Detailed Description

This file is the entry point for all API queries.

It begins by checking whether the API is enabled on this wiki; if not, it informs the user that s/he should set $wgEnableAPI to true and exits. Otherwise, it constructs a new ApiMain using the parameter passed to it as an argument in the URL ('?action=') and with write-enabled set to the value of $wgEnableWriteAPI as specified in LocalSettings.php. It then invokes "execute()" on the ApiMain object instance, which produces output in the format specified in the URL.
