◆ getTempPlaceholder()

MediaWiki\User\UserNameUtils::getTempPlaceholder ( )

Get a placeholder name for a temporary user before serial acquisition.

Since
1.39
Returns
string

Definition at line 391 of file UserNameUtils.php.

◆ isCreatable()

MediaWiki\User\UserNameUtils::isCreatable ( string $name)

Usernames which fail to pass this function will be blocked from new account registrations, but may be used internally either by batch processes or by user accounts which have already been created.

Additional preventions may be added here rather than in isValid() to avoid disrupting existing accounts.

Parameters
string$nameString to match
Returns
bool

Definition at line 227 of file UserNameUtils.php.

◆ isIP()

MediaWiki\User\UserNameUtils::isIP ( string $name)

Does the string match an anonymous IP address?

This function exists for username validation, in order to reject usernames which are similar in form to IP addresses. Strings such as 300.300.300.300 will return true because it looks like an IP address, despite not being strictly valid.

We match "\\d{1,3}\\.\\d{1,3}\\.\\d{1,3}\\.xxx" as an anonymous IP address because the usemod software would "cloak" anonymous IP addresses like this, if we allowed accounts like this to be created new users could get the old edits of these anonymous users.

This does //not// match IPv6 ranges (T239527)

Parameters
string$nameName to check
Returns
bool

◆ isUsable()

MediaWiki\User\UserNameUtils::isUsable ( string $name)

Usernames which fail to pass this function will be blocked from user login and new account registrations, but may be used internally by batch processes.

If an account already exists in this form, login will be blocked by a failure to pass this function.

Parameters
string$nameName to match
Returns
bool

Definition at line 189 of file UserNameUtils.php.

◆ isValid()

MediaWiki\User\UserNameUtils::isValid ( string $name)

Is the input a valid username?

Checks if the input is a valid username, we don't want an empty string, an IP address, anything that contains slashes (would mess up subpages), is longer than the maximum allowed username size or doesn't begin with a capital letter.
