Features

• Use a tag to embed a plastic embed code
• plastic is a javascript library that can (asynchronously) query/fetch data, process it and display it through various modules. It supports querying of SPARQL endpoints and the Semantic MediaWiki ASK API.
• TODO: Provide an parser function that is less verbose and more secure and uses the MediaWiki syntax.

Usage

This Wrapper Extension provides a <plastic> tag that works exactly like the native plastic.js embed code with the one difference that the <plastic> tag is used instead of an <div class="plastic"> tag. For more detailed instructions how to use the plastic.js in general, head to the user documentation.
