| | |
| This module allows you to output different text depending on the [[WP:NAMESPACE|namespace]] that a given page is in. It is a [[WP:Lua|Lua]] implementation of the {{tl|namespace detect}} template, with a few improvements: all namespaces and all namespace aliases are supported, and namespace names are detected automatically for the local wiki.
| |
| | |
| == Usage ==
| |
| | |
| <pre>
| |
| {{#invoke: Namespace detect | main
| |
| | page = <!-- page to detect namespace for, if not the current page -->
| |
| | main = <!-- text to return for the main namespace -->
| |
| | talk = <!-- text to return for talk namespaces -->
| |
| | |
| <!-- text to return for specific subject namespaces -->
| |
| | portal =
| |
| | category =
| |
| | user =
| |
| | draft =
| |
| | wikipedia =
| |
| | mediawiki =
| |
| | timedtext =
| |
| | template =
| |
| | special =
| |
| | media =
| |
| | file =
| |
| | help =
| |
| | module =
| |
| | |
| | other = <!-- text to return for unspecified namespaces -->
| |
| | demospace = <!-- namespace to display text for -->
| |
| | |
| | subjectns = <!-- set to "yes" to treat talk pages as the corresponding subject page -->
| |
| }}
| |
| </pre>
| |
| | |
| == Parameters ==
| |
| | |
| * '''main''' - text to return if the page is in the main namespace.
| |
| * '''talk''' - text to return if the page is in a talk namespace. This can be any talk namespace - it will match any of "Talk:", "Wikipedia talk:", "User talk:", etc.
| |
| * Subject namespace parameters, e.g. '''wikipedia''', '''user''', '''file'''... - the text to return if the page is in the corresponding namespace. This module accepts all subject namespaces as parameters, including [[Wikipedia:Namespace#Aliases|namespace aliases]] and [[Wikipedia:Namespace#Virtual namespaces|virtual namespaces]]. See below for a list of supported values.
| |
| * '''other''' - text to return if no parameters for the page's namespace were specified. This text is also returned if {{para|demospace}} is set to an invalid namespace value.
| |
| * '''subjectns''' - if on a talk page, use the corresponding subject page. Can be set with values of "yes", "y", "true" or "1".
| |
| * '''demopage''' - specifies a page to detect the namespace of. If not specified, and if the {{para|demospace}} parameter is not set, then the module uses the current page.
| |
| * '''demospace''' - force the module to behave as if the page was in the specified namespace. Often used for demonstrations.
| |
| | |
| === Namespace parameters ===
| |
| | |
| Possible values for subject namespace parameters are as follows:
| |
| | |
| {{#invoke:Namespace detect|table}}
| |
| | |
| == Table function ==
| |
| | |
| Use the following to display a table with the different possible namespace parameters:
| |
| | |
| {{#invoke:Namespace detect|table|talk=''yes''}}
| |
| | |
| To include the parameter for talk namespaces, use {{para|talk|yes}}.
| |
| | |
| == Porting to different wikis ==
| |
| | |
| This module is designed to be portable. To use it on a different wiki, all you need to do is to change the values in [[Module:Namespace detect/config]]. Instructions are available on that page.
| |
| | |
| == Technical details ==
| |
| | |
| The module uses a data page at [[Module:Namespace detect/data]]. This page is loaded with [[mw:Extension:Scribunto/Lua reference manual#mw.loadData|mw.loadData]], which means it is processed once per page rather than once per #invoke. This was done for performance reasons.
