Adding new parameters: AllowOnlyLinksToPages and AllowLinkExpansion

[pwolny]

Additional options that allow for example to cleanly graph relations between page list results generated by inline queries of Semantic Mediawiki. The normal behavior from SMW example provided in readme makes graph hard to read:

AllowOnlyLinksToPages restricts the graph to nodes from page list, for example when set to true:

AllowLinkExpansion allows or suppresses adding new nodes to graph by holding nodes:

All images above were generated by following code and by changing the new parameters

{{#network:
{{#ask: [[NextPage::+]]
| format=list
| headers=show
| link=none
| order=ascending
| merge=true
|limit=50
|searchlabel=|
|sep={{!}}
|template=ReturnTemplatesFirstArgument
|outro={{!}}
|intro={{!}}
}}
| class = col-lg-3 mt-0
|AllowOnlyLinksToPages = true
|AllowLinkExpansion = false
|enableDisplayTitle = true
}}

Some translation files and readme with an example were updated.

Probably needs code review and maybe new variable names could be made more consistent with the rest of the code.

Modifications were tested and were working on a debian system with: MediaWiki 1.37.4 PHP 7.4.30 (apache2handler) MariaDB 10.5.15-MariaDB-0+deb11u1 ICU 67.1 LuaSandbox 3.0.3 Lua 5.1.5 Pygments 2.10.0 Semantic Forms Select 4.0.0-alpha Semantic MediaWiki 4.0.2 Semantic Result Formats 4.0.1

Hey, thanks a lot for the development. This is exactly what I was looking for. Unfortunately, I was not able to reproduce this example. When I use AllowOnlyLinksToPages = true, no links (pages+external) appear in the graph. If I use AllowOnlyLinksToPages = false, all links appear. I have replaced the Network folder in extensions with your files and restarted everything. Is anything else required?

Nothing comes to mind, except the template for the SMW ask query (Template:ReturnTemplatesFirstArgument). Basically it contains just {{{1|}}} and returns first parameter as text. In the example the query part

{{#ask: [[NextPage::+]]
| format=list
| headers=show
| link=none
| order=ascending
| merge=true
|limit=50
|searchlabel=|
|sep={{!}}
|template=ReturnTemplatesFirstArgument
|outro={{!}}
|intro={{!}}
}}

returns: |Test8|Test1|Test10|Test11|Test12|Test13|Test14|Test15|Test16|Test2|Test3|Test4|Test5|Test6|Test7|Test9|

Did you try maybe something simpler like this:

{{#network:Test1|Test2|Test3|Test4|Test5
| class = col-lg-3 mt-0
|AllowOnlyLinksToPages = true
|AllowLinkExpansion = false
|enableDisplayTitle = true
}}

Are there any differences between Preview and saved page?

Also the comparison between page list and page name check seems to be case sensitive (check if page list contains exact page titles).

Hey there, thanks a lot for the fast reply! Now it works fine. After restarting the VM and resolving a copy-mistake (without error message) it works :)
