== Dark mode toggle gadget ==
{{sudo|MediaWiki:Gadget-dark-mode-toggle.js|skiptalk=yes|answered=yes}}
[[Wikipedia:Village pump (technical)#Make dark mode toggle script a gadget?]] appears to have consensus.

Implementation would essentially involve:
*{{done}} Moving [[User:SD0001/dark-mode-toggle.js]] to [[MediaWiki:Gadget-dark-mode-toggle.js]].
*{{done}} Adding to [[MediaWiki:Gadgets-definition]] under Appearance section, perhaps just below "Use a black background with green text" as the two are similar: <code>dark-mode-toggle [ResourceLoader | targets = desktop, mobile | dependencies = mediawiki.util, mediawiki.api, mediawiki.Uri, mediawiki.storage, es6-polyfills | skins = vector, monobook, modern, minerva, timeless] | dark-mode-toggle.js</code>
*{{done}} Creating [[MediaWiki:Gadget-dark-mode-toggle]] with <code><nowiki>[[User:Volker E. (WMF)/dark-mode|Dark mode]]: Use a light text on dark background color scheme (can be toggled on/off)</nowiki></code>
*{{done}} Changing [[MediaWiki:Gadget-dark-mode]] to <code><nowiki>[[User:Volker E. (WMF)/dark-mode|Dark mode]]: Use a light text on dark background color scheme (Internal – use the [[#mw-input-wpgadget-dark-mode-toggle|toggle gadget above]] instead)</nowiki></code>

Per @[[User:MusikAnimal|MusikAnimal]]'s [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia:Village_pump_(technical)&diff=1059008874 comment], this marks the existing styles gadget as "internal". – [[User:SD0001|<span style="font-weight: bold; color: #C30">SD0001</span>]] ([[User talk:SD0001|talk]]) 10:09, 14 December 2021 (UTC)
:{{ping|SD0001|Volker E. (WMF)}} we already have <code>dark-mode[ResourceLoader|targets=desktop,mobile|skins=vector,monobook,modern,minerva,timeless]|dark-mode.css</code> (''Use a light text on dark background color scheme'') in gadgets - are both of these being kept? Is there a problem if a user enables both at the same time? — [[User:Xaosflux|<span style="color:#FF9933; font-weight:bold; font-family:monotype;">xaosflux</span>]] <sup>[[User talk:Xaosflux|<span style="color:#009933;">Talk</span>]]</sup> 11:45, 14 December 2021 (UTC)
::The relationship between the two has been discussed in the two VPT threads. To recapitulate:
::*the existing <code>dark-mode</code> gadget loads just the CSS
::*toggle functionality relies on programmatically flipping on/off the CSS gadget in user preferences (so obviously the toggle can't be made part of the CSS gadget) 
::*so we call the toggle gadget as the "dark mode" gadget. The CSS gadget is necessary for internal use, but can't be hidden from preferences, so we modify its description to note that it's internal (bullet 4 above).

:Great work, all! But I think there's more to be done. We talked about moving the links to #p-personal, but that can wait. More important is not having the two gadgets side by side in the list, which is rather confusing from a usability standpoint. Right now things are designed with a CSS-only gadget and then a toggle gadget, but that's purely out of technical necessity. I suspect most will want the luxury of easily toggling it on/off (especially for a dark mode that uses the <code>invert()</code> CSS filter which inevitably will produce some sort of visual bug). The problem is how to accommodate those who have the CSS gadget on but not the toggle.
:What if we add a [[MediaWiki:Gadget-dark-mode.js]] that checks if dark-mode-toggle is enabled, and if not, enables it and loads the JS? Is that too hacky and/or weird?
:Also I think we should link to [[Wikipedia:Dark mode]] from the gadget descriptions, and amend the page to document the gadget first and foremost, with the other content below it.
:Then finally moving the toggle to p-personal as discussed at [[WP:VPT]]. That will require a little more care, since we need to use peer gadgets to ensure the links don't "jump" in p-personal, and that it looks good in mobile view. It can be done though, and I'll gladly take a stab when the time comes.
:Once all of that is done, I feel like we'll be in a good place to start talking about enabling the gadget for all users. And that, in turn, may argue that [[mw:Extension:DarkMode]] could possibly have a second chance at deployment (since we're basically reproducing it locally in a rather hacky way)… but one step at a time :) <span style="font-family:sans-serif">&mdash; <span style="font-weight:bold">[[User:MusikAnimal|<span style="color:black; font-style:italic">MusikAnimal</span>]] <sup>[[User talk:MusikAnimal|<span style="color:green">talk</span>]]</sup></span></span> 06:03, 16 December 2021 (UTC)
::Moving links to #p-personal - @[[User:Nardog|Nardog]] already [[MediaWiki talk:Gadget-dark-mode-toggle.js#Interface-protected edit request on 16 December 2021|set that in motion]], but there's still no css to avoid the "jump". Should we add the CSS as a new peer gadget, or just add it along with dark-mode CSS?<br>I think the confusion from having two gadgets could be solved by more tactful gadget descriptions – maybe create an "Internal" section at the bottom and move the styles gadget there? <br>{{tq| What if we add a MediaWiki:Gadget-dark-mode.js that checks ... }} As Izno mentioned on VPT, the base dark-mode gadget can't contain anything other than CSS – it ceases to be render-blocking if any JS is added into it, leading to FOUCs. If you are suggesting this as a way of enabling the toggle for existing dark-mode users, how about putting some temporary code in mediawiki:group-user.js to that effect (if kept for 30 days, anyone who logs in within that time is sorted)? – [[User:SD0001|<span style="font-weight: bold; color: #C30">SD0001</span>]] ([[User talk:SD0001|talk]]) 17:42, 16 December 2021 (UTC)
:::Yeah I saw it was moved to p-personal. I'll try to work on the peer CSS soon. I believe dark-mode-toggle needs a peer gadget to reserve the space for the "Dark mode" text and dark-mode.css would reserve the space for "Light mode". That should work I think. I'll test it out on Test Wikipedia first.
:::I have moved dark-mode back to the bottom of "Testing and development" and change the description to be as you suggested, encouraging use of the toggle. I now understand why we can't have a dark-mode.js, thanks for explaining. I don't think we need to bother with adding special temporary code to Group-user.js or what have you. Those who have only the CSS gadget enabled will eventually discover the toggle gadget. <span style="font-family:sans-serif">&mdash; <span style="font-weight:bold">[[User:MusikAnimal|<span style="color:black; font-style:italic">MusikAnimal</span>]] <sup>[[User talk:MusikAnimal|<span style="color:green">talk</span>]]</sup></span></span> 18:21, 16 December 2021 (UTC)
::This pretty much solves the jumping effect: <syntaxhighlight lang="css">.skin-vector-legacy :not(#pt-darkmode) + #pt-watchlist::before,
.skin-monobook :not(#pt-darkmode) + #pt-watchlist::before {
	content: "Dark mode";
	visibility: hidden;
	margin-left: inherit;
}</syntaxhighlight> The content of the pseudo-element must be hard-coded, so it won't reflect the label in <code>mw.messages</code>—probably a non-issue as long as the JS and CSS cross-reference each other in comments. A bigger problem is that if the dark mode is on, there will still be a slight jump because the toggle will show up as "Light mode". Come to think of it, I don't even know if the toggle should show different labels at all—it's pretty clear what a button called "Dark mode" does when you're already in the dark mode. I've found "Light mode" a bit clumsy anyway. [[User:Nardog|Nardog]] ([[User talk:Nardog|talk]]) 13:33, 17 December 2021 (UTC)
:::The jump while in dark mode can be removed by adding the same style with higher specificity (but with content: "Light mode") in dark-mode.css. – [[User:SD0001|<span style="font-weight: bold; color: #C30">SD0001</span>]] ([[User talk:SD0001|talk]]) 15:18, 19 December 2021 (UTC)

