Module:Demo
Appearance
| This module is rated as ready for general use. It has reached a mature state, is considered relatively stable and bug-free, and may be used wherever appropriate. It can be mentioned on help pages and other Wikipedia resources as an option for new users. To minimise server load and avoid disruptive output, improvements should be developed through sandbox testing rather than repeated trial-and-error editing. |
| This module is currently under extended confirmed protection. Extended confirmed protection prevents edits from all unregistered editors and registered users with fewer than 30 days tenure and 500 edits. The policy on community use specifies that extended confirmed protection can be applied to combat disruption, if semi-protection has proven to be ineffective. Extended confirmed protection may also be applied to enforce arbitration sanctions. Please discuss any changes on the talk page; you may submit an edit request to ask for uncontroversial changes supported by consensus. |
Usage
Usage via templates
This module supports {{Demo}}
{{#invoke:Demo|main}}
and {{Demo inline}}
{{#invoke:Demo|inline}}
The input must be wrapped in <nowiki> tags or else it may be processed before the module can read it.
Usage in a module
If you want to use this in another module (such as to make the output prettier), you can get values like so:
require('Module:demo').get(frame)
Function get() returns a table containing:
source= the source code (without<syntaxhighlight>wrappers, characters substituted with html entities)output= the execution result of the source.frame= the frame from which this template took the parameter.
By default, get() takes the first parameter of frame. If the frame uses a different parameter name for the nowiki-wrapped source, then place that name (as a string) as the second parameter, like so require('Module:demo').get(frame, 'alternate_name')
Example:
local p = {}
function p.main(frame)
local parts = require('Module:demo').get(frame)
return '…Pretty HTML… <pre>' .. parts.source .. '</pre> …More pretty HTML… ' .. parts.output .. ' …Even more pretty HTML…'
end
return p

for k = 1, (frame.args.br or 1) do
br = br .. '<br>'
end
return string.format('<pre%s>%s</pre>%s%s', frame.args.style and string.format(" style='%s'", frame.args.style) or '', code, br, template)
end
