Installation ------------ [](#installation) Install the package via composer: ``` composer require dl/assetsource-mediawiki ``` Configuration ------------- [](#configuration) You can add arbitrary instances of this asset source, to query different wikimedia instances - e.g. the english and german instance. To do that, just add another configuration block with the specific settings under a custom identifier.

First there is not only one wikipedia instance, but one for each available language. Second an image can be stored in the language specific wikipedia or in Wikimedia Commons and included from there. The package brings two different search strategies with different pros and cons. ### Direct Image Search Strategy [](#direct-image-search-strategy) ``` searchStrategy: DL\AssetSource\MediaWiki\Api\SearchStrategies\DirectImageSearchStrategy ``` This search strategy uses the filename and available meta data like the description of an asset to search on. That means if you configure the `commons.wikimedia.org` as domain, the package will search through about ~50 Million asssets available in all languages. But for historical reasons, some images are stored directly in the language specific wikipedia instances and therefore not available with that setting. ### Article Search Strategy (Default) [](#article-search-strategy-default) ``` searchStrategy: DL\AssetSource\MediaWiki\Api\SearchStrategies\ArticleSearchStrategy ``` This search strategy fits better to the Wikipedia use case. It doesn't search the images directly but uses the more powerfull article search to receive a number of wiki articles and then queries the images shown on that articles. The benefit is, if you configure the domain to `en.wikipedia.org` you will get assets, that are uploaded directly to this instance, as well as all fitting assets uploaded to Wikimedia Commons SettingDescriptionarticleLimitHow many articles should be taken into account to query images from. Maximum are 50 articles. Higher values result in more returned articles, but the results may get inaccurateUsage of images in your project ------------------------------- [](#usage-of-images-in-your-project) Please take care of the [correct attribution](https://wiki.creativecommons.org/wiki/Best_practices_for_attribution) of used photos in the frontend.
