I want to add a hook to make it possible to check other open proxy lists besides $wgProxyList. Specifically, the addProxies.php maintenance script creates a proxy table, populates it using the http://www.stopforumspam.com/downloads list, and then checks the user's IP address against it. That way, it's unnecessary to process the whole file each time a user edits; it suffices to check the database. See [[mw:Manual:AddProxies.php#Hack_User.php]]. The implementation I have thus far adds wfRunHooks( 'LocallyBlockedProxy', array( $ip, &$ret ) ); to User::isLocallyBlockedProxy().
Change 118942 had a related patch set uploaded by leucosticte: Add LocallyBlockedProxy hook https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/118942
Eh, can't you just use the userCan hook? Also for SFS, you can use [[mw:Extension:StopForumSpam]] :)
Darn, wish I'd known about that extension yesterday. Anyway, it looks like you're right about the userCan hook; this adaptation of [[mw:Extension:RudeProxyBlock]] works: $wgHooks['userCan'][] = 'efBlockOpenProxies'; $wgRudeProxyBlockDelimiter = "\n"; function efBlockOpenProxies( &$title, &$user, $action, &$result ) { if ( $action == 'edit' ) { global $wgRudeProxyBlockDelimiter, $wgProxyList; $ip = $wgUser->getRequest()->getIP(); $openProxies = explode( $wgRudeProxyBlockDelimiter, wfMsg( 'openproxylist' ) ); if ( in_array( $ip, $openProxies ) ) { $wgProxyList[] = $ip; } } return true; }
Change 118942 abandoned by leucosticte: Add LocallyBlockedProxy hook Reason: Unnecessary; the userCan hook will suffice https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/118942
