[20:34:34] <RoanKattouw>	preilly: https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:Hooks/MediaWikiPerformAction
[20:35:01] <preilly>	RoanKattouw: okay
[20:35:05] <preilly>	RoanKattouw: thanks!
[20:55:33] <preilly>	RoanKattouw: that hook causes another issue
[20:55:43] <preilly>	RoanKattouw: if I call it I never get to the other hook
[21:01:41] <RoanKattouw>	preilly: Oh, right, if OutputPage is disabled, BeforePageDisplay never runs
[21:01:58] <preilly>	RoanKattouw: yeah, that's a bit of an issue
[21:02:10] <RoanKattouw>	Hm
[21:02:21] <RoanKattouw>	preilly: I think there's literally no way to do what you want unless you change core
[21:02:32] <preilly>	RoanKattouw: okay, thanks
[21:02:33] <RoanKattouw>	Because you want output() to do all the processing but not actually output it
[21:02:53] <preilly>	yeah
[21:24:14] <awjr>	RoanKattouw: i'd like to be able to get search suggestions from the query api on my local instance of mediawiki. it doesn't seem to 'just work' for me. is there something i need to enable in my localsettings to make it go?
[21:24:44] <RoanKattouw>	awjr: Hmm, possibly. $wgEnableMWSuggest maybe?
[21:24:51] <RoanKattouw>	Or some $wg with MWSuggest in its name
[21:25:08] <awjr>	hehehe ok thnx
[21:26:06] <preilly>	$wgEnableMWSuggest = true;
[21:26:08] <preilly>	no workie
[21:26:10] <awjr>	RoanKattouw: no dice :(
[21:26:14] <awjr>	what prilly said.
[21:27:11] <RoanKattouw>	You are using action=opensearch ?
[21:27:22] <awjr>	nono
[21:27:26] <awjr>	action=query
[21:27:32] <preilly>	query
[21:27:32] <awjr>	like: api.php?action=query&list=search&srsearch=aple&srinfo=suggestion
[21:27:34] <RoanKattouw>	oh
[21:27:43] <RoanKattouw>	What kind of search suggestions are you after exactly?
[21:27:48] <RoanKattouw>	srinfo=suggestion ?? That exists now?
[21:27:56] <preilly>	RoanKattouw: yes
[21:27:57] <awjr>	yep
[21:27:59] <awjr>	jinx
[21:28:18] <preilly>	RoanKattouw: so?
[21:28:35] <RoanKattouw>	I don't know how that thing works, I didn't write it
[21:29:01] <awjr>	i dont believe you
[21:31:37] <preilly>	Krinkle: howdy
[21:31:59] <Krinkle>	Hi
[21:32:10] <preilly>	Krinkle: do you know how to get this: api.php?action=query&list=search&srsearch=quarrk&srinfo=suggestion working locally?
[21:33:44] <Krinkle>	preilly: I'm not sure I follow. it's standard mw core, works locally by default, for me at least
[21:34:01] <Krinkle>	if not, then Reedy or RoanKattouw probably knows why
[21:34:05] <Krinkle>	just tested it
[21:34:07] <preilly>	RoanKattouw: doesn't
[21:34:24] <preilly>	Krinkle: but, locally do you see a suggested spelling correction?
[21:34:25] <Krinkle>	works for me
[21:34:34] <RoanKattouw>	preilly: Do you just need prefix search suggestions like the search bar on Wikipedia?
[21:34:54] <preilly>	need spelling suggestion
[21:35:01] <awjr>	RoanKattouw: i'm looking for search suggestions for something like "Did you mean..."
[21:35:01] <Krinkle>	that exists?
[21:35:12] <RoanKattouw>	Oh
[21:35:16] <RoanKattouw>	I did not know that existed
[21:35:32] <Krinkle>	autocomplete is opensearch api
[21:35:39] <awjr>	http://en.wikipedia.org/w/api.php?action=query&list=search&srsearch=aple&srinfo=suggestion
[21:35:56] <awjr>	look at the searchinfo node - there's a 'suggestion' property there
[21:37:11] <Krinkle>	probably related to the search backend used
[21:37:27] <awjr>	eg lucene or something?
[21:37:44] <Krinkle>	preilly: locally you likely have local settings set to MySQL full text search. Lucene is much more advanced but afaik not trivial to set up locally.
[21:39:06] <awjr>	Ryan_Lane: does enwiki instance on labs use lucene?
[21:43:06] <Ryan_Lane>	I dunno
[21:43:17] <Ryan_Lane>	I haven't been involved in that project
[21:43:34] <Ryan_Lane>	if it has search, it should be using lucene, though
