# PSMWUpdater
This PowerShell Core (PS 6+) Module provides helper cmdlets helping you to upgrade MediaWiki extensions (including skins). (Sorry, no support for updating MediaWiki itself, for now.)
PowerShell Gallery: [PSMWUpdater](https://www.powershellgallery.com/packages/PSMWUpdater/) 
If you come across any problem using this PowerShell Module, please open an issue or join the chat on gitter.
## Usage
You need to install PowerShell Core (`pwsh`) to use this module. See [Installing various versions of PowerShell#PowerShell Core](https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/powershell/scripting/install/installing-powershell?view=powershell-6#powershell-core).
Install/Update this module with
```powershell
PS> Install-Module -Name PSMWUpdater
# OR
PS> Update-Module -Name PSMWUpdater
```
Then import the module
```powershell
PS> Import-Module PSMWUpdater
```
If there is no further error shown, you are now good to go.
You can always use the following command to explore the module and its cmdlets. It provides the most detailed explanations and samples.
```powershell
# Show all cmdlets
PS> Get-Command -Module PSMWUpdater
# Show help for a cmdlet
PS> Help Get-MwExtension
```
### Quick recipe
If you just want to get started downloading all the latest extensions really fast, try out the following one-liners:
```powershell
# Donwload tar file for Vector skin and Echo extension on latest REL branch
PS> Get-MwExtensionBranch Vector, Echo | % { wget $_.Url }
# Download tar files for all the latest REL branch of extensions (and skins) referred in LocalSettings.php
PS> Get-MwExtension -LocalSettingsPath X:\mediawiki-1.33.0\LocalSettings.php -BareName | Get-MwExtensionBranch | % { wget $_.Url }
# Download tar files for all the MASTER branch of extensions (and skins) that exist in the MediaWiki installation directory
PS> Get-MwExtension -InstallationPath X:\mediawiki-1.33.0\ -BareName | Get-MwExtensionBranch -Branch master | % { wget $_.Url }
# Download tar files for all the REL1_34 branch of extensions (excluding skins) that exist in the MediaWiki installation directory
PS> Get-MwExtension -InstallationPath X:\mediawiki-1.33.0\ -Type Extension -BareName | Get-MwExtensionBranch -Branch REL1_34 | % { wget $_.Url }
```
Then you can just extract the tar files and place them in the suitable folders. Don't forget to run `update.php` after updating the extensions.
### Query for extensions and skins
You may query for your current installed extension and skins with `Get-MwExtension`. For extensions downloaded from MediaWiki [`Special:ExtensionDistributor`](https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Special:ExtensionDistributor), you can see the branch and (SVC) revision information.
```powershell
PS> Get-MwExtension /mnt/x/mediawiki-1.33.0/
Name Branch Version Revision RevisionTime LocalPath
---- ------ ------- -------- ------------ ---------
Extension:CategoryTree /mnt/x/mediawiki-1.33.0/extensions/CategoryTree

Skin:Timeless 0.8.1 /mnt/x/mediawiki-1.33.0/skins/Timeless
Skin:Vector /mnt/x/mediawiki-1.33.0/skins/Vector
```
You may also query for a list of known extensions from [WMF MediaWiki site](https://www.mediawiki.org/).
```powershell
PS> Get-MwExtension
Name
----
Extension:3D
Extension:AJAXPoll
Extension:AbsenteeLandlord
Extension:AbuseFilter
Extension:AbuseFilterBypass
Extension:AccessControl
Extension:AccountInfo
Extension:ActiveAbstract
Extension:AdManager
Extension:AddHTMLMetaAndTitle
Extension:AddMessages
Extension:AddPersonalUrls
Extension:AddThis
Extension:AdminLinks
Extension:AdvancedMeta
Extension:AdvancedSearch
Extension:AkismetKlik
Extension:AllTimeZones
...
```
You can append `-Type Extension` or `-Type Skin` to filter for the extensions or skins only.
### Query for extension branches
You can query for the extension branches to retreive their download URL. Note that extension names are case-sensitive.
```powershell
PS> Get-MwExtensionBranch -Name Vector, Echo
ExtensionName BranchName Url
------------- ---------- ---
Extension:Echo REL1_33 https://extdist.wmflabs.org/dist/extensions/Echo-REL1_33-f106596.tar.gz
Skin:Vector REL1_33 https://extdist.wmflabs.org/dist/skins/Vector-REL1_33-878c1e8.tar.gz
```
If there is ambiguity on whether the extension is a skin, prefix the name in `-Name` parameter with `Extension:` or `Skin:`.
You can ask for a specific branch instead of latest `REL` branch.
```powershell
PS> Get-MwExtensionBranch -Name Vector, Echo -Branch master
ExtensionName BranchName Url
------------- ---------- ---
Extension:Echo master https://extdist.wmflabs.org/dist/extensions/Echo-master-4c991af.tar.gz
Skin:Vector master https://extdist.wmflabs.org/dist/skins/Vector-master-bf365aa.tar.gz
```
You can also ask for all the known branches.
```powershell
PS> Get-MwExtensionBranch -Name Vector, Echo -AllBranches
ExtensionName BranchName Url
------------- ---------- ---
Extension:Echo REL1_31 https://extdist.wmflabs.org/dist/extensions/Echo-REL1_31-b56ec9b.tar.gz
Extension:Echo REL1_32 https://extdist.wmflabs.org/dist/extensions/Echo-REL1_32-335389f.tar.gz
Extension:Echo REL1_33 https://extdist.wmflabs.org/dist/extensions/Echo-REL1_33-f106596.tar.gz
Extension:Echo master https://extdist.wmflabs.org/dist/extensions/Echo-master-4c991af.tar.gz
Extension:Echo source https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/mediawiki/extensions/Echo.git
Skin:Vector REL1_31 https://extdist.wmflabs.org/dist/skins/Vector-REL1_31-f0327dc.tar.gz
Skin:Vector REL1_32 https://extdist.wmflabs.org/dist/skins/Vector-REL1_32-d3ed21a.tar.gz
Skin:Vector REL1_33 https://extdist.wmflabs.org/dist/skins/Vector-REL1_33-878c1e8.tar.gz
Skin:Vector master https://extdist.wmflabs.org/dist/skins/Vector-master-bf365aa.tar.gz
Skin:Vector source https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/mediawiki/skins/Vector.git
```
Then you can use `Invoke-WebRequest` or `wget` to download the `tar.gz` files.
```powershell
PS> Get-MwExtensionBranch -Name Vector, Echo | % { wget $_.Url }
```
Or use the following expression to download all the latest REL extensions for your local MediaWiki installation.
```powershell
PS> Get-MwExtension ./mediawiki-1.33.0/ -NoEmpty -BareName | Get-MwExtensionBranch
```
