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 reverseArticleTitle( $article ) {
95 # ...
96 }
97
98 function reverseForExport( $article ) {
99 # ...
100 }
101
102 The setup function for the extension just has to add its hook functions to the
103 appropriate events:
104
105 setupTitleReversingExtension() {
106 global $wgHooks;
107
108 $wgHooks['ArticleShow'][] = 'reverseArticleTitle';
109 $wgHooks['ArticleDelete'][] = 'reverseArticleTitle';
110 $wgHooks['ArticleExport'][] = 'reverseForExport';
111 }
112
113 Having all this code related to the title-reversion option in one place means
114 that it's easier to read and understand; you don't have to do a grep-find to see
115 where the $wgReverseTitle variable is used, say.
116
117 If the code is well enough isolated, it can even be excluded when not used --
118 making for some slight savings in memory and load-up performance at runtime.
119 Admins who want to have all the reversed titles can add:
120
121 require_once 'extensions/ReverseTitle.php';
122
123 ...to their LocalSettings.php file; those of us who don't want or need it can
124 just leave it out.
125
126 The extensions don't even have to be shipped with MediaWiki; they could be
127 provided by a third-party developer or written by the admin him/herself.
128
129 ==Writing hooks==
130
131 A hook is a chunk of code run at some particular event. It consists of:
132
133 * a function with some optional accompanying data, or
134 * an object with a method and some optional accompanying data.
135
136 Hooks are registered by adding them to the global $wgHooks array for a given
137 event. All the following are valid ways to define hooks:
138
139 $wgHooks['EventName'][] = 'someFunction'; # function, no data
140 $wgHooks['EventName'][] = [ 'someFunction', $someData ];
141 $wgHooks['EventName'][] = [ 'someFunction' ]; # weird, but OK
142
143 $wgHooks['EventName'][] = $object; # object only
144 $wgHooks['EventName'][] = [ $object, 'someMethod' ];
145 $wgHooks['EventName'][] = [ $object, 'someMethod', $someData ];
146 $wgHooks['EventName'][] = [ $object ]; # weird but OK
147
148 When an event occurs, the function (or object method) will be called with the
149 optional data provided as well as event-specific parameters. The above examples
150 would result in the following code being executed when 'EventName' happened:
151
152 # function, no data
153 someFunction( $param1, $param2 )
154 # function with data
155 someFunction( $someData, $param1, $param2 )
156
157 # object only
158 $object->onEventName( $param1, $param2 )
159 # object with method
160 $object->someMethod( $param1, $param2 )
161 # object with method and data
162 $object->someMethod( $someData, $param1, $param2 )
163
164 Note that when an object is the hook, and there's no specified method, the
165 default method called is 'onEventName'. For different events this would be
166 different: 'onArticleSave', 'onUserLogin', etc.
167
168 The extra data is useful if we want to use the same function or object for
169 different purposes. For example:
170
171 $wgHooks['PageContentSaveComplete'][] = [ 'ircNotify', 'TimStarling' ];
172 $wgHooks['PageContentSaveComplete'][] = [ 'ircNotify', 'brion' ];
173
174 This code would result in ircNotify being run twice when an article is saved:
175 once for 'TimStarling', and once for 'brion'.
176
177 Hooks can return three possible values:
178
179 * No return value (or null): the hook has operated successfully. Previously,
180 true was required. This is the default since MediaWiki 1.23.
181 * "some string": an error occurred; processing should stop and the error
182 should be shown to the user
183 * false: the hook has successfully done the work necessary and the calling
184 function should skip
185
186 The last result would be for cases where the hook function replaces the main
187 functionality. For example, if you wanted to authenticate users to a custom
188 system (LDAP, another PHP program, whatever), you could do:
189
190 $wgHooks['UserLogin'][] = [ 'ldapLogin', $ldapServer ];
191
192 function ldapLogin( $username, $password ) {
193 # log user into LDAP
194 return false;
195 }
196
197 Returning false makes less sense for events where the action is complete, and
198 will normally be ignored.
199
200 Note that none of the examples made use of create_function() as a way to
201 attach a function to a hook. This is known to cause problems (notably with
202 Special:Version), and should be avoided when at all possible.
203
204 ==Using hooks==
205
206 A calling function or method uses the Hooks::run() function to run the hooks
207 related to a particular event, like so:
208
209 class Article {
210 # ...
211 function protect() {
212 global $wgUser;
213
214 // Avoid PHP 7.1 warning from passing $this by reference
215 $article = $this;
216
217 if ( Hooks::run( 'ArticleProtect', [ &$article, &$wgUser ] ) ) {
218 # protect the article
219 Hooks::run( 'ArticleProtectComplete', [ &$article, &$wgUser ] );
220 }
221 }
222 }
223
224 Hooks::run() returns true if the calling function should continue processing
225 (the hooks ran OK, or there are no hooks to run), or false if it shouldn't (an
226 error occurred, or one of the hooks handled the action already). Checking the
227 return value matters more for "before" hooks than for "complete" hooks.
228
229 Note that hook parameters are passed in an array; this is a necessary
230 inconvenience to make it possible to pass reference values (which can be changed)
231 by the hook callback.
232
233 ==Events and parameters==

307 &$parserOutput: the ParserOutput object for the preview
308
309 'AlternateUserMailer': Called before mail is sent so that mail could be logged
310 (or something else) instead of using PEAR or PHP's mail(). Return false to skip
311 the regular method of sending mail. Return a string to return a php-mail-error
312 message containing the error. Returning true will continue with sending email
313 in the regular way.
314 $headers: Associative array of headers for the email
315 $to: MailAddress object or array

335 false and set a message to cancel the request.
336 $module: Module object
337 $user: Current user
338 &$message: API message to die with. Specific values accepted depend on the
339 MediaWiki version:

341 pass to ApiBase::dieWithError().
342 * 1.27+: IApiMessage, or a key or key+parameters in ApiBase::$messageMap.
343 * Earlier: A key or key+parameters in ApiBase::$messageMap.
344
345 'ApiDeprecationHelp': Add messages to the 'deprecation-help' warning generated
346 from ApiBase::addDeprecation().
347 &$msgs: Message[] Messages to include in the help. Multiple messages will be
348 joined with spaces.

