Platform requirements

See the release notes for more information on the different versions of this extension.

First install MediaWiki and Wikibase Repository.

The recommended way to install the GND extension is using Composer with MediaWiki's built-in support for Composer.

On the commandline, go to your wikis root directory. Then run these two commands:

COMPOSER=composer.local.json composer require --no-update dnb/mediawiki-gnd:*
composer update dnb/mediawiki-gnd --no-dev -o

Enabling the extension

Then enable the extension by adding the following to the bottom of your wikis LocalSettings.php file:
