Detailed Description

Represents a title within MediaWiki.

Optionally may contain an interwiki designation or namespace.

Note
This class can fetch various kinds of data from the database; however, it does so inefficiently.
Consider using a TitleValue object instead. TitleValue is more lightweight and does not rely on global state or the database.

◆ getDBkey()

◆ getDefaultMessageText()

MediaWiki\Title\Title::getDefaultMessageText ( )

Get the default (plain) message contents for a page that overrides an interface message key.

Primary use cases:

  • Article:
    • Show default when viewing the page. The Article::getSubstituteContent method displays the default message content, instead of the 'noarticletext' placeholder message normally used.
  • EditPage:
    • Title of edit page. When creating an interface message override, the editor is told they are "Editing the page", instead of "Creating the page". (EditPage::setHeaders)
    • Edit notice. The 'translateinterface' edit notice is shown when creating or editing an interface message override. (EditPage::showIntro)
    • Opening the editor. The contents of the localisation message are used as contents of the editor when creating a new page in the MediaWiki namespace. This simplifies the process for editors when "changing" an interface message by creating an override. (EditPage::getContentObject)
    • Showing a diff. The left-hand side of a diff when an editor is previewing their changes before saving the creation of a page in the MediaWiki namespace. (EditPage::showDiff)
    • Disallowing a save. When attempting to create a MediaWiki-namespace page with the proposed content matching the interface message default, the save is rejected, the same way we disallow blank pages from being created. (EditPage::internalAttemptSave)
  • ApiEditPage:
    • Default content, when using the 'prepend' or 'append' feature.
  • SkinTemplate:
    • Label the create action as "Edit", if the page can be an override.
Returns
string|false

◆ isAlwaysKnown()

Should links to this title be shown as potentially viewable (i.e.

◆ isValid()

MediaWiki\Title\Title::isValid ( )

Returns true if the title is a valid link target, and that it has been properly normalized.

This method checks that the title is syntactically valid, and that the namespace it refers to exists.

Titles constructed using newFromText() or makeTitleSafe() are always valid.

Note
Code that wants to check whether the title can represent a page that can be created and edited should use canExist() instead. Examples of valid titles that cannot "exist" are Special pages, interwiki links, and on-page section links that only have the fragment part set.

◆ makeName()

Parameters
int$nsNumerical representation of the namespace
string$titleThe DB key form the title
string$fragmentThe link fragment (after the "#")
string$interwikiThe interwiki prefix
bool$canonicalNamespaceIf true, use the canonical name for $ns instead of the localized version.
Returns
string The prefixed form of the title

References NS_SPECIAL.

◆ makeTitle()

static MediaWiki\Title\Title::makeTitle (   $ns,
  $title,
  $fragment = '',
  $interwiki = '' 
)
static

Create a new Title from a namespace index and a DB key.

It's assumed that $ns and $title are safe, for instance when they came directly from the database or a special page name, not from user input.

No validation is applied. For convenience, spaces are normalized to underscores, so that e.g. user_text fields can be used directly.

Note
This method may return Title objects that are "invalid" according to the isValid() method. This is usually caused by configuration changes: e.g. a namespace that was once defined is no longer configured, or a character that was once allowed in titles is now forbidden.
Parameters
int$nsThe namespace of the article
string$titleThe unprefixed database key form
string$fragmentThe link fragment (after the "#")
string$interwikiThe interwiki prefix
Returns
Title The new object

static MediaWiki\Title\Title::makeTitleSafe (   $ns,
  $title,

The parameters will be checked for validity, which is a bit slower than makeTitle() but safer for user-provided data.

Parameters
int$nsThe namespace of the article

◆ newFromURL()

static MediaWiki\Title\Title::newFromURL (   $url)
static

THIS IS NOT THE FUNCTION YOU WANT.

Example of right code: $title = Title::newFromText( $request->getText( 'title' ) );

Create a new Title from URL-encoded text. Ensures that the given title's length does not exceed the maximum.

◆ newMainPage()

static MediaWiki\Title\Title::newMainPage ( MessageLocalizer  $localizer = null)
static

Create a new Title for the Main Page.

This uses the 'mainpage' interface message, which could be specified in $wgForceUIMsgAsContentMsg. If that is the case, then calling this method will use the user language, which would involve initialising the session via RequestContext::getMain()->getLanguage(). For session-less endpoints, be sure to pass in a MessageLocalizer (such as your own RequestContext or ResourceLoader Context) to prevent an error.

Note
The Title instance returned by this method is not guaranteed to be a fresh instance. It may instead be a cached instance created previously, with references to it remaining elsewhere.
Parameters
MessageLocalizer | null$localizerAn optional context to use (since 1.34)

Definition at line 2679 of file Title.php.

ContentHandler::canBeUsedOn() should be checked before calling this if there is any doubt regarding the applicability of the content model

Warning
This must only be used if the caller controls the further use of this Title object, to avoid other code unexpectedly using the new value.
Since
1.28
Parameters
string$modelCONTENT_MODEL_XXX constant

Definition at line 1114 of file Title.php.
