Purpose [edit]
Inserts <script> (i.e. Javascript) or <link> (i.e. CSS) code at the bottom of the page's head or within the page's body. Securely inserts arbitrary code to the page's head using <addtohead>.
Features [edit]
- Security: local files (URI) only
- Files must be located in wiki installation home directory/scripts
<addtohead>some html code here</addtohead>- Security:
- Only pages with restricted editing can access 'addtohead' functionality (i.e. manually protect the page).
- Use global variable '$bwScriptsDirectory' to customize scripts directory
Examples [edit]
<addscript src='local URL' />
- (R1) e.g. <addscript src=/sarissa/sarissa type=js />
- (R2) e.g. {{#addscript: src=/styleinfo|pos=head|type=css}}
- R1) Results in
/home/scripts/sarissa/sarissa.jsbeing added to the page's body section provided the said file exists.
- R2) The CSS file
/home/scripts/styleinfo.csswill be added to the page's HEAD section (provided it exists).
Syntax [edit]
Form 1: <addscript src=filename [type={js|css}] [pos={head|body}] />
Form 2: {{#addscript:src=filename [|type={js|css} [|pos={head|body}] }}
If no 'type' field is present, then the extension assumes 'js'.
If no 'pos' field is present, then the extension assumes 'body'
USAGE NOTES [edit]
- When using 'pos=body', it is recommended to use the extension 'ParserCacheControl' in order to better integrate this extension with the standard MW parser cache.
- Use the global variable
$bwScriptsDirectoryto set a new directory for the scripts- e.g.
$bwScriptsDirectory = 'scripts';will result in$IP.'/'.$scriptsto be used.
- e.g.

Consult User Jldupont's page.
- ↑ The most recent release is always available through the extension's PEAR and SVN repositories. This page is not necessarily up-to-date.
- ↑ 2.0 2.1 2.2 Extension:ExtensionManager does not require any modification to LocalSettings.php because ExtensionManager includes the extension.
Note that if PHP code caching is in place (e.g. APC, eAccelerator), then to successfully complete the installation a cache flush might be needed. - ↑ Modifications to
LocalSettings.phpis only necessary if not using Extension:ExtensionManager
TODO [edit]
- internationalize
- Support for customization of scripts directory without touching LocalSettings.php
