Fetch list of WMF wikis dynamically from API when config fetching is generally enabled
Closed, ResolvedPublic

Description

This has the list of wikis and prefixes configured at wmf:

https://en.wikipedia.org/w/api.php?action=sitematrix&format=jsonfm

When config fetching is generally enabled, we should fetch this list on start-up so that the list of wikis we pre-configure is always up to date.

Change 125421 abandoned by Marcoil:
Bug 58677: Fetch list of WMF wikis dinamically from SiteMatrix API

Reason:
The SiteMatrix should be used to initialize the interwikiMap in ParsoidConfig, but that needs some more planning. Abandoning for now.

https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/125421

The SiteMatrix data should be used to initialize ParsoidConfig's interwiki map (and reloaded periodically), but we need to keep further options (like proxies, certs, etc.). Added dependency on bug #64003 that will add support for those.
