Wikisource:Shared Scripts

From Wikisource
(Redirected from Wikisource:Shared scripts)

Here is a list of Javascript tools that are used at Wikisource subdomains. If you use one of them, please add your wiki to the Deployment column.

Note : Some of those scripts have internal messages that need to be localized. In order to display messages in your language, define the ws_messages variable at your wiki, following this example :

self.ws_messages = { 
	'optlist': 'Anzeigeoptionen',
	'hide_page_numbers': 'Seitenzahlen ausblenden',
	'show_page_numbers': 'Seitenzahlen einblenden'
}

See en:MediaWiki:Common.js for a complete list.

You may deploy any of those scripts on your wiki, using the following syntax (Base.js is sometimes required by other scripts) :

$.getScript( '//wikisource.org/w/index.php?title=MediaWiki:Base.js&action=raw&ctype=text/javascript' )
.done( function() {
	// Scripts depending on Base.js goes here
	mw.loader.load('//wikisource.org/w/index.php?title=MediaWiki:IndexForm.js&action=raw&ctype=text/javascript');
} );

Compare.js Adds a link to compare two versions of the same work (in the same language or different languages), side-by-side on two columns (example: click on the ⇔ symbols on the left).
This is intended as a replacement for DoubleWiki, which does not always work well and does not permit to compare pages in the same language. However the two can coexist.
