3 This document describes how event hooks work in MediaWiki; how to add hooks for
4 an event; and how to run hooks for an event.
5
6 ==Glossary==
7
8 event
9 Something that happens with the wiki. For example: a user logs in. A wiki
10 page is saved. A wiki page is deleted. Often there are two events
11 associated with a single action: one before the code is run to make the
12 event happen, and one after. Each event has a name, preferably in
13 CamelCase. For example, 'UserLogin', 'PageContentSave',
14 'PageContentSaveComplete', 'ArticleDelete'.
15
16 hook
17 A clump of code and data that should be run when an event happens. This can
18 be either a function and a chunk of data, or an object and a method.
19
20 hook function
21 The function part of a hook.
22
23 ==Rationale==
24
25 Hooks allow us to decouple optionally-run code from code that is run for
26 everyone. It allows MediaWiki hackers, third-party developers and local
27 administrators to define code that will be run at certain points in the mainline
28 code, and to modify the data run by that mainline code. Hooks can keep mainline
29 code simple, and make it easier to write extensions. Hooks are a principled
30 alternative to local patches.
31
32 Consider, for example, two options in MediaWiki. One reverses the order of a
33 title before displaying the article; the other converts the title to all
34 uppercase letters. Currently, in MediaWiki code, we would handle this as follows
35 (note: not real code, here):
36
37 function showAnArticle( $article ) {
38 global $wgReverseTitle, $wgCapitalizeTitle;
39
40 if ( $wgReverseTitle ) {
41 wfReverseTitle( $article );
42 }
43
44 if ( $wgCapitalizeTitle ) {
45 wfCapitalizeTitle( $article );
46 }
47
48 # code to actually show the article goes here
49 }
50
51 An extension writer, or a local admin, will often add custom code to the
52 function -- with or without a global variable. For example, someone wanting
53 email notification when an article is shown may add:
54
55 function showAnArticle( $article ) {
56 global $wgReverseTitle, $wgCapitalizeTitle, $wgNotifyArticle;
57
58 if ( $wgReverseTitle ) {
59 wfReverseTitle( $article );
60 }
61
62 if ( $wgCapitalizeTitle ) {
63 wfCapitalizeTitle( $article );
64 }
65
66 # code to actually show the article goes here
67
68 if ( $wgNotifyArticle ) {
69 wfNotifyArticleShow( $article );
70 }
71 }
72
73 Using a hook-running strategy, we can avoid having all this option-specific
74 stuff in our mainline code. Using hooks, the function becomes:
75
76 function showAnArticle( $article ) {
77 if ( Hooks::run( 'ArticleShow', [ &$article ] ) ) {
78 # code to actually show the article goes here
79
80 Hooks::run( 'ArticleShowComplete', [ &$article ] );
81 }
82 }
83
84 We've cleaned up the code here by removing clumps of weird, infrequently used
85 code and moving them off somewhere else. It's much easier for someone working
86 with this code to see what's _really_ going on, and make changes or fix bugs.
87
88 In addition, we can take all the code that deals with the little-used
89 title-reversing options (say) and put it in one place. Instead of having little
90 title-reversing if-blocks spread all over the codebase in showAnArticle,
91 deleteAnArticle, exportArticle, etc., we can concentrate it all in an extension
92 file:
93
94 function onArticleShow( &$article ) {
95 # ...
96 }
97
98 function onArticleDelete( &$article ) {
99 # ...
100 }
101
102 function onArticleExport( &$article ) {
103 # ...
104 }
105
106 General practice is to have a dedicated file for functions activated by hooks,
107 which functions named 'onHookName'. In the example above, the file
108 'ReverseHooks.php' includes the functions that should be activated by the
109 'ArticleShow', 'ArticleDelete', and 'ArticleExport' hooks. The 'extension.json'
110 file with the extension's registration just has to add its hook functions
111 to the appropriate events:
112
113 "Hooks": {
114 "ArticleShow": "ReverseHooks:onArticleShow",
115 "ArticleDelete": "ReverseHooks::onArticleDelete",
116 "ArticleExport": "ReverseHooks::onArticleExport"
117 }
118
119 Having all this code related to the title-reversion option in one place means
120 that it's easier to read and understand; you don't have to do a grep-find to see
121 where the $wgReverseTitle variable is used, say.
122
123 If the code is well enough isolated, it can even be excluded when not used --
124 making for some slight savings in memory and load-up performance at runtime.
125 Admins who want to have all the reversed titles can add:
