Module:Ustring

![]() | This module is rated as ready for general use. It has reached a mature form and is thought to be bug-free and ready for use wherever appropriate. It is ready to mention on help pages and other Wikipedia resources as an option for new users to learn. To reduce server load and bad output, it should be improved by sandbox testing rather than repeated trial-and-error editing. |
This module directly imports all functions from the mw.ustring
library. Documentation for each function can be found there.
The module takes an indefinite number of arguments. Arguments given as |s1=
, |s2=
, etc, are read first, and are used as strings. All remaining numerical arguments are coerced to number type if possible, and remain strings if not. If you wish for a numerical (i.e. unnamed or "|1=
", "|2=
") to remain a string, you can simply escape it by inserting \
at the beginning of the string.
Note that MediaWiki will always trim whitespace from named arguments; to give arguments with surrounding whitespace you must use unnamed parameters starting with \
.
To pass this... | Write this | Explanation |
---|---|---|
" 0123 " |
|\ 123 |
To get surrounding whitespace must use unnamed, but must precede with \ to indicate that it isn't a number.
|
"0123" |
|s1=0123 |
If you don't need to preserve whitespace use |s1= etc.
|
"0123" |
|1=\0123 |
If you don't need to preserve whitespace explicitly use |1= etc.
|
In another template, to pass its parameter {{{1}}} , preserving whitespace |
|\{{{1}}} |
Must provide the \ with unknown string input.
|
In another template, to pass its parameter {{{1}}} , stripping whitespace |
|s1={{{1}}} |
|
In another template, to pass its parameter {{{1}}} , stripping whitespace |
|1=\{{#if:1|{{{1}}}}} |
You can also wrap results in tags. All other unused arguments will be passed to
frame:extensionTag
Usage
[संपादन करीं]{{#invoke:Ustring|function_name|arg1|arg2|...}}
is equivalent to mw.ustring.function_name
( arg1, arg2, ... )
Example using mw.ustring.sub
[संपादन करीं]{{#invoke:Ustring|sub|s1=abcde|2|4}}
produces:
bcd
Example using mw.ustring.gsub
[संपादन करीं]{{#invoke:Ustring|gsub|s1=1234|23|}}
produces:
14
Example using mw.ustring.char
[संपादन करीं]&#{{#invoke:ustring|char|49|48|59}}
produces:
Example using mw.ustring.match
[संपादन करीं]{{#invoke:Ustring|match|s1=abcde|s2=(c%w)}}
produces:
cd
Note: Only the first match is returned. Additional returns are omitted because mw.ustring.gsub's second return value is generally undesirable.
Example using tag arguments
[संपादन करीं]{{#invoke:Ustring|match |s1={{Module:Ustring}}|%s%s%sif%snot%s[^%s]+%sthen.+% <!--enter an actual newline character to match '\n'-->%s%s%send |tag=syntaxhighlight|lang=lua}}
produces:
if not fargs.tag then
return (what(unpack(args))) -- Outside parens truncate to first result avoiding tail call
end
local tagargs = {}
for x, y in pairs(fargs) do
if not fargsused[x] then tagargs[x] = y end
end
Note that:
<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">{{#invoke:Ustring|match |s1={{Module:Ustring}}|%s%s%sif%snot%s[^%s]+%sthen.+% <!--enter an actual newline character to match '\n'-->%s%s%send}}</syntaxhighlight>
produces:
{{#invoke:Ustring|match
|s1={{Module:Ustring}}|%s%s%sif%snot%s[^%s]+%sthen.+%
<!--enter an actual newline character to match '\n'-->%s%s%send}}
Errors
[संपादन करीं]Errors from accessing mw.ustring
should be maintained, e.g.:
{{#invoke:Ustring|xyzzy}}
should produce:
Script error: The function "xyzzy" does not exist.
and
{{#invoke:Ustring|maxPatternLength}}
should produce:
Script error: "maxPatternLength" is not a function.
