Template:Method doclink

This renders a link to a particular anchor in automatically-generated documentation for a class at https://doc.wikimedia.org/mediawiki-core/master/php/ . Like {{Class doclink }} it takes a class in mediawiki/core and an optional type=interface. It adds an an anchor parameter to scroll to a particular part of the file (without the #) and a method parameter for the method name (or any text) to display.

Doxygen generates long id attributes for methods, so you have to click on a link to a method to get its anchor value from the URL. But the ids seem stable.

It seems you can add whitespace around the | to make the template invocation more readable.
