NAME

       MediaWiki::Bot::Constants - constants for MediaWiki::Bot

VERSION

       version 5.007000

CONSTANTS

       The available constants are divided into 5 tags, which can be imported individually:

       •   err - the error constants, inherited from MediaWiki::API

       •   bool - boolean constants

       •   page - page existence

       •   file - file (image/media) existence status (which is not boolean)

       •   ns - some namespace numbers. Achtung! Incomplete! Use MediaWiki::Bot's functions for
           getting namespace information for your wiki.

EXPORTS

       No symbols are exported by default. The available tags are err, bool, page, file, ns, and
       all.

SYNOPSIS

           use MediaWiki::Bot;
           use MediaWiki::Bot::Constants qw(:file);

           my $bot = MediaWiki::Bot->new();
           my $file_existence = $bot->test_image_exists("File:...");

           # Make sense of MediaWiki::Bot's random numbers
           if ($file_existence == FILE_LOCAL) {
               # Get from local media repository
           }
           elsif ($file_existence == FILE_SHARED) {
               # Get from shared (remote) media repository
           }

DESCRIPTION

       Exportable constants used by MediaWiki::Bot. Use these constants in your code to avoid the
       use of magical numbers, and to ensure compatibility with future changes in
       "MediaWiki::Bot".

       You can also import ":constants" or any constant name(s) from MediaWiki::Bot:

           use MediaWiki::Bot qw(:constants);
           use MediaWiki::Bot qw(PAGE_NONEXISTENT);
