UploadBase and subclasses are the backend of MediaWiki's file uploads. The frontends are formed by ApiUpload and SpecialUpload.

Functions

• UploadBase::performUpload( $comment, $pageText, $watch, $user ) – Really perform the upload. Stores the file in the local repo, watches if necessary and runs the UploadComplete hook.
• UploadBase::getLocalFile() – Return the local file and initializes if necessary.
