A simple MediaWiki extension for rendering Scratch Blocks used on Scratch 3.0. Supports MediaWiki 1.35+.

Transforms <scratchblocks> tags inside wiki articles into <pre class="blocks"> in the HTML, which are then rendered to scratch blocks using CSS and JS included in the page. Inline blocks are rendered with <sb> tags, and become <code class="blocks"> tags.

Use version attribute to set the version. Valid values are 2, 3, and hc-3 (for High Contrast colors).

Installation

This repository no longer uses Git submodules. You do not need to include the --recursive option.

$ cd extensions
$ git clone http://github.com/InternationalScratchWiki/mw-ScratchBlocks4

After cloning, add the line

wfLoadExtension( "mw-ScratchBlocks4" );

to your LocalSettings.php file. If you need to use languages besides English, add the following line (Japanese and Traditional Chinese used as an example):

$wgScratchBlocks4Langs = ['ja', 'zh_TW'];

Note that the TW is preceded by an underscore rather than a hyphen.

This variable is accessible through JavaScript via mw.config.get("wgScratchBlocks4Lang").

Use $wgScratchBlocks4BlockVersion to specify the default version. Valid values are 2, 3, and hc-3 (for High Contrast colors).