352 processing request parameters. Return false to let the request fail, returning
353 an error message or an <edit result="Failure"> tag if $resultArr was filled.
354 Unlike for example 'EditFilterMergedContent' this also being run on undo.
355 Since MediaWiki 1.25, 'EditFilterMergedContent' can also return error details
356 for the API and it's recommended to use it instead of this hook.
357 $editPage: the EditPage object
358 $text: the text passed to the API. Note that this includes only the single
359 section for section edit, and is not necessarily the final text in case of

362
363 'ApiFeedContributions::feedItem': Called to convert the result of ContribsPager
364 into a FeedItem instance that ApiFeedContributions can consume. Implementors of
365 this hook may cancel the hook to signal that the item is not viewable in the
366 provided context.
367 $row: A row of data from ContribsPager. The set of data returned by
368 ContribsPager can be adjusted by handling the ContribsPager::reallyDoQuery
369 hook.
370 $context: An IContextSource implementation.
371 &$feedItem: Set this to a FeedItem instance if the callback can handle the
372 provided row. This is provided to the hook as a null, if it is non null then
373 another callback has already handled the hook.

446 $module: ApiBase (which is also a ContextSource)
447 $output: OutputPage
448
449 'ApiQuery::moduleManager': Called when ApiQuery has finished initializing its
450 module manager. Can be used to conditionally register API query modules.
451 $moduleManager: ApiModuleManager Module manager instance
452
453 'APIQueryAfterExecute': After calling the execute() method of an
454 action=query submodule. Use this to extend core API modules.
455 &$module: Module object
456
457 'ApiQueryBaseAfterQuery': Called for (some) API query modules after the
458 database query has returned. An API query module wanting to use this hook
459 should see the ApiQueryBase::select() and ApiQueryBase::processRow()
460 documentation.
461 $module: ApiQueryBase module in question
462 $result: ResultWrapper|bool returned from the IDatabase::select()
463 &$hookData: array that was passed to the 'ApiQueryBaseBeforeQuery' hook and
464 will be passed to the 'ApiQueryBaseProcessRow' hook, intended for inter-hook
465 communication.
466
467 'ApiQueryBaseBeforeQuery': Called for (some) API query modules before a
468 database query is made. WARNING: It would be very easy to misuse this hook and
469 break the module! Any joins added *must* join on a unique key of the target
470 table unless you really know what you're doing. An API query module wanting to
471 use this hook should see the ApiQueryBase::select() and
472 ApiQueryBase::processRow() documentation.
473 $module: ApiQueryBase module in question
474 &$tables: array of tables to be queried
475 &$fields: array of columns to select
476 &$conds: array of WHERE conditionals for query
477 &$query_options: array of options for the database request

480 'ApiQueryBaseProcessRow' hooks, intended for inter-hook communication.
481
482 'ApiQueryBaseProcessRow': Called for (some) API query modules as each row of
483 the database result is processed. Return false to stop processing the result
484 set. An API query module wanting to use this hook should see the
485 ApiQueryBase::select() and ApiQueryBase::processRow() documentation.
486 $module: ApiQueryBase module in question
487 $row: stdClass Database result row
488 &$data: array to be included in the ApiResult.

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

921 should do so by altering $wgNamespaceProtection and
922 $wgNamespaceContentModels outside the handler, in top-level scope. The
923 point at which the CanonicalNamespaces hook fires is too late for altering

980 inheriting from ChangesListSpecialPage (in core: RecentChanges,
981 RecentChangesLinked and Watchlist).
982 Do not use this to implement individual filters if they are compatible with the
983 ChangesListFilter and ChangesListFilterGroup structure.
984 Instead, use sub-classes of those classes, in conjunction with the

1000 When constructing them, you specify which group they belong to. You can reuse
1001 existing groups (accessed through $special->getFilterGroup), or create your own
1002 (ChangesListBooleanFilterGroup or ChangesListStringOptionsFilterGroup).
1003 If you create new groups, you must register them with $special->registerFilterGroup.
1004 Note that this is called regardless of whether the user is currently using
1005 the new (structured) or old (unstructured) filter UI. If you want your boolean
1006 filter to show on both the new and old UI, specify all the supported fields.
1007 These include showHide, label, and description.

1011
1012 'ChangeTagAfterDelete': Called after a change tag has been deleted (that is,

1028
1029 'ChangeTagCanDelete': Tell whether a change tag should be able to be
1030 deleted from the UI (Special:Tags) or via the API. The default is that tags
1031 defined using the ListDefinedTags hook are not allowed to be deleted unless
1032 specifically allowed. If you wish to allow deletion of the tag, set
1033 `$status = Status::newGood()` to allow deletion, and then `return false` from
1034 the hook function. Ensure you consume the 'ChangeTagAfterDelete' hook to carry
1035 out custom deletion actions.
1036 $tag: name of the tag
1037 $user: user initiating the action
1038 &$status: Status object. See above.
