မဝ်ဂျူ:utilities
This module exports various general utility functions, which can be used by other modules.
pattern_escape
ပလေဝ်ဒါန်pattern_escape(text)
Escapes the magic characters used in patterns (Lua's version of regular expressions). For example, "^$()%.[]*+-?"
becomes "<strong class="error"><span class="scribunto-error mw-scribunto-error-56ea91cf">Script error: The function "pattern_escape" does not exist.</span></strong>"
.
format_categories
ပလေဝ်ဒါန်format_categories(categories, lang, sort_key, sort_base, force_output)
Formats a list (table) of category names. The output is a string consisting of all categories with [[Category:...]]
applied to each one, and the given sort key added. If the namespace is not the main, Appendix or Reconstruction namespaces, the output will be an empty string unless force_output
is given. If no sort key is given:
- A default one is generated by using
sort_base
(if given) or the current subpage name, and by removing hyphens from the beginning (so that suffixes can be sorted without a key). - If a sort key is available for the given language, it is then used to create a sort key that follows the rules for that language.
template_categorize
ပလေဝ်ဒါန်{{#invoke:utilities|template_categorize}}
This function is used by the {{categorize}}
, {{catlangname}}
and {{catlangcode}}
templates.
catfix
ပလေဝ်ဒါန်This function adds a "catfix", which is used on language-specific category pages to add language attributes and often script classes to all entry names. The addition of language attributes and script classes makes the entry names display better (using the language- or script-specific styles specified in MediaWiki:Common.css), which is particularly important for non-English languages that do not have consistent font support in browsers.
Language attributes are added for all languages, but script classes are only added for languages with one script listed in their data file, or for languages that have a default script listed in the catfix_script
list in Module:utilities/data. Some languages clearly have a default script, but still have other scripts listed in their data file and therefore need their default script to be specified. Others do not have a default script.
- Serbo-Croatian is regularly written in both the Latin and Cyrillic scripts. Because it uses two scripts, Serbo-Croation cannot have a script class applied to entries in its category pages, as only one script class can be specified at a time.
- Russian is usually written in the Cyrillic script (
Cyrl
), but Braille (Brai
) is also listed in its data file. So Russian needs an entry in thecatfix_script
list, so that theCyrl
(Cyrillic) script class will be applied to entries in its category pages.
To find the scripts listed for a language, go to Module:languages and use the search box to find the data file for the language. To find out what a script code means, search the script code in Module:scripts/data

Like require, but return false if a module does not exist instead of throwing an error.
Outputs are cached in {package.loaded}, which is faster for all module types, but much faster for nonexistent modules since require will attempt to use the full loader each time (since they don't get cached in {package.loaded}).

Format the categories with the appropriate sort key.
* `categories` is a list of categories. Each entry in the list can be either a string (the full category, minus
the {"Category:"} prefix) or an object. In the latter case, the object should have fields
** `cat`: the full category, minus the {"Category:"} prefix (required);
** `lang`: optional language object to override the overall `lang`;
** `sort_key`: optional sort key to override the overall `sort_key`;
** `sort_base`: optional sort base to override the overall `sort_base`;
** `sc`: optional script object to override the overall `sc`.
* `lang` is an object encapsulating a language; if {nil}, the object for language code {"und"} (undetermined) will
be used. `lang` is used when computing the sort key (either from the subpage name or sort base).
* `sort_key` is placed in the category invocation, and indicates how the page will sort in the respective category.
Normally '''do not use this'''. Instead, leave it {nil}, and if you need to a control the sort order, use
{sort_base}, so that language-specific normalization is applied on top of the specified sort base. If neither
{sort_key} nor {sort_base} is specified, the default is to apply language-specific normalization to the subpage
name; see below.
* `sort_base` lets you override the default sort key while still maintaining appropriate language-specific
normalization. If {nil} is specified, this defaults to the subpage name, which is the portion of the full pagename
after subtracting the namespace prefix (and, in certain namespaces such as {User:}, but notably not in the
mainspace, after subtracting anything up through the final slash). The actual sort key is derived from the sort
base approximately by lowercasing, applying language-specific normalization and then uppercasing; note that the
same process is applied in deriving the sort key when no sort base is specified. For example, for French, Spanish,
etc. the normalization process maps accented letters to their unaccented equivalents, so that e.g. in French,
{{m|fr|ça}} sorts after {{m|fr|ca}} (instead of after the default Wikimedia sort order, which is approximately
based on Unicode sort order and places ç after z) and {{m|fr|côté}} sorts after {{m|fr|coté}} (instead of between
c and d). Similarly, in Russian the normalization process converts Cyrillic ё to a string consisting of Cyrillic е
followed by U+10FFFF, so that effectively ё sorts after е instead of the default Wikimedia sort, which (I think)
puts ё after я, the last letter of the Cyrillic alphabet.
* `force_output` forces normal output in all namespaces. Normally, nothing is output if the page isn't in the main,
Appendix:, Thesaurus:, Reconstruction: or Citations: namespaces.
* `sc` is a script object; if nil, the default will be derived from the sort base (or its default value, the
subpage name) by calling {lang:findBestScript()}. The value of `sc` is used during the sort base normalization
process; for example, languages with multiple scripts will often have script-specific normalization processes.

Given a type (as a string) and an arbitrary number of entities, checks whether all of those entities are language,
family, script, writing system or Wikimedia language objects. Useful for error handling in functions that require
one of these kinds of object.
If `noErr` is set, the function returns false instead of throwing an error, which allows customised error handling to
be done in the calling function.
