Extension:BugzillaView

The BugzillaView extension will display BugZilla bugs directly inside your pages.

Configure interwiki link
Setup an interwiki link for your BugZilla installation:

Grant access to BugZilla
Because the BugzillaView extension needs access to the BugZilla's  database table, you have to configure the credentials later in. There are 3 ways to get access to BugZilla's database:


 * If the MediaWiki and BugZilla database are on the same host, you might give the MediaWiki user read-access to the BugZilla database (RECOMMENDED)
 * e.g. MySQL command
 * where  matches   in LocalSettings.php
 * Create a new user just for BugzillaView
 * e.g. MySQL command
 * Use the existing BugZilla database credentials

Configuration parameters
Here are the defaults, you might overwrite them in your LocalSettings.php file:

$wgBugzillaView['interwiki']         = 'bugzilla';    // name of the interwiki link $wgBugzillaView['displayDescription'] = TRUE;         // should bug descriptions be displayed $wgBugzillaView['dbDriver']          = $wgDBtype;     // database driver for PDO $wgBugzillaView['dbHost']            = $wgDBserver;   // database hostname or IP address $wgBugzillaView['dbName']            = 'bugzilla';    // database name $wgBugzillaView['dbUsername']        = $wgDBuser;     // database username $wgBugzillaView['dbPassword']        = $wgDBpassword; // database password $wgBugzillaView['dbTablePrefix']     = "";            // database prefix

You see, if your Bugzilla installation meets the following requirements, you don't have to configure anything and it should work out of the box:
 * The BugZilla database is installed on the same host as the MediaWiki database
 * The BugZilla database is called
 * The BugZilla database / tables don't uses prefixes
 * The MediaWiki DB user has read-access to BugZillas  table

Usage
To display a BugZilla bug inside your wiki site, just use the interwiki link.

Here are some examples, assuming we use  as interwiki prefix:

Format / Style
You might wanna change the style / format of the bugs and how they are displayed. Just edit the  file in the BugzillaView extension directory.
