The WikimediaApiPortalOAuth extension is designed to connect the API Portal with the OAuth server on Meta-Wiki by providing a user interface for creating and managing OAuth 2.0 clients. This extension requires the ability to connect to a wiki acting as an OAuth controller and running OAuth 1.36 or later.

Download

<translate> The extension can be retrieved directly from Git</translate> [?]:

Installation

WikimediaApiPortalOAuth requires MediaWiki 1.35 or later.

  • Download and place the file(s) in a directory called WikimediaApiPortalOAuth in your extensions/ folder.
  • Add the following code at the bottom of your LocalSettings.php:
wfLoadExtension( 'WikimediaApiPortalOAuth' );

Configuration

On the wiki where WikimediaApiPortalOAuth is installed, set $wgWikimediaApiPortalOAuthMetaRestURL to the URL for rest.php on the OAuth controller wiki. For example, in the case of the beta Wikimedia API Portal, the OAuth controller wiki is the beta instance of Meta-Wiki (https://meta.wikimedia.beta.wmflabs.org/w/rest.php). To allow WikimediaApiPortalOAuth to make requests to the OAuth server, set $wgRestAllowCrossOriginCookieAuth to true on the OAuth controller wiki.

Variable name Required? Default Type Description
$wgWikimediaApiPortalOAuthMetaRestURL <translate> Optional</translate> https://meta.wikimedia.org/w/rest.php String URL for rest.php on the OAuth controller wiki

Usage

The Special:AppManagement page provides a simplified set of options for creating and managing OAuth 2.0 clients. The extension supports creating two types of OAuth 2.0 clients:

  • owner-only clients
  • clients with authorization code, client credentials, and refresh token grant types
