Member Function Documentation

◆ describeCredentials()

MediaWiki\Auth\PasswordAuthenticationRequest::describeCredentials ( )

Describe the credentials represented by this request.

This is used on requests returned by AuthenticationProvider::getAuthenticationRequests() for ACTION_LINK and ACTION_REMOVE and for requests returned in AuthenticationResponse::$linkRequest to create useful user interfaces.

Returns

Message[] with the following keys:

provider: A Message identifying the service that provides the credentials, e.g. the name of the third party authentication service.
account: A Message identifying the credentials themselves, e.g. the email address used with the third party authentication service.

Reimplemented from MediaWiki\Auth\AuthenticationRequest.

Reimplemented in MediaWiki\Auth\PasswordDomainAuthenticationRequest.

◆ getFieldInfo()

MediaWiki\Auth\PasswordAuthenticationRequest::getFieldInfo ( )

Fetch input field info.

The field info is an associative array mapping field names to info arrays. The info arrays have the following keys:

type: (string) Type of input. Types and equivalent HTML widgets are:
- string: <input type="text">
- password: <input type="password">
- select: <select>
- checkbox: <input type="checkbox">
- multiselect: More a grid of checkboxes than <select multi>
- button: <input type="submit"> (uses 'label' as button text)
- hidden: Not visible to the user, but needs to be preserved for the next request
- null: No widget, just display the 'label' message.
options: (array) Maps option values to Messages for the 'select' and 'multiselect' types.
value: (string) Value (for 'null' and 'hidden') or default value (for other types).
label: (Message) Text suitable for a label in an HTML form
help: (Message) Text suitable as a description of what the field is
optional: (bool) If set and truthy, the field may be left empty
sensitive: (bool) If set and truthy, the field is considered sensitive. Code using the request should avoid exposing the value of the field.
skippable: (bool) If set and truthy, the client is free to hide this field from the user to streamline the workflow. If all fields are skippable (except possibly a single button), no user interaction is required at all.

All AuthenticationRequests are populated from the same data, so most of the time you'll want to prefix fields names with something unique to the extension/provider (although in some cases sharing the field with other requests is the right thing to do, e.g. for a 'password' field).
