This module creates links to sections, nicely formatted with the "§" symbol instead of the default "#".
local checkType = require('libraryUtil').checkType
 
== Usage ==
local p = {}
 
=== From wikitext ===
local function makeSectionLink(page, section, display)
display = display or section
page = page or ''
-- MediaWiki doesn't allow these in `page`, so only need to do for `section`
if type(section) == 'string' then
section = string.gsub(section, "{", "{")
section = string.gsub(section, "}", "}")
end
return string.format('[[%s#%s|%s]]', page, section, display)
end
 
From wikitext, this module should be used via the template {{tl|section link}}. Please see the template page for documentation.
local function normalizeTitle(title)
title = mw.ustring.gsub(mw.ustring.gsub(title, "'", ""), '"', '')
title = mw.ustring.gsub(title, "%b<>", "")
return mw.title.new(title).prefixedText
end
 
=== From Lua ===
function p._main(page, sections, options, title)
-- Validate input.
checkType('_main', 1, page, 'string', true)
checkType('_main', 3, options, 'table', true)
if sections == nil then
sections = {}
elseif type(sections) == 'string' then
sections = {sections}
elseif type(sections) ~= 'table' then
error(string.format(
"type error in argument #2 to '_main' " ..
"(string, table or nil expected, got %s)",
type(sections)
), 2)
end
options = options or {}
title = title or mw.title.getCurrentTitle()
 
First, load the module:
-- Deal with blank page names elegantly
if page and not page:find('%S') then
page = nil
options.nopage = true
end
 
<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
-- Make the link(s).
local mSectionLink = require('Module:Section link')
local isShowingPage = not options.nopage
</syntaxhighlight>
if #sections <= 1 then
local linkPage = page or ''
local section = sections[1] or 'Notes'
local display = '§&nbsp;' .. section
if isShowingPage then
page = page or title.prefixedText
if options.display and options.display ~= '' then
if normalizeTitle(options.display) == normalizeTitle(page) then
display = options.display .. ' ' .. display
else
error(string.format(
'Display title "%s" was ignored since it is ' ..
"not equivalent to the page's actual title",
options.display
), 0)
end
else
display = page .. ' ' .. display
end
end
return makeSectionLink(linkPage, section, display)
else
-- Multiple sections. First, make a list of the links to display.
local ret = {}
for i, section in ipairs(sections) do
ret[i] = makeSectionLink(page, section)
end
 
You can then make section links via the _main function.
-- Assemble the list of links into a string with mw.text.listToText.
-- We use the default separator for mw.text.listToText, but a custom
-- conjunction. There is also a special case conjunction if we only
-- have two links.
local conjunction
if #sections == 2 then
conjunction = '&#8203; and '
else
conjunction = ', and '
end
ret = mw.text.listToText(ret, nil, conjunction)
 
<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
-- Add the intro text.
mSectionLink._main(page, sections, options, title)
local intro = '§§&nbsp;'
</syntaxhighlight>
if isShowingPage then
intro = (page or title.prefixedText) .. ' ' .. intro
end
ret = intro .. ret
 
Parameters:
return ret
* <var>page</var> - the page name to link to. Defaults to the full page name of <var>title</var>, or the current title if that is not specified.
end
* <var>sections</var> - an array of section names to link to, or a string to link to just one section name.
end
* <var>options</var> - a table of options. Accepts the following fields:
** <var>nopage</var> - set this to true to avoid displaying the base page name in links.
* <var>title</var> - a default [[mw:Extension:Scribunto/Lua reference manual#Title objects|mw.title object]] to use instead of the current title. Intended for testing purposes.
All parameters are optional.
