$wgCentralIdLookupProviders = [
	'local' => [
		'class' => LocalIdLookup::class,
		'services' => [
			'MainConfig',
			'DBLoadBalancerFactory',
			'HideUserUtils',
		]
	],
];
MediaWiki version:
1.41
Gerrit change 925722
$wgCentralIdLookupProviders = [
	'local' => [
		'class' => LocalIdLookup::class,
		'services' => [
			'MainConfig',
			'DBLoadBalancerFactory',
		]
	],
];
MediaWiki versions:

$wgCentralIdLookupProviders = [
	'local' => [
		'class' => LocalIdLookup::class,
		'services' => [
			'MainConfig',
			'DBLoadBalancer',
		]
	],
];
MediaWiki versions:
1.31 1.36
$wgCentralIdLookupProviders = [
	'local' => [ 'class' => LocalIdLookup::class ],
];
MediaWiki versions:

$wgCentralIdLookupProviders = [
	'local' => [ 'class' => 'LocalIdLookup' ],
];

Example

$wgCentralIdLookupProviders['mycustom'] = [
    'class' => 'MyCustomCentralIdLookup',
    'args' => [ 'arg1', 'arg2' ],
];

or, if the extension uses extension registration (preferable):

{
    //...
    "CentralIdLookupProviders": {
        "mycustom": {
            "class": "MyCustomCentralIdLookup",
            "args": [ "arg1", "arg2" ]
    },
    //...
}

This will create an object with new MyCustomCentralIdLookup( 'arg1', 'arg2' ), and register it as a central ID lookup service.
