CodeQuickLinks creates a rail module with quick links to the user's local JavaScript and CSS files, the user's Community Central global JS and CSS files, the wiki's MediaWiki pages, and Special:JSPages.

Installation

Configuration

Rather than use the default links set, users may incorporate a link set of their own or add additional links to the default set via the inclusion of a window.customCodeQuickLinks object placed prior to the script's import.

The boolean replaceAllDefaultLinks field, by default set to false, allows users to display only their custom link selection without any of the defaults if set to true. The showIcon boolean, set to true by default, allows for the display of a WDS-style icon beside the module title, similar to the design of the modernized rail modules. The linkSet object contains the properly-formatted links for inclusion. An example is displayed below:

window.customCodeQuickLinks= {
	replaceAllDefaultLinks: true,
	showIcon: false,
	linkSet: {
		siteFiles: [
			{
				name: "JSPages",
				href: mw.util.getUrl("Special:JSPages")
			},
			{
				name: "ImportJS",
				href: mw.util.getUrl("MediaWiki:ImportJS")
			}
		],
		userFiles: [
			{
				name: "Global.js",
				href: "//c.fandom.com/wiki/Special:MyPage/global.js"
			},
			{
				name: "Global.css",
				href: "//c.fandom.com/wiki/Special:MyPage/global.css"
			}
		]
	}
};

Localization note

Your preferred language cannot be changed locally. This is because it depends on the wiki's content language. For example, German Community Central's language is German and English Community Central's language is English.
