Detailed documentation

export.is_valid_title

function export.is_valid_title(title)

Returns true if the title object is a valid title that is not an interwiki link.

export.is_valid_page_name

function export.is_valid_page_name(pagename)

Returns true if pagename is a valid page title that is not an interwiki link.

export.pagetype

function export.pagetype(title)

Returns the page type of title in a format which can be used in running text.

export.get_section

function export.get_section(content, names, level)

A helper function to return the content of a page section.

content is raw wikitext, name is the requested section, and level is an optional parameter that specifies the required section heading level. If level is not supplied, then the first section called name is returned. name can either be a string or table of section names. If a table, each name represents a section that has the next as a subsection. For example, {"Spanish", "Noun"} will return the first matching section called "Noun" under a section called "Spanish". These do not have to be at adjacent levels ("Noun" might be L4, while "Spanish" is L2). If level is given, it refers to the last name in the table (i.e. the name of the section to be returned).

The returned section includes all of its subsections. If no matching section is found, return nil.

export.get_current_section

function export.get_current_section()

A function which returns the number of the page section which contains the current #invoke.

export.get_current_L2

function export.get_current_L2()

A function which returns the name of the L2 language section which contains the current #invoke.

	Each iteration returns three values: `sec` (the section title), `lvl` (the section level) and `loc` (the index of the section in the given text, from the first equals sign). The section title will be automatically trimmed, and any HTML entities will be resolved.
	The optional parameter `a` (which should be an integer between 1 and 6) can be used to ensure that only headings of the specified level are iterated over. If `b` is also given, then they are treated as a range.
	The optional parameters `a` and `b` can be used to specify a range, so that only headings with levels in that range are returned. If only `a` is given ...
