Main module

Κατάσταση: Όλα τα χαρακτηριστικά που εμφανίζονται σε αυτή τη σελίδα πρέπει να λειτουργούν, αλλά το API είναι ακόμα σε ενεργό ανάπτυξη, και μπορεί να αλλάξει ανά πάσα στιγμή. Εγγραφείτε στη the mediawiki-api-announce λίστα αλληλογραφίας για να ειδοποιείστε για ενημερώσεις.

Εσφαλμένα αιτήματα: Όταν στέλνονται εσφαλμένα αιτήματα στο API, επιστρέφεται μία κεφαλίδα HTTP (header) με το κλειδί "MediaWiki-API-Error" κι έπειτα η τιμή της κεφαλίδας και ο κωδικός σφάλματος που επιστρέφονται ορίζονται στην ίδια τιμή. Για περισσότερες πληροφορίες, δείτε API: Σφάλματα και προειδοποιήσεις.

origin

Κατά την πρόσβαση στο API χρησιμοποιώντας ένα cross-domain αίτημα AJAX (ΕΤΠ), το σύνολο αυτό το τομέα προέλευσης. Αυτό πρέπει να περιλαμβάνεται σε κάθε προ-πτήσης αίτηση, και ως εκ τούτου πρέπει να είναι μέρος του URI αιτήματος (δεν είναι η ΘΈΣΗ του σώματος). Αυτό πρέπει να ταιριάζει με μία από τις ρίζες της Προέλευσης κεφαλίδων ακριβώς, γι ' αυτό θα πρέπει να οριστεί σε κάτι σαν https://en.wikipedia.org ή https://meta.wikimedia.org. Εάν αυτή η παράμετρος δεν ταιριάζει με την Προέλευση κεφαλίδα, 403 απάντηση θα πρέπει να επιστραφεί. Εάν αυτή η παράμετρος ταιριάζει με την Προέλευση κεφαλίδα και η καταγωγή του είναι στη λίστα επιτρεπόμενων, μια Access-Control-Allow-Origin κεφαλίδα θα πρέπει να ρυθμιστεί.

uselang

Γλώσσα για τις μεταφράσεις μηνυμάτων. action=query&meta=siteinfo με siprop=languages επιστρέφει μια λίστα με κωδικούς γλωσσών, ή καθορίστε user για να χρησιμοποιήσετε την προτίμηση γλώσσας του τρέχοντα χρήστη, ή καθορίστε content για να χρησιμοποιήσετε τη γλώσσα περιεχομένου αυτού του wiki.

Default: user
variant

Variant of the language. Only works if the base language supports variant conversion.

errorformat

Format to use for warning and error text output

plaintext
Wikitext with HTML tags removed and entities replaced.
wikitext
Unparsed wikitext.
html
HTML
raw
Message key and parameters.
none
No text output, only the error codes.
bc
Format used prior to MediaWiki 1.29. errorlang and errorsuselocal are ignored.
One of the following values: bc, html, none, plaintext, raw, wikitext
Default: bc
errorlang

Language to use for warnings and errors. action=query&meta=siteinfo&siprop=languages returns a list of language codes. Specify content to use this wiki's content language or uselang to use the same value as the uselang parameter.

Default: uselang
errorsuselocal

If given, error texts will use locally-customized messages from the MediaWiki namespace.

Type: boolean (details)
centralauthtoken

When accessing the API using a cross-domain AJAX request (CORS), use this to authenticate as the current SUL user. Use action=centralauthtoken on this wiki to retrieve the token, before making the CORS request. Each token may only be used once, and expires after 10 seconds. This should be included in any pre-flight request, and therefore should be included in the request URI (not the POST body).

Examples:
Help for the main module.
api.php?action=help [open in sandbox]
Όλη η βοήθεια σε μια σελίδα.
api.php?action=help&recursivesubmodules=1 [open in sandbox]
Permission:
apihighlimits
Use higher limits in API queries (slow queries: 500; fast queries: 5000). The limits for slow queries also apply to multivalue parameters.
Granted to: bot και sysop

Data types

Input to MediaWiki should be NFC-normalized UTF-8. MediaWiki may attempt to convert other input, but this may cause some operations (such as edits with MD5 checks) to fail.

Parameters that take multiple values are normally submitted with the values separated using the pipe character, e.g. param=value1|value2 or param=value1%7Cvalue2. If a value must contain the pipe character, use U+001F (Unit Separator) as the separator and prefix the value with U+001F, e.g. param=%1Fvalue1%1Fvalue2.

Some parameter types in API requests need further explanation:

boolean

Boolean parameters work like HTML checkboxes: if the parameter is specified, regardless of value, it is considered true. For a false value, omit the parameter entirely.

expiry

Expiry values may be relative (e.g. 5 months or 2 weeks) or absolute (e.g. 2014-09-18T12:34:56Z). For no expiry, use infinite, indefinite, infinity or never.

timestamp

Timestamps may be specified in several formats, see the Timestamp library input formats documented on mediawiki.org for details. ISO 8601 date and time is recommended: 2001-01-15T14:56:00Z. Additionally, the string now may be used to specify the current timestamp.

Προτυποποιημένες παράμετροι

Templated parameters support cases where an API module needs a value for each value of some other parameter. For example, if there were an API module to request fruit, it might have a parameter fruits to specify which fruits are being requested and a templated parameter {fruit}-quantity to specify how many of each fruit to request. An API client that wants 1 apple, 5 bananas, and 20 strawberries could then make a request like fruits=apples|bananas|strawberries&apples-quantity=1&bananas-quantity=5&strawberries-quantity=20.
