Template:Split

Template Documentation  

This document is transcluded from Template:Split/doc.

Introduction

This template will split strings by incoming parameters, and saved one by one using multiple variables, mostly used in templates.

Usage

{{Split
|str = String to be split
|ptn = Characters or regular expressions used for splitting, supports formatting inside nowiki tags
|name = Variable prefixes for split sections, default is foo
|reg = When "on", regular mode is enabled.
}}

In which:

• {{#var:(n)}} Holds the string obtained by splitting.
• {{#var:.count}} holds the total number of strings obtained by splitting.
• str, ptn and name also correspond to the anonymous parameters 1, 2, and 3, respectively

Examples

Example 1

{{Split|Hello,world!|,}}

Split 1: {{#var:foo1}}

Split 2: {{#var:foo2}}

Total number of strings obtained by splitting: {{#var:foo.count}}

Split 1: Hello

Split 2: world!

Total number of strings obtained by splitting: 2

Example 2

{{split|str=a123b456c|ptn%d+|reg=on}}

Split 1: {{#var:foo1}}

Split 2: {{#var:foo2}}

Split 3: {{#var:foo3}}

Total number of strings obtained by splitting: {{#var:foo.count}}

Split 1: p

Split 2: t

Split 3: n

Total number of strings obtained by splitting: 6

Example 3

{{split|Moegirl+Welcome+pedia! ++to|+|str}}

{{#var:str2}}{{#var:str5}}{{#var:str1}}{{#var:str3}}

Total number of strings obtained by splitting: {{#var:str.count}}

WelcometoMoegirlPedia!

Total number of strings obtained by splitting: 5

(Because of one of the consecutive plus signs, is given an empty string)

Example 4

Use this template to split a received string in an agreed format in a template, used as multiple parameters. Because it's a template, no examples can be made here.

{{#fornumargs: num |value
|{{split|{{#var:value}}|,}}
{{ruby|{{#var:foo1}}|{{#var:foo2}}}}
}}
