The ShortUrlApi extension provides a client-server API for the ShortUrl extension. It adds:

  • A new property to page queries (action=query&prop=shorturl), providing for each page:
    • path: ShortUrl path (e.g. "/Special:ShortUrl/q45t")
    • code: ShortUrl code (e.g. "q45t")
  • A new query action (action=shorturl), which returns details about specified short URL codes.
    • template: a string formatting template for ShortUrl paths (e.g. "/Special:ShortUrl/$1")
    • an array of details for each code specified in the query
