Module:Lua banner

This template is used to indicate that a template uses one or more Lua modules (pages in the Module: namespace). It is placed at the top of the template's /doc page. It automatically adds a floating right notification box, and it adds the template to Category:Lua-based templates, or one of its subcategories.

Usage

Basic: {{Lua|module name}}
All parameters: {{Lua|module 1|module 2|module 3|…|category=custom category|nocat=true}}

At least one module name is required.

Examples

Specifying one module: {{Lua|Module:Map}}

This template uses Lua:

Module:Map (sandbox)

Specifying multiple modules: {{Lua|Module:Map|Module:Coordinates}}

This template uses Lua:

Failing to specify at least one Lua module: {{Lua}}

Error: no modules specified

Categorization

Template category

This template adds pages to Category:Lua-based templates if the page is in the template namespace and it is not a /doc, /sandbox, /sandbox2 or /testcases subpage. You can specify a different category with the |category= parameter, such as |category=Lua String-based templates.

Some modules have a default category other than Category:Lua-based templates:

Module:Math has the default category Category:Templates based on the Math Lua module.
Module:String has the default category Category:Templates based on the String Lua module.

Error category

If no modules are specified, the transcluded page will be added to Category:Lua templates with errors.

Categorization suppression

To suppress all categorization, use |nocat=true, or any of the other standard Boolean "truthy" values: yes, y and 1.
