ScratchBlocks is an extension to display Scratch, a programming language created by MIT, in wiki blocks.
Installation
[edit]- Download and place the file(s) in a directory called
ScratchBlocks
in yourextensions/
folder. - Add the following code at the bottom of your LocalSettings.php file:
wfLoadExtension( 'ScratchBlocks' );
- Configure languages if needed.
- Done â Navigate to Special:Version on your wiki to verify that the extension is successfully installed.
Configuration
[edit]By default, only English Scratch blocks are rendered. Add more languages like so:
$wgScratchBlocks4Langs = ['ja', 'zh_TW'];
Note that the TW is preceded by an underscore, not a hyphen. This variable is accessible through JS mw.config.get("wgScratchBlocks4Langs")
Usage
[edit]There are two ways to create a snippet of Scratch blocks, which are nearly identical.
- Use <scratchblocks> before and after your code to create a block level element displaying Scratch code.
- To create an inline-block element (that will show in the middle of the paragraph), enclose the code in <sb> tags.
<scratchblocks>
repeat (5)
move (10) steps
end
say [Done!]
</scratchblocks>
You can repeat Scratch code in a <sb>forever</sb> loop!
Both tags take a version
attribute, whose default value is 3. If specified as 2, the tag will render its blocks in Scratch 2.0 style.
