# RobloxAPI
A MediaWiki extension which provides easy access to the Roblox API via parser functions. The Roblox API is generally
very poorly documented, and using ExternalData or Lua can be hard or not viable for all wiki users. This extension aims
to make it easy for you to grab data from Roblox and put it on your wiki. Formerly developed
for [Dovedale Wiki](https://github.com/dovedalewiki).
> [!NOTE]
> In version 1.2.0, major changes have been made to the extension. The new `{{#robloxAPI}}` parser function provides new
> features and should now be the only one used to access the Roblox API. While the old parser functions remain working
> as before, they might be removed in a future version.
>
> Please see the [USAGE.md](USAGE.md#Migrating-from-the-old-parser-functions) file for the latest documentation on how
> to use the extension.
