How can I get the value of a template's parameters while in an
extension? I'm talking about an extension that is invoked in a
template that has parameters. For example, <extension>{{{1}}}</
extension> somewhere in a template. The text '{{{1}}}' is passed to
the extension rather than it's value. It's clear the the parser
doesn't parse wiki text before nor after an extension is called,
probably by design. That seems to leave this issue to the extension
writer. Is there a way to get to such a parameter's value or somehow
pass that value to an extension?
The way I did it was this:
$wgParser->replaceVariables($text, end( $wgParser->mArgStack ))
Note that I last tested this on 1.5, a few revisions back. This also
only works on the main text input (*not* <foo bar=baz> arguments).
