P125 is a draft for a simple query API.

However:

  • RemoteWiki::getExtensions() should automatically return an array without 'zzzz'
  • There is no RemoteWiki::getPermissions() method or similar
  • All params need help messages

I’m going to move this to json soon so don’t worry.

  • There is no RemoteWiki::getPermissions() method or similar

Do we need to?

I don't want to prevent actual progress on this task so it's no longer assigned to me.

The new query API is live, just lacks an API for changing settings and such.

The main point of this really was having an API. The extension isn’t designed too well for active actions so a privileged API is out of scope.
