Detailed Description

This abstract class implements many basic API functions, and is the base of all API classes.

The class functions are divided into several areas of functionality:

Module parameters: Derived classes can define getAllowedParams() to specify which parameters to expect, how to parse and validate them.

Self-documentation: code to allow the API to document its own state

Definition at line 37 of file ApiBase.php.

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

ApiBase::__construct	(	ApiMain	$mainModule,
			$moduleName,
			$modulePrefix = `''`
	)

Parameters

ApiMain	$mainModule
string	$moduleName	Name of this module
string	$modulePrefix	Prefix to use for parameter names

ApiBase::addError	(	$msg,
		$code = `null`,
		$data = `null`
	)

Add an error for this module without aborting.

References getErrorFormatter(), and getModulePath().

ApiBase::addWarning	(	$msg,
		$code = `null`,
		$data = `null`
	)

Add a warning for this module.

Users should monitor this section to notice any changes in API. Multiple calls to this function will result in multiple warning messages.

Since: 1.29

Parameters

string \| array \| Message	$msg	See ApiErrorFormatter::addWarning()

ApiBase::execute ( )

abstract

Evaluates the parameters, performs the requested query, and sets up the result.

Concrete implementations of ApiBase must override this method to provide whatever functionality their module offers. Implementations must not produce any output on their own and are not expected to handle any errors.

The execute() method will be invoked directly by ApiMain immediately before the result of the module is output. Aside from the constructor, implementations should assume that no other methods will be called externally on the module before the result is processed.

The result data should be stored in the ApiResult object available through getResult().

ApiBase::explodeMultiValue	(	$value,
		$limit
	)

protected

Split a multi-valued parameter string, like explode()

Since: 1.28

Parameters

Returns: string[]

ApiBase::extractRequestParams ( $parseLimit = true )

Using getAllowedParams(), this function makes an array of the values provided by the user, with key being the name of the variable, and value - validated value from user or default.

limits will not be parsed if $parseLimit is set to false; use this when the max limit is not definitive yet, e.g. when getting revisions.

Parameters

bool $parseLimit True by default

Returns: array

References $params, as, getFinalParams(), and getParameterFromSettings().

ApiBase::getAllowedParams ( )

protected

Returns an array of allowed parameters (parameter name) => (default value) or (parameter name) => (array with PARAM_* constants as keys) Don't call this function directly: use getFinalParams() to allow hooks to modify parameters as needed.

Some derived classes may choose to handle an integer $flags parameter in the overriding methods. Callers of this method can pass zero or more OR-ed flags like GET_VALUES_FOR_HELP.

ApiBase::isReadMode ( )

Returns: bool

Referenced by getHelpFlags().

ApiBase::isWriteMode ( )

Indicates whether this module requires write mode.

This should return true for modules that may require synchronous database writes. Modules that do not need such writes should also not rely on master database access, since only read queries are needed and each master DB is a single point of failure. Additionally, requests that only need replica DBs can be efficiently routed to any datacenter via the Promise-Non-Write-API-Action header.

Returns: bool

ApiBase::lacksSameOriginSecurity ( )

Returns true if the current request breaks the same-origin policy.

static ApiBase::makeMessage	(		$msg,

static

Create a Message from a string or array.

A string is used as a message key. An array has the message key as the first value and message parameters as subsequent values.

Called from ApiHelp before the pieces are joined together and returned.

This exists mainly for ApiMain to add the Permissions and Credits sections. Other modules probably don't need it.

Parameters

	string[]	&$help Array of help data
array	$options	Options passed to ApiHelp::getHelp
array	&$tocData	If a TOC is being generated, this array has keys as anchors in the page and values as for Linker::generateTOC().

ApiBase::needsToken ( )

Returns the token type this module requires in order to execute.

Modules are strongly encouraged to use the core 'csrf' type unless they have specialized security needs. If the token type is not one of the core types, you must use the ApiQueryTokensRegisterTypes hook to register it.

Returning a non-falsey value here will force the addition of an appropriate 'token' parameter in self::getFinalParams(). Also, self::mustBePosted() must return true when tokens are used.

In previous versions of MediaWiki, true was a valid return value. Returning true will generate errors indicating that the API module needs updating.

Returns: string|false

integer: An integer value. See also PARAM_MIN, PARAM_MAX, and PARAM_RANGE_ENFORCE.
limit: An integer or the string 'max'. Default lower limit is 0 (but see PARAM_MIN), and requires that PARAM_MAX and PARAM_MAX2 be specified. Cannot be used with PARAM_ISMULTI.
namespace: An integer representing a MediaWiki namespace. Forces PARAM_ALL = true to support easily specifying all namespaces.
NULL: Any string.
password: Any non-empty string. Input value is private or sensitive. <input type="password"> would be an appropriate HTML form field.
string: Any non-empty string, not expected to be very long or contain newlines. <input type="text"> would be an appropriate HTML form field.
submodule: The name of a submodule of this module, see PARAM_SUBMODULE_MAP.
tags: A string naming an existing, explicitly-defined tag. Should usually be used with PARAM_ISMULTI.
text: Any non-empty string, expected to be very long or contain newlines. <textarea> would be an appropriate HTML form field.
timestamp: A timestamp in any format recognized by MWTimestamp, or the string 'now' representing the current timestamp. Will be returned in TS_MW format.
user: A MediaWiki username or IP. Will be returned normalized but not canonicalized.
