Extension:Parsoid

(There was an older extension also named Parsoid which is no longer maintained or used; see Special:PermanentLink/1916875 if you want to learn about that.)

The Parsoid extension exports a REST API for the PHP port of the Parsoid wikitext parsing service. It is only required if you are running RESTBase as a caching layer in front of Parsoid. The code is hosted in the same repository as the main Parsoid library in the extension/ subdirectory. This is a temporary hack to facilitate moving code between the Parsoid library and core.

For installation instructions, see Parsoid.

This extension is being used on one or more Wikimedia projects. This probably means that the extension is stable and works well enough to be used by such high-traffic websites. Look for this extension's name in Wikimedia's CommonSettings.php and InitialiseSettings.php configuration files to see where it's installed. A full list of the extensions installed on a particular wiki can be seen on the wiki's Special:Version page.
