Hi, When you have a parser function called from within a template, you can of course pass in to it any template parameters, like:
{{#flagicon:{{{Flag image|}}} }} (This is a silly example, but bear with me.) I would like to instead be able to call the parser function without the parameter, like this: {{#flagicon:}} ...and have the parser function directly get the value of the "Flag image" parameter. I believe this can be done within Lua: when a Lua module is invoked from a template, it can get the names and values of the parameters/arguments that have been passed to that template using (I believe) code that looks like the following: frame = mw.getCurrentFrame() origArgs = frame:getParent().args I tried to do something similar within a parser function's code, using various calls like the following, but nothing worked: $frame = $parser->getPreProcessor()->newFrame()->newChild(); $args = $frame->getArguments(); Can this be done? Ideally, it would be great to get an array of all the arguments that have been passed to the template - but just being able to get the value for a specified parameter name would be good enough. -Yaron -- WikiWorks · MediaWiki Consulting · http://wikiworks.com
