Definition at line 133 of file LinkRenderer.php.

◆ getLinkClasses()

MediaWiki\Linker\LinkRenderer::getLinkClasses ( $target )

Returns CSS classes to add to a known link.

Note that most CSS classes set on wikilinks are actually handled elsewhere (e.g. in makeKnownLink() or in LinkHolderArray).

Parameters

LinkTarget | PageReference $target Page that will be visited when the user clicks on the link.

Returns: string CSS class

Definition at line 608 of file LinkRenderer.php.

◆ isForComment()

MediaWiki\Linker\LinkRenderer::isForComment ( )

True when the links will be rendered in an edit summary or log comment.

◆ makeBrokenLink()

MediaWiki\Linker\LinkRenderer::makeBrokenLink	(		$target,
			$text = null,
		array	$extraAttribs = [],
		array	$query = [] )

Make a link that's styled as if the target page doesn't exist (a "red link").

Parameters

LinkTarget \| PageReference	$target	Page that will be visited when the user clicks on the link.
string \| HtmlArmor \| null	$text	Text that the user can click on to visit the link.
array	$extraAttribs	Attributes you would like to add to the tag. For example, if you would like to add title="Text when hovering!", you would set this to [ 'title' => 'Text when hovering!' ]
array	$query	Parameters you would like to add to the URL. For example, if you would like to add ?redirect=no&debug=1, you would set this to [ 'redirect' => 'no', 'debug' => '1' ]

Returns: string

◆ makeExternalLink()

Since: 1.43

◆ makeKnownLink()

MediaWiki\Linker\LinkRenderer::makeKnownLink	(		$target,
			$text = null,
		array	$extraAttribs = [],
		array	$query = [] )

Make a link that's styled as if the target page exists (usually a "blue link", although the styling might depend on e.g.

whether the target is a redirect).

This will result in a DB lookup if the title wasn't cached yet. If you want to avoid that, and don't care about matching the exact styling of links within page content, you can use makePreloadedLink() instead.

Parameters

LinkTarget \| PageReference	$target	Page that will be visited when the user clicks on the link.
string \| HtmlArmor \| null	$text	Text that the user can click on to visit the link.
array	$extraAttribs	Attributes you would like to add to the tag. For example, if you would like to add title="Text when hovering!", you would set this to [ 'title' => 'Text when hovering!' ]
array	$query	Parameters you would like to add to the URL. For example, if you would like to add ?redirect=no&debug=1, you would set this to [ 'redirect' => 'no', 'debug' => '1' ]

Returns: string HTML

◆ makeLink()

MediaWiki\Linker\LinkRenderer::makeLink	(		$target,
			$text = null,
		array	$extraAttribs = [],
		array	$query = [] )

Render a wikilink.

Will call makeKnownLink() or makeBrokenLink() as appropriate.

Parameters

LinkTarget \| PageReference	$target	Page that will be visited when the user clicks on the link.
string \| HtmlArmor \| null	$text	Text that the user can click on to visit the link.
array	$extraAttribs	Attributes you would like to add to the tag. For example, if you would like to add title="Text when hovering!", you would set this to [ 'title' => 'Text when hovering!' ]
array	$query	Parameters you would like to add to the URL. For example, if you would like to add ?redirect=no&debug=1, you would set this to [ 'redirect' => 'no', 'debug' => '1' ]

Returns: string HTML

Definition at line 181 of file LinkRenderer.php.

◆ makePreloadedLink()

MediaWiki\Linker\LinkRenderer::makePreloadedLink	(		$target,
			$text = null,
			$classes = '',
		array	$extraAttribs = [],
		array	$query = [] )

Make a link that's styled as if the target page exists (a "blue link"), with a specified class attribute.

Usually you should use makeLink() or makeKnownLink() instead, which will select the CSS classes automatically. Use this method if the exact styling doesn't matter and you want to ensure no extra DB lookup happens, e.g. for links generated by the skin.

Parameters

LinkTarget \| PageReference	$target	Page that will be visited when the user clicks on the link.
string \| HtmlArmor \| null	$text	Text that the user can click on to visit the link.
string	$classes	CSS classes to add
array	$extraAttribs	Attributes you would like to add to the tag. For example, if you would like to add title="Text when hovering!", you would set this to [ 'title' => 'Text when hovering!' ]
array	$query	Parameters you would like to add to the URL. For example, if you would like to add ?redirect=no&debug=1, you would set this to [ 'redirect' => 'no', 'debug' => '1' ]

Returns: string

◆ makeRedirectHeader()

MediaWiki\Linker\LinkRenderer::makeRedirectHeader	(	Language	$lang,
		Title	$target,
		bool	$forceKnown = false,
		bool	$addLinkTag = false )

Return the HTML for the top of a redirect page.

Chances are you should just be using the ParserOutput from WikitextContent::getParserOutput (which will have this header added automatically) instead of calling this for redirects.

If creating your own redirect-alike, please use return value of this method to set the 'core:redirect-header' extension data field in your ParserOutput, rather than concatenating HTML directly. See WikitextContentHandler::fillParserOutput().

Since: 1.41

Parameters

Language	$lang
Title	$target	Destination to redirect
bool	$forceKnown	Should the image be shown as a bluelink regardless of existence?
bool	$addLinkTag	Should a <link> tag be added?

Returns: string Containing HTML with redirect link
