Talk:WikiApiary

"For MediaWiki sites on WikiIndex it would be really cool to be able to feed a live infobox from WikiApiary with data on usage. Some sort of Widget or something." So, should WikiApiary push the data to WikiIndex, or should WikiIndex pull the data from WikiApiary? Leucosticte (talk) 12:33, 6 January 2014 (UTC)

Push: bots? Pull: mw:Extension:Scribunto? Or Special:Gadgets? --YiFei | talk 14:02, 6 January 2014 (UTC)

Hmm, I don't know how you would implement it using either of those. The backend would need to be figured out too; what database table would this data be stored in? Leucosticte (talk) 14:03, 6 January 2014 (UTC)

Bots: as 'text' on WikiIndex directly; Scribunto: page cache on WikiIndex; Gadgets: Client cache (the viewers ourselves get the data; probably not a good idea). --YiFei | talk 14:11, 6 January 2014 (UTC)
