Convert all Wikimedia-deployed extensions and skins to use extension registration
Closed, ResolvedPublic

Description

Basic documentation about the extension registration system is at https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension_registration

The convertExtensionToRegistration.php script can be used to create an extension.json file, though it may not work perfectly and could trigger errors. Use the validateRegistrationFile.php script to make sure your script follows the correct schema.

The PHP entry point will need to be kept and there will be duplication of information until Wikimedia config is updated.

Please add me (Legoktm) as a reviewer to conversion patches and feel free to ask me if something is unclear, some documentation is missing, etc.

@Reedy can we have updated stats on what needs to be done? Thanks.

GWToolset was a huge mess last time it was tried.

Translate needs to support older MW (I dunno when this support ends), so can't be converted (though, in theory, we could have a extension.json and not empty out Translate.php... And keep them in sync. There's a few functions that need moving out, which can be done

TMH, CirrusSearch, Collection and FlaggedRevs are rather complex

The FlaggedRevs users should worry about their activation problems which therefore lead that convert task for this extension to be a no-go area.

FR is currently blocked/not being deployed to more wikis because of security bugs afaik, so maybe we should not bother with the conversion.

In this case, wouldn't it be a better idea to fix the security bugs instead?

@MGChecker Maybe it is, but I'm not a (FlaggedRevs) developer so it's not in my hands.

Don't think there are any FlaggedRevs security bugs...

Yes, my bad. I was thinking on Education Program. Sorry.

How many of the WMF deployed extensions we've got left to be converted?

@Reedy If it is not too much asking, can I have a list so I can check if tasks are already created for them? Thanks.

Edit: I see that I made a list at T87875#3772328, but if we have more now we need to canvass their maintainers to just do it :)

TMH and GWToolset are done, just waiting for the train to advance far enough

FYI the latter isn't documented on the extension page.

Four PHP entry points left in production:

require_once "$IP/extensions/LdapAuthentication/LdapAuthentication.php";
require_once "$IP/extensions/OpenStackManager/OpenStackManager.php";

LdapAuthentication (T87934) has a patch that’s been dormant for almost three years. OpenStackManager (T87950) is slated for removal. Wikibase (T88258) is in progress.

Just Wikibase stuff left now ;) (well, when we're deploying again and we can update extension-list and wikitech.php to use wfLoadExtension()

With rOMWCb7baa2a1e84c: extension-list: Load WikibaseClient via JSON now merged, we're down to one PHP i18n load left in production (and 186 JSON ones).

With Wikibase migrated to extension.json in production, this is done 🎉🎉🎉
