Developer's Setup Guide?

5
Lens0021 (talkcontribs)

Hi, I am looking for how to set up a developer environment for ManageWiki, but sadly, it depends on CreateWiki and I couldn't find the developer guide for neither.

Is there any guide for developer? I am using mwcli.

My attempts until now:

The execution of install.php was successful, but I failed to run update.php:

[c9317277f222d48e00cec03c] [no req]   Wikimedia\Rdbms\DBQueryError: A database query error has occurred. Did you forget to run your application's database schema updater after upgrading or after adding a new extension?

Please see https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Special:MyLanguage/Manual:Upgrading and https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Special:MyLanguage/Manual:How_to_debug for more information.

Then, I tried to use globals.php which is for the workflow of CI by append require_once "$IP/extensions/CreateWiki/.github/workflows/globals.php"; to LocalSettings.php, but it still failed:

…

I tried combining removing SetupAfterCacheHook with changing MW_DB for mwcli to wikidb. But the run of the update script was failed: (Reference: Cli/ref/mw_docker_mediawiki_exec#Examples)

$ mwdev dev mw exec -- MW_DB=wikidb php maintenance/update.php --quick
Is your database running and wiki database created / installed?
$ mwdev dev mw exec -- MW_DB=wikidb php maintenance/update.php --dbname=wikidb --quick
Is your database running and wiki database created / installed?

It seems to be an issue of mwcli, though.

OK, here is the description of my successful, hacky way to set up CreateWiki as just a dependency of ManageWiki:

  1. Install and setup mwcli (I am using a development version, v0.8.1-7-g69d1c06)
  2. Clone CreateWiki to ${MEDIAWIKI_VOLUMES_CODE}/extensions/CreateWiki
  3. Create MySQL instance and Install vanilla MediaWiki by executing mwdev dev mysql create && mwdev dev mw create && mwdev dev mw install --dbtype mysql
  4. Append wfLoadExtension( 'CreateWiki' ); and $wgGroupPermissions['sysop']['createwiki'] = true; to your LocalSettings.php which is auto-generated in the previous step.
  5. Append require_once "$IP/extensions/CreateWiki/.github/workflows/globals.php"; too.
  6. Modify globals.php (see below)
  7. Remove SetupAfterCacheHook from extensions/CreateWiki/extension.json
  8. Run mwdev dev mw exec -- php maintenance/update.php --quick
  9. Restore SetupAfterCacheHook.
  10. Run again mwdev dev mw exec -- php maintenance/update.php --quick
Modified version of globals.php
<?php

define( 'MW_DB', 'default' );

require_once "$IP/extensions/CreateWiki/includes/WikiInitialise.php";
$wi = new WikiInitialise();

$wi->setVariables(
	$wgCacheDirectory,
	[
		''
	],
	[
		'default.mediawiki.mwdd.localhost' => ''
	]
);

$wi->config->settings += [
	'cwClosed' => [
		'default' => false,
	],
	'cwInactive' => [
		'default' => false,
	],
	'cwPrivate' => [
		'default' => false,
	],
	'cwExperimental' => [
		'default' => false,
	],
];

$wgCreateWikiGlobalWiki = MW_DB;
$wgCreateWikiDatabase = MW_DB;
$wgCreateWikiCacheDirectory = $wgCacheDirectory;

$wgHooks['MediaWikiServices'][] = 'wfOnMediaWikiServices';

function wfOnMediaWikiServices( MediaWiki\MediaWikiServices $services ) {
	global $wgServer;
	try {
		$dbw = wfGetDB( DB_PRIMARY );

		$dbw->insert(
			'cw_wikis',
			[
				'wiki_dbname' => 'default',
				'wiki_dbcluster' => 'c1',
				'wiki_sitename' => 'TestWiki',
				'wiki_language' => 'en',
				'wiki_private' => (int)0,
				'wiki_creation' => $dbw->timestamp(),
				'wiki_category' => 'uncategorised',
				'wiki_closed' => (int)0,
				'wiki_deleted' => (int)0,
				'wiki_locked' => (int)0,
				'wiki_inactive' => (int)0,
				'wiki_inactive_exempt' => (int)0,
				'wiki_url' => 'http://default.mediawiki.mwdd.localhost:80',
			]
		);
	} catch ( Wikimedia\Rdbms\DBQueryError $e ) {
		return;
	}
}

$wi->readCache();
$wi->config->extractAllGlobals( $wi->dbname );
$wgConf = $wi->config;

have you managed to make this work? are there some required settings?

right after installation i got


Error 1046: No database selected

Function: Wikimedia\Rdbms\Database::select

Query: SELECT wiki_dbcluster,wiki_dbname,wiki_deleted,wiki_url,wiki_sitename FROM `cw_wikis`


after adding $wgCreateWikiDatabase = $wgDBname; to configuration file, I get a different error


MWException: Wiki 'db_wiki' can not be found.


this is literally a database with cw_ tables


am I missing something?

Can you help me?

I have the same problem. Who knows how to solve?

Lens0021 (talkcontribs)

Setting $wgCreateWikiDatabase and $wgCreateWikiCacheDirectory = $wgCacheDirectory; works for me.

Didn't. Sorry.

You do not have permission to create wikis, for the following reason: You are not allowed to execute the action you have requested.
