API
MediaWiki ha diverse application programming interfaces (API).
Le tre API più importanti di MediaWiki sono probabilmente:
- the MediaWiki Action API (
api.php), which is a web API that lets you read and write content of a MediaWiki wiki - the MediaWiki PHP API, which can be used to develop extensions for MediaWiki in PHP
- the MediaWiki JavaScript API (mw), which can be used to develop user scripts and gadgets to extend the MediaWiki user interface
Note that the MediaWiki Action API and the MediaWiki JavaScript API are both modular: both can be extended by extensions, so the available API modules can differ from wiki to wiki.[1] While the API modules built into MediaWiki Core are available in most MediaWiki wikis, built-in Action API modules can also be disabled.
Within the context of the MediaWiki website the Action API can be accessed from JavaScript via the mw.Api JavaScript API. (mw.ForeignApi for allowed cross-site requests, e.g. between WMF wikis.) For libraries to access the MediaWiki Action API from your favorite programming language, see API:Client code.
