About
This is a specification for RcGcDw API extending formatters and allowing to add additional pre and post processing hooks for message contents.
Pre-processing hook
A class allowing to change the message content and/or execute additional actions each time given event gets read. This type of hook executes before a formatter.
Formatters
Formatters allow to specify how does a Discord message look like depending on message mode (embed, compact) and type of the event that had happened on the wiki (new, edit etc). If formatter for given event is not registered, the script will look for formatter for event "generic" and if this is also not found it will throw a wartning.
Post-processing hook
A class allowing to change the message content and/or execute additional actions after message has been processed by the formatter. This type of hook executes after a formatter.

API
api object exposes various data which allows to extend the usefulness of what can be then sent to Discord.
Language support
Formatter event types
Formatters can be added based on their "event type". Event type is determined by type property for events in Recent Changes MediaWiki API. However in case of log events this becomes not enough and log events are chosen by "logtype/logaction" combination (for example upload/overwrite).
There are also additional made up cases like a single event type of "abuselog" for all abuselog related events and "discussion/discussiontype" for Fandom's Discussion technology integration.
Example formatter
import logging
from src.discord.message import DiscordMessage
from src.api import formatter
from src.api.context import Context
from src.api.util import create_article_path, link_formatter
from src.i18n import formatters_i18n
_ = formatters_i18n.gettext
logger = logging.getLogger("extensions.abusefilter")
@formatter.embed(event="abuselog/modify", mode="embed")
def embed_modify(ctx: Context, change: dict) -> DiscordMessage:
embed = DiscordMessage(ctx.message_type, ctx.event, webhook_url=ctx.webhook_url)
embed.set_link(create_article_path(
"Special:AbuseFilter/history/{number}/diff/prev/{historyid}".format(number=change["logparams"]['newId'],
historyid=change["logparams"][
"historyId"])))
embed["title"] = _("Edited abuse filter number {number}").format(number=change["logparams"]['newId'])
return embed
@formatter.compact(event="abuselog/modify")
def embed_modify(ctx: Context, change: dict) -> DiscordMessage:
link = link_formatter(create_article_path(
"Special:AbuseFilter/history/{number}/diff/prev/{historyid}".format(number=change["logparams"]['newId'],
historyid=change["logparams"][
"historyId"])))
content = _("[{author}]({author_url}) edited abuse filter [number {number}]({filter_url})").format(author=author,
author_url=author_url,
number=change[
"logparams"][
'newId'],
filter_url=link)
return DiscordMessage
Example hook
logger = logging.getLogger("extensions.abusefilter")
class test1(Hook):
def __init__(self, api):
self.api = api
def embed_modify(self, base_msg: DiscordMessage, change: dict) -> DiscordMessage:
return DiscordMessage
def compact_modify(self, base_msg: DiscordMessage, change: dict) -> DiscordMessage:
return DiscordMessage
