Template:TmpvTemplate:Tmpv

This template uses Lua:

Module:Template parameter value (sandbox)

Usage

The purpose of this template is to gain the value of a template's parameter (named or numbered) in an article, for usage elsewhere. For example, gaining the value of the |num_episodes= parameter in the {{Infobox television}} template in an article, to use in another article.

This template works with named or numbered parameters; i.e. it can get the first parameter of {{Start date}} (the year). This template is case-sensitive; i.e. setting |Viewers= will not match |viewers=. Make sure that you are listing the article where the template exists, not where it's transcluded to.

Basic Syntax

{{Template parameter value|ARTICLE|TEMPLATE|TEMPLATE-COUNT|PARAMETER|PARAMETER-COUNT}}

Template data

A template to grab the value of parameters from templates on a page

Template parameters[Edit template data]
This template prefers inline formatting of parameters.
Parameter		Description	Type	Status
Page	`1`	The page to grab templates from	Page name	required
Template	`2`	The template to look for in the target page	String	required
Template index	`3`	Which occurrence of the template to check for parameters in. Set to -1 for last occurrence (other negative numbers not supported).	Number	optional
Parameter	`4`	The name of the parameter to check for	String	required
Parameter index	`5`	Which occurrence of the parameter to check for in the template. Does not apply if "Ignore subtemplates" is used	Number	optional
Ignore subtemplates	`ignore_subtemplates` `ist`	Giving this a value will make the template ignores subtemplates and their parameters when looking for a value in a template. Can be used for more precise grabbing of parameters as opposed to using a parameter index Default no	Boolean	optional
Ignore blank values	`ignore_blank`	Ignores keys with blank values when deciding which index of a parameter to use. This option does nothing when using ignore_subtemplates Default no	Boolean	optional
Only subtemplates	`only_subtemplates`	The inverse to ignore_subtemplates. Only keys that are in subtemplates of the template requested will be considered. ignore_subtemplates will take precedence over this option if both are enabled Default no	Boolean	optional
Don't process	`dontprocess`	If enabled, the returning result won't be processed into wikitext, and will be returned as raw data. Default no	Boolean	optional
Treat as regex	`treat_as_regex`	Treats the Templates input as a lua regex instead of a raw string Default no	Boolean	optional
