This is the documentation page for Module:NavboxGenerator

Not finished.

Overview edit

Create's a navbox from a json file for input where keys are a title div container, and value "Display" is the display text. Each title div container gets smaller and smaller the further it is in the json.

Parameters edit

Within each level of the json:

  • <key> - Title to display in the div/container/box. Can wrap it in <span style="mystyle">key</span> for styling it.
  • Style - Style for the div
  • Display - Text to display below the div
  • <Any other value> - Recursively calls for the contained layer, with <Any other value> as the new <key>

Examples edit

For understanding the input syntax, it is recommended to view the Simple Example first.

Simple Example edit

The input can be seen at Data:ItemNavboxSample.json

{{#invoke:NavboxGenerator|createNavbox|Data:ItemNavboxSample.json}}

Outputs

Lua error: bad argument #1 to 'mw.loadJsonData' ('Data:ItemNavboxSample.json' is not a valid JSON page).

Styled Example edit

The input can be seen at Data:ItemNavbox.json

{{#invoke:NavboxGenerator|createNavbox|Data:ItemNavbox.json}}

Outputs

Lua error: bad argument #1 to 'mw.loadJsonData' ('Data:ItemNavbox.json' is not a valid JSON page).


Needed changes edit

1. Style/Formatting made prettier 2. A way to have the json iterated in order; for some reason mw.loadJsonData doesn't load the keys in order they appear.
