This is the documentation page for ମଡ୍ୟୁଲ:Template wrapper


This module is to be used in wrapper templates to allow those templates to provide default parameter values and allow editors to pass additional parameters to the underlying working template.

When writing a wrapper template, give this module all of the normally required default parameters necessary to use the wrapper template in its base form. Editors then use the wrapper template as-is or may supply additional wrapper and canonical parameters. Any of the canonical parameters supported by the working template may be added to the wrapper template or supplied by editors in article space. When an editor supplies a parameter that has a default value in the wrapper template, the editor-supplied value overrides the default. When it is necessary to remove a default parameter, editors may set the parameter value to the special keyword unset which will cause this wrapper module to erase the wrapper template's default value for that parameter. This module discards empty named parameters.

Positional parameters are not normally passed on to the working template. Setting |_include-positional=yes will pass all positional parameters to the working template. Positional parameters cannot be excluded; positional parameters may be unset.

Parameters that are used only by the wrapper should be either positional ({{{n}}}) or listed in |_exclude= (a comma-separated list of named parameters). This module will not pass _excluded parameters to the working template.

{{#invoke:Template wrapper|wrap|_template=working template|_exclude=named parameter, named parameter, ...|_reuse=named parameter, named parameter, ...|_alias-map=alias parameter:canonical parameter|_include-positional=yes|<default parameter>|<default parameter>|...}}

Control parameters
|_template= – (required) the name, without namespace, of the working template (the template that is wrapped); see §_template below
|_exclude= – comma-separated list of parameter names used by the wrapper template that are not to be passed to the working template; see §_exclude below
|_reuse= – comma-separated list of canonical names that have meaning to both the wrapper template and to the working template; see §_reuse below
|_alias-map= – comma-separated list of wrapper-template parameter names that are to be treated as aliases of specified working template canonical parameters; see §_alias-map below
|_include-positional= – pass all positional parameters to the working template; see §_include-positional below
Definitions
canonical parameter – a parameter supported and used by the working template
wrapper parameter – a parameter used by the wrapper template; may provide data for canonical parameters or control other aspects of the wrapper template
alias parameter – a wrapper parameter that is contextually meaningful to the wrapper template but must be renamed to a canonical parameter for use by the working template
reused parameter – a parameter that is shared by both wrapper and working templates and has been modified by wrapper template
default parameter – a canonical parameter given a default value in the wrapper template

Parameter details[ସମ୍ପାଦନା]

_template[ସମ୍ପାଦନା]

The only required parameter, |_template= supplies the name, without namespace, of the working template (the template that is wrapped). If this parameter is omitted, Module:Template wrapper will emit the error message:

|_template= missing or empty

_alias-map[ସମ୍ପାଦନା]

|alias-map= takes a comma-separated list of wrapper-template parameters that are to be treated as aliases of specified working template canonical parameters. Each mapping element of the list has the form:

<from>:<to> – where: <from> is a wrapper parameter name and <to> is a canonical parameter name

In this example, it may be preferable for a wrapper template to use |assessor= which may be unknown to the working template but the working template may have an equivalent |author= so in the {{#invoke:}} we would write:

|_alias-map=assessor:author

Positional parameters may also be mapped to canonical parameters:

|_alias-map=1:author, 2:title, 3:language

Enumerated wrapper parameters may be mapped to enumerated canonical parameters using the # enumerator specifier:

|_alias-map=assessor#:author#

Given the above example, |assessor2= will map to |author2=; also, |assessor= and |assessor1= will map to |author1=

Multiple wrapper parameters can map to a single canonical parameter:

|_alias-map=1:author, assessor:author

Wrapper parameters listed in |alias-map= are not passed to the working template. Mapping positional parameters when |_include-positional=yes may give undesirable results. |_alias-map=1:author and |_include-positional=yes will cause all other positional parameters to be passed to the working template as is: wrapper template {{{2}}} becomes working template {{{2}}}, etc; working template will not get {{{1}}} though it will get |author=.

_reuse[ସମ୍ପାଦନା]

|_reuse= takes a comma-separated list of canonical parameters that have meaning to both the wrapper template and to the working template

In the simplest cases, a canonical parameter passed into the wrapper template overrides a default parameter provided in the wrapper template. Sometimes a wrapper parameter is the same as a canonical parameter and the wrapper template needs to modify the parameter value before it is passed to the working template. In this example, |title= is both a wrapper parameter and a canonical parameter that the wrapper template needs to modify before passing to the working template. To do this we first write:

|_reuse=title

then, in the wrapper template's {{#invoke:Template wapper|wrap|_template=...|...}} we write:

|title=Modified {{{title}}}

_reused parameters cannot be overridden.

_exclude[ସମ୍ପାଦନା]

|_exclude= takes a comma-separated list of parameters used by the wrapper template that are not to be passed to the working template. This list applies to all wrapper and canonical parameters (including those canonical parameters that are renamed alias parameters) received from the wrapper template.

As an example, a wrapper template might use |id= to supply a portion of the value assigned to default parameter |url= so we would write:

|_exclude=id

then, in the wrapper template's {{#invoke:Template wapper|wrap|_template=...|...}} we write:

|url=https://example.com/{{{id}}}

The modified |url= value is passed on to working template but |id= and its value is not.

_reused and default parameters cannot be excluded.

_include-positional[ସମ୍ପାଦନା]

|_include-positional= is a boolean parameter that takes only one value: yes; the default (empty, missing) is no (positional parameters normally excluded). When set to yes, Module:Template wrapper will pass all positional parameters to the working template.

See also §_alias-map.

Overriding default parameters[ସମ୍ପାଦନା]

Editors may override default parameters by simply setting the default parameter to the desired value in the wrapper template. This module ignores empty parameters (those parameters that are named but which do not have an assigned value). When it is desirable to override a default parameter to no value, use the special keyword unset. Default parameters with this value are passed to the working template as empty (no assigned value) parameters.

_reused parameters cannot be unset or overridden.

Debugging aid[ସମ୍ପାଦନା]

This module has two entry points. A wrapper template might use a module {{#invoke:}} written like this:

{{#invoke:Template wrapper|{{#if:{{{_debug|}}}|list|wrap}}|_template=<working template>|_exclude=_debug, ...|...}}

where the |_debug= wrapper parameter, set to any value, will cause the module to render the call to the working template without actually calling the working template.

As an example, {{cite wikisource}} is a wrapper template that uses {{citation}} as its working template. {{cite wikisource}} accepts positional parameters but {{citation}} does not so the wrapper template must convert the positional parameters to named parameters which it does using the |_alias-map= parameter:

{{#invoke:template wrapper|{{#if:{{{_debug|}}}|list|wrap}}|_template=citation
  |_exclude=..., _debug <!-- unnecessary detail omitted -->
  |_alias-map=1:title, 2:author, 3:language

This example uses positional parameters and sets |_debug=yes to show that the {{citation}} template is correctly formed:

{{cite wikisource|Sentido y sensibilidad|Jane Austen|es|_debug=yes}}
{{citation|author=Jane Austen|language=es|mode=cs1|title=[[s:es:Sentido y sensibilidad|Sentido y sensibilidad]]|via=[[ଉଇକିପାଠାଗାର]]}}

and, with |_debug= unset:

{{cite wikisource|Sentido y sensibilidad|Jane Austen|es|_debug=}}
Jane Austen. Sentido y sensibilidad  (in ସ୍ପେନିୟ) – via ଉଇକିପାଠାଗାର.

The |_debug= name is chosen here for convenience but may be anything so long as it matches the {{#if:}} in the {{#invoke:}}.
