Wikipedia does not have the "StringFunctions" series of parser functions (listed below), and is not going to get them (per phab:T8455). Instead, templates use Lua (via Module:String or otherwise), alongside existing parser functions. None of these functions will work, but they have alternatives: #len – use {{#invoke:string|len}}
<string>.partition(separator) returns the sub-string before the separator; the separator; then the sub-string after the separator. Description Splits the given string by the separator and returns the three substrings that together make the original.
This module is intended to provide access to basic string functions. Most of the functions provided here can be invoked with named parameters, unnamed parameters, or a mixture. If named parameters are used, Mediawiki will automatically remove any leading or trailing whitespace from the
Marshalling data between C and Lua functions is also done using the stack. To call a Lua function, arguments are pushed onto the stack, and then the lua_call is used to call the actual function. When writing a C function to be directly called from Lua, the arguments are read from the stack. Here is an example of calling a Lua function from C:

This module is subject to page protection.It is a highly visible module in use by a very large number of pages, or is substituted very frequently. Because vandalism or mistakes would affect many pages, and even trivial editing might cause substantial load on the servers, it is protected from editing.
The Simplified Wrapper and Interface Generator (SWIG) is an open-source software tool used to connect computer programs or libraries written in C or C++ with scripting languages such as Lua, Perl, PHP, Python, R, Ruby, Tcl, and other language implementations like C#, Java, JavaScript, Go, D, OCaml, Octave, Scilab and Scheme.
This module provides utilities for declaring classes in Lua code. It creates global variables, so must be called before require ( 'strict' ) if that is used. The above documentation is transcluded from Module:Lua class/doc .
