Extension:Cargo/Known bugs and planned features

From Linux Web Expert

The printable version is no longer supported and may have rendering errors. Please update your browser bookmarks and please use the default browser print function instead.

Known bugs

  • There is currently no way to query on fields that hold a list of coordinates.
  • If a table is recreated via the web interface and the "job run rate" (set via $wgJobRunRate ) is too high, it can lead to some pages not getting their data stored.
  • If the magic words {{PAGENAME}} or {{PAGENAMEE}} are contained in some field, any non-ASCII characters in the page name will be stored in encoded form - either HTML-encoding or percent-encoding, respectively - and then displayed that way also. A possible workaround for this is wrapping magic words in a template or Lua module that decodes special characters.

Planned features

Features that it would be useful to add to Cargo include:

  • More display formats, including more complex charts
  • The ability to call stored procedures, perhaps using a new "#cargo_call" function, to enable more complex, and possibly faster, querying
