RobloxAPI

A MediaWiki extension which provides easy access to the Roblox API via parser functions. The Roblox API is generally very poorly documented, and using ExternalData or Lua can be hard or not viable for all wiki users. This extension aims to make it easy for you to grab data from Roblox and put it on your wiki. Formerly developed for Dovedale Wiki.

Note

In version 1.2.0, major changes have been made to the extension. The new {{#robloxAPI}} parser function provides new features and should now be the only one used to access the Roblox API. While the old parser functions remain working as before, they might be removed in a future version.

Please see the USAGE.md file for the latest documentation on how to use the extension.
