Summary[edit]

Lua support routines for simple textual filters.

Entry Points[edit]

  • CleanParentDirectories: (partially) canonicalise passed page name by closing up ".." level references.
e.g. [[Reference/Sub-page/../Sub-Page 2/Page Name]] is transformed into [[Reference/Sub-Page 2/Page Name]].
This is useful because standard parser function {{#titleparts}} will not work with page names containing embedded "/../" sequences.
e.g. {{#titleparts:Reference/Sub-page/../Sub-Page 2/Page Name|1|1}} yields: "Reference/Sub-page/../Sub-Page 2/Page Name",
whereas {{#titleparts:Reference/Sub-Page 2/Page Name|1|1}} yields "Reference".

Utilisation[edit]

Currently used by these templates:

  • {{TOC link}}: Create link internal to a given work; appropriate to current namespace (Page:/Index: or main)
