🔄 Development Handover Summary

📋 Overview

Implementing the temp accounts created redirect support when editing the new mobile editing experience.

✅ Work Completed

• Temporary accounts are supported when editors are editing statements in the new mobile editing experience
• If the API responds with a tempuserredirect URL, redirect the user to that URL to finish setting up the account (e.g. for CentralAuth)
• Jest tests are covering the tempUserCreated logic.

🧪 Testing/Technical Status

Completed:

• Jest tests
• Manual testing performed
• CI Builds are green and no merge conflicts (so far)
• E2E tests written and passing (Will have to pass for this tempUser topic due to different implementations between the production, CI and local)
• Code review received
• Code review comments addressed and resolved

Test Coverage:

• addReturnToParams() adds full returnto fields, omits missing values, and leaves the original params untouched.
• handleTempUserRedirect() redirects when tempuserredirect exists and preserves the URL otherwise.
• checkAndHandleTempUserRedirect() triggers the popup when redirected-by-hook=yes is present and skips it for empty queries or redirected-by-hook=no.

🎯 How to test:

1. For localhost testing, you will need to add the following code snippet to your LocalSettings.php file in order to enable the tempUserCreatedRedirect:

$wgHooks['TempUserCreatedRedirect'][] = static function (
		\MediaWiki\Session\Session $session,
		\MediaWiki\User\UserIdentity $user,
		string $returnTo,
		string $returnToQuery,
		string $returnToAnchor,
		&$redirectUrl
	) {
		if ( $returnTo === '' ) {
			$returnTo = \MediaWiki\Title\Title::newMainPage()->getFullText();
		}
		if ( $returnToQuery === '' ) {
			$returnToQuery = 'redirected-by-hook=yes';
		} else {
			$returnToQuery = "redirected-by-hook=yes&$returnToQuery";
		}
		$redirectUrl = \MediaWiki\Title\Title::newFromTextThrow( $returnTo )
				->getFullURL( $returnToQuery ) . $returnToAnchor;
	};
