MobileFrontend Extension
========================
The MobileFrontend extension adds a mobile view to your mediawiki instance.
Installation
------------
See <https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:MobileFrontend#Installation>
Development
-----------
### Directory structure
- resources/: Files for PHP consumption.
- src/: Files to be processed by Webpack.
### Coding conventions
Please follow the coding conventions of MobileFrontend:
<https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/MobileFrontend/Coding_conventions>
#### Git hooks
Git hooks are provided by default to assist with adhering to
JavaScript code standards, optimizing PNG files, etc. Running these hooks
requires node.js, NPM, and grunt.
Install like so:
npm install
If you are not running Vagrant, be sure to set your `MEDIAWIKI_URL` env
variable to your local index path, e.g.
`MEDIAWIKI_URL=http://localhost/index.php/`
### Committing
Commits are important as they give the reviewer more information to
successfully review your code and find errors or potential problems you might
not have thought of.
Commits are also useful when troubleshooting issues and refactoring. If it's
not clear why a line of code is in the repository important bug fixes could be
lost.
Commits should be as minor as possible. Please avoid removing unrelated
console.log statements, fixing unrelated whitespace etc. do that in a separate
commit which mentions the word cleanup.
First line commit should summarise the commit with bug it fixes if applicable.
e.g. *Fix problem with toggling see bug x*.
Second line should be blank. Third line should go into detail where necessary
providing links to blog posts/other bugs to provide more background. Mention
the platforms/browsers the change is for where necessary, e.g.:
* *This is a problem on Android but not OSX, see `http://<url></url>` which
explains problem in detail*
* *This is a workaround for a known bug in opera mobile see
`http://<url></url>`*
### Testing
#### Unit tests
To run the full test suite run:
npm run precommit
To run only PHP tests:
php ../../tests/phpunit/phpunit.php "tests/phpunit/"
To run only MobileFrontend JS tests:
npm run test:unit
### Releasing
A new version of MobileFrontend is released every two weeks following the
Wikimedia release train if there are new changes.
MobileFrontend follows the version naming from MediaWiki.
Configuration options
---------------------
### MobileFrontend
The following configuration options will apply to all skins operating in useformat=mobile mode.
#### $wgMFEnableXAnalyticsLogging

header is used for analytics purposes.
See: https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Analytics/Kraken/Data_Formats/X-Analytics
* Type: `Boolean`
* Default: `false`
#### $wgMFAppPackageId
ID of the App to deep link to replacing the browser. Set `false` to have no

* Type: `String`
* Default: `'http'`
#### $wgMFEditorOptions
Options to control several functions of the mobile editor. Possible values:
* `skipPreview`: Should the mobile edit workflow contain an edit preview
(before save) to give the user the possibility to review the new text
resulting of his changes or not.
* Type: `Array`
* Default:
```php
[
'skipPreview' => false,
]
```
#### $wgMFEnableMobilePreferences

* Type: `Boolean`
* Default: `false`
#### $wgMFExperiments
A list of experiments active on the skin.
* Type: `Array`
* Default:
```php
[
// Experiment to prompts users to opt into the beta experience of the skin.
'betaoptin' => [
'name' => 'betaoptin',
'enabled' => false,
'buckets' => [
'control' => 0.97,
'A' => 0.03,
],
],
]
```

* Default: `true`
#### $wgMFContentProviderClass
Name of PHP class that is responsible for formatting HTML for mobile.
Must implement IContentProvider.
* Type: `string`
* Default: `DefaultContentProvider`

#### $wgMFMobileFormatterHeadings
This is a list of html tags, that could be recognized as the first heading of
a page. This is an interim solution to fix Bug T110436 and shouldn't be used,
if you don't know, what you do. Moreover, this configuration variable will be
removed in the near future (hopefully).
* Type: `Array`
* Default: `['h1', 'h2', 'h3', 'h4', 'h5', 'h6']`
#### $wgMFSiteStylesRenderBlocking
If set to true, styles inside MediaWiki:Mobile.css will become render blocking.
This is intended for situations where the [TemplateStyles extension](https://m.mediawiki.org/wiki/Mobile_Gateway/TemplateStyles)

See <https://m.mediawiki.org/wiki/Mobile_Gateway/Mobile_homepage_formatting>
Use is discouraged as it leads to unnecessary technical debt and on the long
term the goal is to deprecate usage of this config variable. Use at your own
risk!

#### $wgMFMobileHeader
Requests containing header with this name will be considered as coming from
mobile devices.
* Type: `String`

appropriately, to avoid people receiving cached versions of pages intended for
someone else's devices.*
* Type: `Boolean`
* Default: `false`
#### $wgMFVaryOnUA
Set this to `true`, if you want to send `User-Agent` in the `Vary` header. This
could improve your SEO ranking.
*WARNING: You should set this to true only, if you know what you're doing!*
*CAUTION: Setting this to true in combination with a (frontend)caching layer
(such as Varnish) can have a huge impact on how your caching works, as it now
caches every single page multiple times for any possible/different User Agent
string!*

* Default: `false`
#### $wgMFShowMobileViewToTablets
Controls whether tablets should be shown the mobile site. Works only if

#### $wgMobileUrlTemplate
Template for mobile URLs.
This will be used to transcode regular URLs into mobile URLs for the mobile
view.
It's possible to specify the *mobileness* of the URL in the host portion of the
URL.
You can either statically or dynamically create the host-portion of your mobile
URL. To statically create it, just set `$wgMobileUrlTemplate` to the static
hostname. For example:
```php
$wgMobileUrlTemplate = "mobile.mydomain.com";
```
Alternatively, the host definition can include placeholders for different parts
of the *host* section of a URL. The placeholders are denoted by `%h` and
followed with a digit that maps to the position of a host-part of the original,
non-mobile URL. Take the host `en.wikipedia.org` for example. `%h0` maps to
`en`, `%h1` maps to `wikipedia`, and `%h2` maps to `org`. So, if you wanted
a mobile URL scheme that turned `en.wikipedia.org` into `en.m.wikipedia.org`,
your URL template would look like:
%h0.m.%h1.%h2
* Type: `String`
* Default: `''`
#### $wgMobileFrontendFormatCookieExpiry

If this value is not set, it will default to `$wgCookieExpiration`
* Type: `Integer|null`
* Default: `null`
#### $wgMFNoindexPages
Set to false to allow search engines to index your mobile pages. So far, Google
seems to mix mobile and non-mobile pages in its search results, creating
confusion.
* Type: `Boolean`
* Default: `true`
#### $wgMFStopRedirectCookieHost
Set the domain of the `stopMobileRedirect` cookie.
If this value is not set, it will default to the top domain of the host name
(e.g. `en.wikipedia.org = .wikipedia.org`)
If you want to set this to a top domain (to cover all subdomains), be sure to
include the preceding `.` (e.g. yes: `.wikipedia.org`, **no**: `wikipedia.org`)
* Type: `String|null`
* Default: `null`

```
#### $wgMFCollapseSectionsByDefault
Controls whether to collapse sections by default.
Leave at default `true` for "encyclopedia style", where the section 0 lead text

setting.
Set to `false` for "dictionary style", sections are not collapsed.
* Type: `Boolean`
* Default: `true`
#### $wgMFExpandAllSectionsUserOption
When enabled an option on Special:MobileOptions to expand all sections by default will
be visible. This allows a user to specify a preference for toggling which will override
the value of wgMFCollapseSectionsByDefault.
* Type: `Array`
* Default:
```php
[
'beta' => true,
'base' => false,
]
```

* Default:
```php
[
"MobileOptions" => "mobile-frontend-settings-tagline"
