Breaking changes to MediaWiki API #23

Open jimsafley opened 12 years ago

jimsafley commented 12 years ago

A change to the MediaWiki API, described here, may eventually require a small change to Scripto's MediaWiki API client. I'm not sure why the change is described as backwards compatible since it appears to have changed a parameter name in the response. (The description of the changes are pretty confusing, but the commit may shed some light.)

For now the only change that may need to happen is in Scripto::getAllDocuments():

$from = $response['query-continue']['allpages']['apfrom'];
// changes to
$from = $response['query-continue']['allpages']['apcontinue'];

Another change, described here, will eventually require a small change to the client. Again, this change should not be described as backwards compatible.

For now the only change that will need to happen is in Scripto::getRecentChanges():

$start = $response['query-continue']['recentchanges']['rcstart'];
// changes to
$start = $response['query-continue']['recentchanges']['rccontinue'];
