ApiEx

Now that I've merged [try in ApiSandbox] support in this diff, these should work

Expand wikitext {{Project:Sandbox}}

api.php?action=expandtemplates&text=%7B%7BProject:Sandbox%7D%7D [try in ApiSandbox]

Result
{ }

Damn <translate> tags in result!!

sandbox disabled

ApiEx with new apisandbox=0 to disable the [Try in ApiSandbox] link.

api.php?action=query&text=sandbox_param

The above should not show the link because apisandbox=0 (should it be apisandbox=no) to disable?

OK with TNT?!

Now try it with the mysterious {{TNT }} in front. From Extension:PageImages:

Sample request:

Request page image for an article.

api.php?action=query&prop=pageimages&titles=Lightbox_demo [try in ApiSandbox]

Result

{
    "query": {
        "normalized": [
            {
                "from": "Lightbox_demo",
                "to": "Lightbox demo"
            }
        ],
        "pages": {
            "162510": {
                "pageid": 162510,
                "ns": 0,
                "title": "Lightbox demo",
                "thumbnail": {
                    "source": "https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/e/e9/Crystal_Clear_app_korganizer.png/50px-Crystal_Clear_app_korganizer.png",
                    "width": 50,
                    "height": 50
                },
                "pageimage": "Crystal_Clear_app_korganizer.png"
            }
        }
    }
}

Try apisandbox=0 disabled parameter with TNT

ApiEx with new showSandboxLink=0

api.php?action=query&text=sandbox_param

Try apisandbox=1 param with TNT

This is the default, but force it anyway.

Sample request:

Request page image for an article.

api.php?action=query&prop=pageimages&titles=Lightbox_demo [try in ApiSandbox]

Result

{
    "query": {
        "normalized": [
            {
                "from": "Lightbox_demo",
                "to": "Lightbox demo"
            }
        ],
        "pages": {
            "162510": {
                "pageid": 162510,
                "ns": 0,
                "title": "Lightbox demo",
                "thumbnail": {
                    "source": "https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/e/e9/Crystal_Clear_app_korganizer.png/50px-Crystal_Clear_app_korganizer.png",
                    "width": 50,
                    "height": 50
                },
                "pageimage": "Crystal_Clear_app_korganizer.png"
            }
        }
    }
}

what is the mystery ApiEx/Post ?

and now with post

Expand wikitext {{Project:Sandbox}}

api.php?action=expandtemplates&text=%7B%7BProject:Sandbox%7D%7D [try in ApiSandbox]

Result

, what is this

Parameter name	Value	Default	Comment
Post parameters

A different result

ApiEx local tests

Originally these were using User:SPage (WMF)/ApiEx, my mod of {{ApiEx }} to add "[try in Sandbox]

See API:Page info in search results, it's using it.

Default

basic test invocation

api.php?action=query&text=This%20had%20no%20sandbox%20link [try in ApiSandbox]

Result
{ dummy result }

The above should have View in Sandbox

sandbox disabled

ApiEx with new showSandboxLink=0

api.php?action=query&text=sandbox_param

The above should not show the link because sandbox=0 (should it be sandbox=no) to disable?

another

From API:Page info in search results Sample query for pageimages and pageterms properties of Albert Einstein:

api.php?action=query&prop=pageimages|pageterms&titles=Albert%20Einstein [try in ApiSandbox]

Stress tests

# in API query?

(can't)

& in query

& alone doesn't work in the api.php link, what about %26 (URL-encoded value?): Test query with %26 (ampersand):

api.php?action=query&prop=pageimages|pageterms&titles=%26 [try in ApiSandbox]

}

Bug: %26 works in the api.php request, but it's re-de-un-encoded to & in the Special:ApiSandbox URL fragment, and so doesn't work.
