API:Data formats/pt-br

Entradas
A API recebe sua entrada através de parâmetros fornecidos pela string de consulta ou de uma entidade POST em application/x-www-form-urlencoded ou formato multipart/form-data. (unlike REST API, the Action API currently does not support application/json input format.) Cada módulo (e cada submodulo $query) tem seu próprio conjunto de parâmetros, listado na documentação em action=help, e pode ser recuperado por meio de.

Codificando
Todas as entradas devem ser válidas em UTF-8, na forma equivalencia Unicode O MediaWiki tentará converter outros formatos. Isso pode resultar em um erro.



Múltiplos parâmetros
Parameters that take multiple values are normally submitted with the values separated using the pipe character, e.g.. If a value contains the pipe character in itself, use U+001F (Unit Separator) as the separator and prefix the value with U+001F, e.g..

Whether a parameter accepts multiple values is listed explicitly in its module documentation.

Boolean parameters
If a boolean parameter is specified in an HTTP request, it is considered true regardless of its value. For a false value, omit the parameter entirely. The best way to specify a true parameter in an HTTP request is to use ; the trailing   ensures the browser or HTTP library does not discard the "empty" someParam.

Timestamps
Os parâmetros que usam valores de data e hora aceitam vários formatos:


 * formato ISO 8601:.
 * MySQL's internal timestamp format :.
 * UNIX timestamp format  ( number of seconds since January 1, 1970 ).
 * UNIX timestamp format  ( number of seconds since January 1, 1970 ).

Timestamps are always output in ISO 8601 format.

Saídas
The standard and default output format in MediaWiki is JSON. All other formats are discouraged.

The output format should always be specified using  with yourformat being one of the following:



Response
Unless specified, all modules allow data output in all generic formats. To simplify debugging, all generic formats have "pretty-print in HTML" alternatives with an  suffix, e.g..



parametros JSON
The following parameters can be used with  and  :



Additional notes
Clients written in PHP should avoid using the PHP format because it is fundamentally insecure. It is maintained for now only due to its popularity. In those cases, the format specified in the  parameter is only used if there's an error.
 * XML and PHP output formats are deprecated but still in use.
 * There are many conversion libraries and online converters to convert JSON responses to other formats—for example, JSON-CSV converts to Comma-Separated Values.
 * Feed modules like Feed Recent Changes override the standard output format, instead using RSS or Atom, as specified by their  parameter.
