Login: Support both, main-accounts and bot-accounts #67

Closed Hasenlaeufer closed 7 years ago

Hasenlaeufer commented 7 years ago

In addition to issue #65. Like in past, LrMediaWiki should support both kinds of credentials: main-accounts and bot-accounts. To avoid deprecated API-calls, actual login-methods need to be used. Without changing the login-API-calls, the login will/might fail in future. Solution: Logins with main-accounts should use login-method "clientlogin", logins with bot-accounts should use login-method "login". See API:Login for details and this related discussion. Should be labeled an anhancement.
