WIP of a guide to customizing the editing toolbar

Basic

Add the following to your /common.js page:

//customize toolbar
var customizeToolbar = function() {
  /* Your code goes here */

Followed by this:

};
/* 
 * Check if view is in edit mode and that the required modules are available. Then, customize the toolbar...
 * Don't touch below this line!
 */
if (['edit', 'submit'].indexOf(mw.config.get('wgAction')) !== -1) {
  mw.loader.using('user.options').then(function() {
    // This can be the string "0" if the user disabled the preference ([[phab:T54542#555387]])
    if (mw.user.options.get('usebetatoolbar') == 1) {
      $.when(
        mw.loader.using('ext.wikiEditor'), $.ready
      ).then(customizeToolbar);
    }
  });
}

You will place any modifications to the toolbar that you make between these two sections.

Sample buttons

Simply paste any of these premade buttons into your /common.js page between the two basic sections to add it to your toolbar.

Image template

Clicking this button will paste the {{image}} template on to the page, encapsulating your cursor or whatever you have highlighted.

For example, if you have Shallan.jpg highlighted when you press the button it will result in this: {{image|Shallan.jpg|side=|width=|caption}}

  // Adding image template button to the "main" section
  $('#wpTextbox1').wikiEditor('addToToolbar', {
    section: 'main',
    group: 'insert',
    tools: {
      "category": {
        label: 'Image template',
        type: 'button',
        icon: '//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/d/d8/Vector_toolbar_insert_image_button.png',
        action: {
          type: 'encapsulate',
          options: {
            pre:  '{' + '{image|',
            post: '|side=|width=|caption}}'
          }
        }
      }
    }
  });

Category

This button will paste [[Category: and ]] around your highlighted text.

  // Adding category button to the "main" section
  $('#wpTextbox1').wikiEditor('addToToolbar', {
    section: 'main',
    group: 'insert',
    tools: {
      "category": {
        label: 'Category',
        type: 'button',
        icon: '//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/2/2d/Button_clipboard_category.png',
        action: {
          type: 'encapsulate',
          options: {
            pre:  "[[Category: ",
            post: "]]"
          }
        }
      }
    }
  });
