Hi all,
I would like to contribute an extension that will display page preview popovers when
hovering wiki links, similarly to what MediaWiki offers:
https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Page_Previews
https://blog.wikimedia.org/2018/05/09/page-previews-documentation/
Sounds nice. Do you plan to implement it as a Rendering Transformation (similar to what
the Glossary app do) or as Javascript code?
Its name could be
'application-page-preview-popover' - what do you think? As discussed with Caty
yesterday, the extension will use the Bootstrap popovers. Should you have any need or
suggestion, please let me know.
So it depends on the technology you wish to use. If it’s a transformation, I would name it
"transformation-preview”. If it’s JS/webjar, I guess you’ll need a JSX object to load
it so I guess "application-page-preview” would be fine.
Thanks

If the name is ok, can I ask you for the creation of a
repository and JIRA project?
Stéphane
