MediaWiki-Docker/Extension/VisualEditor

This page instructs you to install Extension:VisualEditor inside MediaWiki-Docker.

Follow the Quickstart instructions at MediaWiki-Docker page. Once MediaWiki is running and available at http://localhost:8080, then continue with instructions on this page.

All commands should be run in the directory where you installed MediaWiki. All mentioned files are also located there.

wfLoadExtension( 'VisualEditor' );

$PARSOID_INSTALL_DIR = 'vendor/wikimedia/parsoid'; # bundled copy
#$PARSOID_INSTALL_DIR = '/my/path/to/git/checkout/of/Parsoid';

// For developers: ensure Parsoid is executed from $PARSOID_INSTALL_DIR,
// (not the version included in mediawiki-core by default)
// Must occur *before* wfLoadExtension()
if ( $PARSOID_INSTALL_DIR !== 'vendor/wikimedia/parsoid' ) {
    AutoLoader::$psr4Namespaces += [
        // Keep this in sync with the "autoload" clause in
        // $PARSOID_INSTALL_DIR/composer.json
        'Wikimedia\\Parsoid\\' => "$PARSOID_INSTALL_DIR/src",
    ];
