	$key,
			$value )

Sets parser limit report data for a key.

The key is used as the prefix for various messages used for formatting:

$key: The label for the field in the limit report
$key-value-text: Message used to format the value in the "NewPP limit report" HTML comment. If missing, uses $key-format.
$key-value-html: Message used to format the value in the preview limit report table. If missing, uses $key-format.
$key-value: Message used to format the value. If missing, uses "$1".

Note that all values are interpreted as wikitext, and so should be encoded with htmlspecialchars() as necessary, but should avoid complex HTML for sanity of display in the "NewPP limit report" comment.

Parameters

string	$key	Message key
mixed	$value	Appropriate for Message::params()

Implemented in Wikimedia\Parsoid\Config\StubMetadataCollector.

◆ setOutputFlag()

Wikimedia\Parsoid\Core\ContentMetadataCollector::setOutputFlag	(	string	$name,
		bool	$val = true )

Provides a uniform interface to various boolean flags stored in the content metadata.

Flags internal to MediaWiki core should have names which are constants in ParserOutputFlags. Extensions should use ::setExtensionData() rather than creating new flags with ::setOutputFlag() in order to prevent namespace conflicts.

Parameters

string	$name	A flag name
bool	$val

Implemented in Wikimedia\Parsoid\Config\StubMetadataCollector.

◆ setPageProperty()

Wikimedia\Parsoid\Core\ContentMetadataCollector::setPageProperty	(	string	$name,
			$value )

Set a property to be stored in the page_props database table.

page_props is a key value store indexed by the page ID. This allows the parser to set a property on a page which can then be quickly retrieved given the page ID or via a DB join when given the page title.

page_props is also indexed by numeric value, to allow for efficient "top k" queries of pages wrt a given property.

setPageProperty() is thus used to propagate properties from the parsed page to request contexts other than a page view of the currently parsed article.

Some applications examples:

To implement hidden categories, hiding pages from category listings by storing a property.

Overriding the displayed article title (ContentMetadataCollector::setDisplayTitle()).

To implement image tagging, for example displaying an icon on an image thumbnail to indicate that it is listed for deletion on Wikimedia Commons. This is not actually implemented, yet but would be pretty cool.

Note: Do not use setPageProperty() to set a property which is only used in a context where the content metadata itself is already available, for example a normal page view. There is no need to save such a property in the database since the text is already parsed. You can just hook OutputPageParserOutput and get your data out of the ParserOutput object.

If you are writing an extension where you want to set a property in the parser which is used by an OutputPageParserOutput hook, you have to associate the extension data directly with the ParserOutput object. Since MediaWiki 1.21, you can use setExtensionData() to do this:

Example:: $parser->getOutput()->setExtensionData( 'my_ext_foo', '...' );

And then later, in OutputPageParserOutput or similar:

Example:: $output->getExtensionData( 'my_ext_foo' );

Note: Only scalar values like numbers and strings are supported as a value. Attempt to use an object or array will not work properly with LinksUpdate.; As with ::setJsConfigVar(), setting a page property to multiple conflicting values during the parse is not supported.

Parameters

string	$name
int \| float \| string \| bool \| null	$value

Implemented in Wikimedia\Parsoid\Config\StubMetadataCollector.