126
127 require_once 'extensions/ReverseTitle.php';
128
129 ...to their LocalSettings.php file; those of us who don't want or need it can
130 just leave it out.
131
132 The extensions don't even have to be shipped with MediaWiki; they could be
133 provided by a third-party developer or written by the admin him/herself.
134
135 ==Writing hooks==
136
137 A hook is a chunk of code run at some particular event. It consists of:
138
139 * a function with some optional accompanying data, or
140 * an object with a method and some optional accompanying data.
141
142 Hooks are registered by adding them to the global $wgHooks array for a given
143 event. All the following are valid ways to define hooks:
144
145 $wgHooks['EventName'][] = 'someFunction'; # function, no data
146 $wgHooks['EventName'][] = [ 'someFunction', $someData ];
147 $wgHooks['EventName'][] = [ 'someFunction' ]; # weird, but OK
148
149 $wgHooks['EventName'][] = $object; # object only
150 $wgHooks['EventName'][] = [ $object, 'someMethod' ];
151 $wgHooks['EventName'][] = [ $object, 'someMethod', $someData ];
152 $wgHooks['EventName'][] = [ $object ]; # weird but OK
153
154 When an event occurs, the function (or object method) will be called with the
155 optional data provided as well as event-specific parameters. The above examples
156 would result in the following code being executed when 'EventName' happened:
157
158 # function, no data
159 someFunction( $param1, $param2 )
160 # function with data
161 someFunction( $someData, $param1, $param2 )
162
163 # object only
164 $object->onEventName( $param1, $param2 )
165 # object with method
166 $object->someMethod( $param1, $param2 )
167 # object with method and data
168 $object->someMethod( $someData, $param1, $param2 )
169
170 Note that when an object is the hook, and there's no specified method, the
171 default method called is 'onEventName'. For different events this would be
172 different: 'onArticleSave', 'onUserLogin', etc.
173
174 The extra data is useful if we want to use the same function or object for
175 different purposes. For example:
176
177 $wgHooks['PageContentSaveComplete'][] = [ 'ircNotify', 'TimStarling' ];
178 $wgHooks['PageContentSaveComplete'][] = [ 'ircNotify', 'brion' ];
179
180 This code would result in ircNotify being run twice when an article is saved:
181 once for 'TimStarling', and once for 'brion'.
182
183 Hooks can return three possible values:
184
185 * No return value (or null): the hook has operated successfully. Previously,
186 true was required. This is the default since MediaWiki 1.23.
187 * "some string": an error occurred; processing should stop and the error
188 should be shown to the user
189 * false: the hook has successfully done the work necessary and the calling
190 function should skip
191
192 The last result would be for cases where the hook function replaces the main
193 functionality. For example, if you wanted to authenticate users to a custom
194 system (LDAP, another PHP program, whatever), you could do:
195
196 $wgHooks['UserLogin'][] = [ 'ldapLogin', $ldapServer ];
197
198 function ldapLogin( $username, $password ) {
199 # log user into LDAP
200 return false;
201 }
202
203 Returning false makes less sense for events where the action is complete, and
204 will normally be ignored.
205
206 Note that none of the examples made use of create_function() as a way to
207 attach a function to a hook. This is known to cause problems (notably with
208 Special:Version), and should be avoided when at all possible.
209
210 ==Using hooks==
211
212 A calling function or method uses the Hooks::run() function to run the hooks
213 related to a particular event, like so:
214
215 class Article {
216 # ...
217 function protect() {
218 global $wgUser;
219
220 // Avoid PHP 7.1 warning from passing $this by reference
221 $article = $this;
222
223 if ( Hooks::run( 'ArticleProtect', [ &$article, &$wgUser ] ) ) {
224 # protect the article
225 Hooks::run( 'ArticleProtectComplete', [ &$article, &$wgUser ] );
226 }
227 }
228 }
229
230 Hooks::run() returns true if the calling function should continue processing
231 (the hooks ran OK, or there are no hooks to run), or false if it shouldn't (an
232 error occurred, or one of the hooks handled the action already). Checking the
233 return value matters more for "before" hooks than for "complete" hooks.
234
235 Note that hook parameters are passed in an array; this is a necessary
236 inconvenience to make it possible to pass reference values (which can be changed)
237 by the hook callback.
238

