bot_passwords table

MediaWiki version:

≥ 1.27

Stores bot passwords.

On wiki farms using some kind of single sign-on, wikis can use a single shared table; thus, the local wiki's bot_password table is not necessarily the one where the passwords are stored. See $wgBotPasswordsDatabase and $wgBotPasswordsCluster.

Fields

bp_user

Central ID of the user. On a default installation this is a foreign key to user.user_idManual:User table#user id.

bp_app_id

App ID, used to differentiate multiple applications using the same account; applications using bot login need to pass <real username>@<app id> as username.

bp_password

Password hash (like user.user_passwordManual:User table#user password).

bp_token

Token for remembering / invalidating the session (like user.user_tokenManual:User table#user token).

bp_restrictions

JSON blob for MWRestrictions.

bp_grants

Grants allowed to the account when authenticated with this bot-password.
