This extension is no longer being maintained in favour of the External Content extension.

Hi,

Great extension, works well. Can display now GitHub code & md files into mediawiki pages. Is there a way to ingest the github notifications into a mediawiki as well with this or another extension?

Thank you,

Albert.

Issues or feature requests should be reported here. On your particular suggestion. I do not think that it is within the scope of this extension to do so. Probably another extension will be needed for this.

This extension is no longer being maintained in favour of the External Content extension.

The installation instructions on this page give a very simple procedure - download, unzip, make a few configuration edits. This is very different from the README page at the Github repository, which says that the extension depends on Semantic MediaWiki. Is it really the case that this extension cannot run without Semantic MediaWiki? If so, this page needs to be updated.

I think you refer to this section of the README. This is actually an example how to set the $egGitHubDefaultRepo parameter using Semantic MediaWiki as an example. I will do a tiny tweak to the README to make this more clear.

Give me a Fatal Error after install:

[ca74c763] 2014-12-28 10:43:49: Fatal exception of type MWException

Solved removing with:

$ sudo php composer.phar remove jeroen-de-dauw/mediawiki-github

Basically you just removed the extension. This does not resolve the underlying bug but avoids your issue of an infunctional wiki because of the GitHub extension being installed.

$wgShowExceptionDetails set to "true" would provide more information on the issue for an issue report on the extension's GitHub page.
