This page serves to inventory and assess the mix of extensions that are in use for the DCS wiki. Code for "regular" extensions are hosted on Gerrit at the WMF (which is also mirrored to GitHub) with documentation at https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki. Code for the DCS extensions is in the [https://github.com/debtcompliance/mediawiki/tree/master/extensions private Debt Compliance GitHub repo]; and the Organic Design extensions are in the [https://github.com/OrganicDesign/extensions/tree/master/MediaWiki 'MediaWiki' tree of the Organic Design GitHub repo].
== Mime Report ==; RegularIn :: Code for "regular" extensions are hosted on Gerrit at the WMF (which is also mirrored to GitHub) with documentation at https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki. Regular is in quotes because ''all'' extensions modify the behavior and capabilities of MediaWiki. Those that are used by the WMF in their projects or are distributed in the official download should be considered stable, tested, and maintained. Over time, some extensions become part of MediaWiki core; and rarely core features are extracted into extensions.; DCS custom Custom:: Code for the DCS extensions is in the [https://github.com/debtcompliance/mediawiki/tree/master/extensions private Debt Compliance GitHub repo]; Organic Design:: Organic Design extensions, here are in the file counts [https://github.com/OrganicDesign/extensions/tree/master/MediaWiki 'MediaWiki' tree of the Organic Design GitHub repo]. Just because it's an OD extension doesn't mean it's not used by file-type:the wider MediaWiki community. We try to note usage below.

The code (the cookie.js part) is from a project called [https://github.com/js-cookie/js-cookie/blob/master/src/js.cookie.js js-cookie]. So, we could update that code. Or, we could replace it with internal functions so we don't rely on 3rd party code. See the API documentation for [https://doc.wikimedia.org/mediawiki-core/master/js/#!/api/mw.cookie mw.cookie] (Does '''not''' use the $wgCookieSecure configuration variable since 'detect' could not work with
ResourceLoaderStartUpModule; as module cache is not fragmented by protocol.) The mw.cookie (JavaScript) code is syntactically and functionally similar to the server-side cookie API (`[https://doc.wikimedia.org/mediawiki-core/master/php/classWebRequest.html#aa952980c6053a1e23c3ce673eb0f1d6d WebRequest#getCookie]` and `[https://doc.wikimedia.org/mediawiki-core/master/php/classWebResponse.html#a92cfd006677a1d96c3cee8ee3edcccd3 WebResponse#setcookie]`).
https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:Hooks/UserSetCookies is deprecated as of REL1_27, and session-handling extensions should be subclassing CookieSessionProvider. [https[mw://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:$wgSessionProviders |$wgSessionProviders]]
The class creates methods for outputting messages, notices, dates, getting [https[git://gerrit.wikimedia.org/g/mediawiki/core/+/master/includes/content/ContentHandler.php#86 |raw content]].
It loads some javascript (through resource loader). That [https://github.com/debtcompliance/mediawiki/blob/master/extensions/DcsCommon/modules/dcscommon.js javascript] could more easily be maintained as MediaWiki:Common.js? although there may be load order issues. The JS defines like-named methods with varying features. E.g. <blockquote>Check if the passed page title string is in a loan namespace, returns boolean. Note that this function only checks if the namespace is in the list of all loan namespaces, it doesn't do any checks for whether the namespace is in use, or whether the title is in a DCS_TOC article like the DcsCommon::isLoanPage PHP function.</blockquote>
The series of extensions create [https://github.com/debtcompliance/mediawiki/blob/bf8a1096e71d2e997c626b9d6e33b4799ba4a87e/extensions/DcsEmailLink/DcsEmailLink.php#L4 DcsInit()] (in DcsEmailLink), DcsBlockPageAccess(), and DcsReady() hook functions. DcsReady() implementations are different across different classes from Basket to [https://github.com/debtcompliance/mediawiki/blob/93999818fd46c2075638120b12d4f684968daa90/extensions/DcsSingleSignOn/DcsSingleSignOn.php#L42 DcsSingleSignOn].
| The 'common' extension creates a singleton instance of the DcsCommon class that does a bunch of things according to [https://github.com/debtcompliance/mediawiki/wiki/Extensions#dcscommon notes in the wiki]. The permissions shouldn't really be hidden away in the class code. They should simply be in LocalSettings.php. onUserGetRights() is a big function. The 'self:cache' is mostly called in connection with 'isLocal'. Any true caching should just be offloaded to APC and memcache. Although there is no 'dcs' table in the database on dcsTemporary, the [https://github.com/debtcompliance/mediawiki/blob/master/extensions/DcsCommon/DcsCommon.php#L653 setData()] method is used throughout the codebase so should update [https://github.com/debtcompliance/mediawiki/wiki/Extensions#dcscommon wiki] about where this data is stored. '''set/getData is for storing arbitrary DCS data in the dcs db table.

Each (or almost all?) PHP file is backed by a perl file which was the basis for the PHP development. Everything is written twice because it all started back when the best framework for handling MediaWiki jobs was a perl bot framework. Things have changed significantly over the recent past for [[mw:Manual:Job_queue|MediaWiki's job queue]].
According to [https://github.com/debtcompliance/mediawiki/wiki/Extensions#dcsjobadmin the documentation], it allows you to manage jobs. But, I'm wondering how much this is actually used? The job queue should be run automatically by cron, and the administrative user shouldn't have to worry about it really. If there is a usage pattern where job execution is time sensitive, there is a use for an Admin function; but I'm curious about the usage patterns that create large or numerous jobs. Otherwise, set wgJobRunRate to zero, and put it into cron `0 0 * * * root /usr/bin/php /var/www/example.com/www/w/maintenance/runJobs.php > /var/log/runJobs.log 2>&1`
'''These jobs aren't just the standard MW maintenance jobs, they're DCS-specific jobs that need to run in the background as they often need to do intensive manipulation of thousands of articles. The special page is the interface to these jobs allowing parameters to be set for them and stopping/starting/cancelling/pausing them etc, as well as getting feedback on their progress or errors etc.'''
