The PoolCounter extension provides a MediaWiki client for the pool counter daemon.
InstallationEdit
- Download and place the file(s) in a directory called
PoolCounter
in yourextensions/
folder.
- Add the following code at the bottom of your LocalSettings.php:
wfLoadExtension( 'PoolCounter' );
- Done – Navigate to Special:Version on your wiki to verify that the extension is successfully installed.
To users running MediaWiki 1.24 or earlier:
The instructions above describe the new way of installing this extension using wfLoadExtension()
. If you need to install this extension on these earlier versions (MediaWiki 1.24 and earlier), instead of wfLoadExtension( 'PoolCounter' );
, you need to use:
require_once "$IP/extensions/PoolCounter/PoolCounter.php";
ConfigurationEdit
The extension can be configured with the global $wgPoolCountClientConf
, which is an associative array with the following keys:
- servers
- An array of server IP addresses. Adding multiple servers causes locks to be distributed on the client side using a consistent hashing algorithm.
- timeout
- The connect timeout in seconds.
