Template:For nowiki/doc
Appearance
This is a documentation subpage for Template:For nowiki. It may contain usage information, categories and other content that is not part of the original template page. |
This template is used on approximately 9,000 pages and changes may be widely noticed. Test changes in the template's /sandbox or /testcases subpages, or in your own user subpage. Consider discussing changes on the talk page before implementing them. |
This template uses Lua: |
This template implements a foreach loop. It interprets a given wikitext (unlike {{For loop}}, which calls a specified template) once for each item in the list.
Usage
[edit]{{For nowiki|separator|<nowiki>wikitext</nowiki>
|item1|item2|...}} {{For nowiki|separator|<nowiki>wikitext</nowiki>
|count=count|start=start}}
separator
is inserted between the results ofwikitext
interpretation. Whitespace is preserved.wikitext
is interpreted once for each item in the list. It then may use{{{1}}}
to get the item value, and{{{i}}}
to get its position in the list (starting from 1), as well as any parameters that were passed to{{for nowiki}}
. It may also contain template calls. To use a parameter passed to the calling template, surround it with</nowiki>
...<nowiki>
(the opening and closing tags are swapped) or pass the parameter directly to{{for nowiki}}
if its name doesn't conflict with any reserved parameters.
Count form
[edit]The second form of this template using a |count=
parameter interprets the given wikitext count
times, passing each integer between 1 and that count
as both |1=
and |i=
each time. By default, iteration starts from 1. Use parameter |start=number
to start from a different number. Then the iteration will go from start
to start+count-1
.
