Working with Data[edit | edit source]
Would you like your wiki to be able to display data that is maintained in another system?
The 'external data' extension is something that allows you to connect external data sources to your wiki. The External Data extension allows MediaWiki pages to retrieve, filter, and format structured data from one or more sources. These sources can include external URLs, regular wiki pages, uploaded files, files on the local server, databases or LDAP directories.

Miga is a lightweight framework for displaying an intelligent client-side browsing interface around a set of structured data. It requires administrators to provide the bare minimum amount of information: one or more data tables, in CSV form; as well as schema information in a separate file using a lightweight syntax; and an optional listing of additional pages that the app should display, also using a lightweight syntax.
