This is documentation how to set up MediaWiki extension groups using the simple text configuration file. It is useful if you have hundreds of extensions.

This configuration goes to the LocalSettings.php in the MediaWiki directory.

require "$IP/extensions/Translate/Translate.php";

$wgHooks['TranslatePostInitGroups'][] = function ( &$list, &$deps, &$autoload ) {
	$def = "/path/to/mediawiki-extensions.txt";
	$path = '%GROUPROOT%/extensions/';

	$parser = new PremadeMediawikiExtensionGroups( $def, $path );
	$parser->register( $list, $deps, $autoload );

	return true;
};

Configuration file

Here is an example configuration file:

Simple Extension

Complex Extension
desc = Some text here.
ignored = sidebar, robots.txt
optional = grouppage-recursive-export
prefix = wmf- | sidebar, grouppage-Staff, group-Staff, group-Staff-member
aliasfile = ComplexExtension.alias.php
magicfile = ComplexExtension.magic.php

The general syntax is: Name of the extension followed by list of keys and values and one empty line before next extension.

ExtensionName - Name of the extension with spaces removed.
