Note: Lua patterns are not regular expressions in the traditional POSIX sense, and they are not even a subset of regular expressions. But they share many constructs with regular expressions (more below). Lua patterns are used to define, find and handle a pattern in a string. It can do the common search and replace action in a text, but it has ...
While Lua allows the true and false boolean values, wikicode templates can only express boolean values through strings such as "yes", "no", etc. This module processes these kinds of strings and turns them into boolean input for Lua to process. It also returns nil values as nil, to allow for distinctions between nil and false. The module also ...
reserved_debug - nonzero value forces display of a not particularly useful debug text; The functioncall is written as some.function.name(a,b,c) where some.function.name means something in the Extension:Scribunto/Lua reference manual and a,b,c are the arbitrary variable names you've chosen.
The Lua API's design eliminates the need for manual reference counting (management) in C code, unlike Python's API. The API, like the language, is minimalist. Advanced functions are provided by the auxiliary library, which consists largely of preprocessor macros which assist with complex table operations. The Lua C API is stack based. Lua ...
The Lua software was initially configured with a small, 10-second timeout limit, for the combined operation of all Lua code when formatting a page. By comparison, the markup-based templates have a 60-second timeout (6x higher time limit), and when the servers are slow, the markup-based templates could format perfectly, up through 59 seconds ...
The problem is that in modules with a mixture of tabs and spaces, editors will write their code in CodeEditor with 4-column tabs, and they will expect their code to be indented in the same way that they see in CodeEditor. Then when they save the page, they will see the same code in GeSHi with 8-column tabs, and it will look strange.
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 .