Used both of your suggestions (thank you!). If it all looks good to you I'll get this implemented here on enwiki.

:::::It works!

::::::::I don't see any issue. Toggling and rapidly navigating to another page may load the old mode – which is an expected race condition as the server is sending the new page just as the user preference is changing, but not exactly a bug as the mode change is still registered and reflected on subsequent navigation.

:::::::::Yes doing more testing today, I believe it's just the race condition when toggling and changing pages, which may be more noticeable on testwiki. This probably isn't something people will experience during normal day-to-day usage, rather I found it only because I was doing rigorous testing. If we hear more complaints we can look into adding the beforeunload handler. <span style="font-family:sans-serif">&mdash; <span style="font-weight:bold">[[User:MusikAnimal|<span style="color:black; font-style:italic">MusikAnimal</span>]] <sup>[[User talk:MusikAnimal|<span style="color:green">talk</span>]]</sup></span></span> 17:05, 21 December 2021 (UTC)
::::::::::A less intrusive way than beforeunload is to keep the preference in localStorage (or perhaps sessionStorage) on toggling, and if it doesn't match the value in mw.user.options when the script is loaded, turn it on/off according to the storage value (or double-check with the server and then turn it on/off).

:::::::::::Clever! sessionStorage would maybe make more sense here because it's only meant to carry over multiple requests in quick succession, and it'll expire on its own.

::@[[User:SD0001|SD0001]] Thanks for creating centralized documentation! I am very fond of spreading this idea to more wikis such as through [[meta:Tech/News|Tech News]]. If it catches on, perhaps that would be enough to convince whomever that the community is content with a CSS filter-based solution, and [[mw:Extension:DarkMode]] will have a chance. Assuming that won't happen, I think we should go the [[meta:MoreMenu]] route and instruct other wikis to import the gadget from here, offering a means to localize messages -- either through edit request here or perhaps sourcing a local file ([[phab:T198758|JSON behind ResourceLoader]] is coming ''very'' soon, by the way!). Aside from the messages and the CSS tweaks which each wiki could also independently make, is there any reason for them to "copy" our gadget?

:::@[[User:MusikAnimal|MusikAnimal]] For the JS toggle, you're right - it can also be dynamically loaded, especially since the i18n messages could soon be moved to a json file.  But the CSS gadgets would have to be copied to avoid FOUCs. Overall, the Gadgets extension still leaves a lot to be desired.

Hi - I'm trying to implement a template in my userspace which will allow the use of a particular font custom for use in my signature.

*:I hadn't remembered it was not local (sourced either directly to Toolforge or to the meta version), but regardless, I like to think it makes sense to attempt to reach gadget-savvy (JavaScript/CSS) editors here generally, and specifically in this case one might be able to correct the issue by fixing the script.

*::Oh for sure, and if there is a good fix that can be made on the meta script, I can make it over there, but for the most part major work is happening on toolforge, even on the meta script. — [[User:Xaosflux|<span style="color:#FF9933; font-weight:bold; font-family:monotype;">xaosflux</span>]] <sup>[[User talk:Xaosflux|<span style="color:#009933;">Talk</span>]]</sup> 23:05, 21 January 2022 (UTC)

There is a request at [[MediaWiki talk:Gadgets-definition#Protected edit request on 30 January 2022|MediaWiki talk:Gadgets-definition]] which is categorised as a full protection request, but is actually an interface protection request, if someone would like to look at it?
