Description

MediaWiki is an open source wiki engine licensed under the GNU General Public License. It is used by many websites, including this one.

The Jmol Mediawiki Extension enables the use of the Jmol applet inside of Mediawiki pages. This simple page demonstrates how to use the extension.

Note: The Jmol Mediawiki Extension is currently under development. It will go under several changes, different versions will probably be incompatible between each other

How to use the Jmol Extension

Once the Jmol Extension is installed in the Wiki, you can start adding Jmol applets and controls.

This following documentation is subject to change since the Jmol Extension is currently under development

Simple usage

To add a Jmol applet to a MediaWiki page, just add the following:

<jmol>
  <jmolApplet>
    <uploadedFileContents>file uploaded in the wiki containing the molecular data</uploadedFileContents>
  </jmolApplet>
</jmol>

or

<jmol>
  <jmolApplet>
    <wikiPageContents>page of the wiki containing the molecular data</wikiPageContents>
  </jmolApplet>
</jmol>

or

<jmol>
  <jmolApplet>
    <onlineContents>contents of the molecular file</onlineContents>
  </jmolApplet>
</jmol>

or

<jmol>
  <jmolApplet>
    <urlContents>URL of the molecular file</urlContents>
  </jmolApplet>
</jmol>

To add buttons to send scripts to the applet, just add the following:

<jmol>
  <jmolButton>
    <script>script to execute</script>
    <text>text of the button</text>
  </jmolButton>
</jmol>

Applets and buttons can be combined in a single <jmol> tag.

Reference

The <jmol> tag can contain the following:

<jmolApplet> : Jmol Applet.
- <signed> (true, false) : On the first Jmol applet to use the signed or unsigned version of the applet. This attribute can be disabled by the Wiki administrator with the $wgJmolAuthorizeChoosingSignedApplet setting in LocalSettings.php.
- <color> : To change the background color of the Jmol applet.
- <uploadedFileContents> : Name of an uploaded file in this wiki containing the molecular data to load in the Jmol applet. The Wiki needs to be configured to authorize the upload of molecular data files (using $wgFileExtensions in LocalSettings.php).
- <wikiPageContents> : Name of a page of this wiki containing the molecular data to load in the Jmol applet.
- <urlContents> : URL of the molecular file to load. This attribute can be disabled by the Wiki administrator with the $wgJmolAuthorizeUrl setting in LocalSettings.php.
- <onlineContents> : Molecular data to load in the Jmol applet.
- <size> : Size of the applet.
- <script> : Script to execute at startup.
- <name> : Name of the Jmol applet (useful if you want to use several Jmol applets in the same page).
<jmolButton> : Button.
- <script> : Jmol script to execute when the button is clicked.
- <text> : Text of the button.
- <name> : Name of the Jmol applet linked with the button (useful if you want to use several Jmol applets in the same page).

Installation

Download Jmol and extract all the files in a temporary directory.

Create the directory Jmol in $mediawiki/extensions, and copy the following files in it:

COPYRIGHT.txt
Jmol.js
JmolApplet_i18n.jar and JmolApplet0.jar to JmolApplet6.jar
JmolAppletSigned_i18n.jar and JmolAppletSigned0.jar to JmolAppletSigned6.jar, if you want to be able to use the signed applet.
LICENSE.txt
README.txt

Add the following line to the end of LocalSettings.php:

require_once('extensions/Jmol/JmolExtension.php');

You can configure the Jmol extension with several settings added after the above line (default value in bold):

$wgJmolAuthorizeUrl (true, false) : Authorize the use of <urlContents>.
$wgJmolAuthorizeChoosingSignedApplet (true, false) : Authorize users to choose between the unsigned and the signed Jmol applet.
$wgJmolDefaultAppletSize (400) : Size in pixels of the Jmol applet.
$wgJmolForceNameSpace : Force the NameSpace where the applet will go looking for wiki pages containing molecular data (using <wikiPageContents>).
$wgJmolUsingSignedAppletByDefault (true, false) : Choose if the signed Jmol applet will be used by default. Note: the signed Jmol applet is signed with a default certificat. If you want to use the signed Jmol applet in your wiki, I suggest resigning the Jmol applet with your own certificate.

Note: If you want to authorize users to upload files containing molecular data (for using the <uploadedFileContents> tag), you need to do the following:

By default, MediaWiki authorizes the uploading of files whose name ends with a limited number of extensions. For example, if you want to authorize uploading *.cml files, add $wgFileExtensions[] = 'cml'; in LocalSettings.php.
You can add an icon in the skins/common/images/icons/ directory for each extension (for example, fileicon-cml.png). In this wiki, we are using this image, which leads to the following result.

Copy the following code and paste it into extensions/Jmol/JmolExtension.php:
