BlueSpice is MediaWiki for enterprise environments. In this session, I will show you how to add functionality to BlueSpice with a new extension using BlueSpiceFoundation. We have built a set of standard classes and methods to ease writing extensions for both MediaWiki and BlueSpice. The workshop will cover
- the basic structure of BlueSpice extensions and how it differs from MediaWiki extensions
- how to add user preferences with just one line
- how to make your extension's information available as a semantic property to be used in ask queries
- how to create a grid (table displaying data) using the API and BlueSpice's ExtJS components in just a few minutes
- how to make your existing MediaWiki extension BlueSpice ready and visible in enterprise contexts
Feel free to bring your extension and discuss with us!
