Module:URL
Module documentation[view] [edit] [history] [purge]
This module implements {{URL}} and {{URL2}}. Please see the template page for documentation.
Lua interface
The p._url(url, text, msg)
function may be used by other Lua modules. It returns a formatted Wikitext for the given URL, made suitable for line wrapping using . It takes the following parameters:
- url
- REQUIRED. The URL to format.
- text
- OPTIONAL. Display text to put in the Wikitext link. Defaults to a pretty version of the URL.
- msg
- OPTIONAL. String. If content is false, n or N, do not emit a help message (using
{{tlx}}
) when URL is not given.
Example
The following module emits a prettified link to log the user out. It will wrap correctly to most widths.
local url = require('Module:URL')._url
local p = {}
p.main = function(frame)
return url("https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:UserLogout")
end
return p