449
450 'ApiQueryBaseAfterQuery': Called for (some) API query modules after the
451 database query has returned. An API query module wanting to use this hook
452 should see the ApiQueryBase::select() and ApiQueryBase::processRow()
453 documentation.
454 $module: ApiQueryBase module in question
455 $result: ResultWrapper|bool returned from the IDatabase::select()
456 &$hookData: array that was passed to the 'ApiQueryBaseBeforeQuery' hook and
457 will be passed to the 'ApiQueryBaseProcessRow' hook, intended for inter-hook
458 communication.
459
460 'ApiQueryBaseBeforeQuery': Called for (some) API query modules before a
461 database query is made. WARNING: It would be very easy to misuse this hook and
462 break the module! Any joins added *must* join on a unique key of the target
463 table unless you really know what you're doing. An API query module wanting to
464 use this hook should see the ApiQueryBase::select() and
465 ApiQueryBase::processRow() documentation.
466 $module: ApiQueryBase module in question
467 &$tables: array of tables to be queried
468 &$fields: array of columns to select

474
475 'ApiQueryBaseProcessRow': Called for (some) API query modules as each row of
476 the database result is processed. Return false to stop processing the result
477 set. An API query module wanting to use this hook should see the

489
490 'APIQueryInfoTokens': DEPRECATED since 1.24! Use ApiQueryTokensRegisterTypes
491 instead. Use this hook to add custom tokens to prop=info. Every token has an
492 action, which will be used in the intoken parameter and in the output
493 (actiontoken="..."), and a callback function which should return the token, or
494 false if the user isn't allowed to obtain it. The prototype of the callback
495 function is func($pageid, $title), where $pageid is the page ID of the page the
496 token is requested for and $title is the associated Title object. In the hook,
497 just add your callback to the $tokenFunctions array and return true (returning
498 false makes no sense).
499 &$tokenFunctions: [ action => callback ]
500
501 'APIQueryRecentChangesTokens': DEPRECATED since 1.24! Use
502 ApiQueryTokensRegisterTypes instead.
503 Use this hook to add custom tokens to list=recentchanges. Every token has an
504 action, which will be used in the rctoken parameter and in the output
505 (actiontoken="..."), and a callback function which should return the token, or
506 false if the user isn't allowed to obtain it. The prototype of the callback
507 function is func($pageid, $title, $rc), where $pageid is the page ID of the
508 page associated to the revision the token is requested for, $title the
509 associated Title object and $rc the associated RecentChange object. In the
510 hook, just add your callback to the $tokenFunctions array and return true
511 (returning false makes no sense).
512 &$tokenFunctions: [ action => callback ]
513
514 'APIQueryRevisionsTokens': DEPRECATED since 1.24! Use
515 ApiQueryTokensRegisterTypes instead.
516 Use this hook to add custom tokens to prop=revisions. Every token has an
517 action, which will be used in the rvtoken parameter and in the output
518 (actiontoken="..."), and a callback function which should return the token, or
519 false if the user isn't allowed to obtain it. The prototype of the callback
520 function is func($pageid, $title, $rev), where $pageid is the page ID of the
521 page associated to the revision the token is requested for, $title the
522 associated Title object and $rev the associated Revision object. In the hook,
523 just add your callback to the $tokenFunctions array and return true (returning
524 false makes no sense).
525 &$tokenFunctions: [ action => callback ]
526
527 'APIQuerySiteInfoGeneralInfo': Use this hook to add extra information to the
528 sites general information.
529 $module: the current ApiQuerySiteInfo module
530 &$results: array of results, add things here
531
532 'APIQuerySiteInfoStatisticsInfo': Use this hook to add extra information to the
533 sites statistics information.
534 &$results: array of results, add things here

968 RecentChangesLinked and Watchlist).
969 Do not use this to implement individual filters if they are compatible with the
970 ChangesListFilter and ChangesListFilterGroup structure.
971 Instead, use sub-classes of those classes, in conjunction with the
972 ChangesListSpecialPageStructuredFilters hook.
973 This hook can be used to implement filters that do not implement that structure,
974 or custom behavior that is not an individual filter.

990 If you create new groups, you must register them with $special->registerFilterGroup.
991 Note that this is called regardless of whether the user is currently using
992 the new (structured) or old (unstructured) filter UI. If you want your boolean
993 filter to show on both the new and old UI, specify all the supported fields.

1016 'ChangeTagCanDelete': Tell whether a change tag should be able to be
1017 deleted from the UI (Special:Tags) or via the API. The default is that tags
1018 defined using the ListDefinedTags hook are not allowed to be deleted unless
1019 specifically allowed. If you wish to allow deletion of the tag, set
1020 `$status = Status::newGood()` to allow deletion, and then `return false` from
1021 the hook function. Ensure you consume the 'ChangeTagAfterDelete' hook to carry
1022 out custom deletion actions.
