It would be a very nice thing, to make it possible to read/import a message/page/article and be able to parse this.

Example:

$json=read('Mediakwiki:TextBasedDataInJsonFormat');

$array=json_decode($json,true);

foreach($array as $item){

// do very nice things

}

Can anyone offer a transclude example? -thx

thx. Seems the purpose of `transclude` is to output whatever you want to output to the host page. I guess transclude code would live in a template, correct?

I'm looking for the opposite: a php way to pull in a rendered page.

cheers

Do you mean https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:Parameters_to_index.php#render ?

Or maybe https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/API:Parsing_wikitext#parse

thx, i'll be reading those!

{{PAGENAME}}<br /> {{#phptag:echo str_word_count("{{PAGENAME}}");}}

sometimes it gives strange results:

častá procházka
3

šumící les
3

(The page name has two words but the function gives out 3?)
