Mòdul:String3

--[[

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 parameter. Depending on the intended use, it may be advantageous to either preserve or remove such whitespace.

Global options

   ignore_errors: If set to 'true' or 1, any error condition will result in
       an empty string being returned rather than an error message.

   error_category: If an error occurs, specifies the name of a category to
       include with the error message.  The default category is
       [Category:Errors reported by Module String].

   no_category: If set to 'true' or 1, no category will be added if an error
       is generated.

Unit tests for this module are available at Module:String/tests. ]]

--[[ len

This function returns the length of the target string.

Usage: 13 OR 13

Parameters

   s: The string whose length to report

If invoked using named parameters, Mediawiki will automatically remove any leading or trailing whitespace from the target string. ]] function p.len( frame ) local new_args = _getParameters( frame.args, {'s'} ) local s = new_args['s'] or return mw.ustring.len( s ) end

--[[ sub

This function returns a substring of the target string at specified indices.

Usage: target_string OR target_string

Parameters

   s: The string to return a subset of
   i: The fist index of the substring to return, defaults to 1.
   j: The last index of the string to return, defaults to the last character.

The first character of the string is assigned an index of 1. If either i or j is a negative value, it is interpreted the same as selecting a character by counting from the end of the string. Hence, a value of -1 is the same as selecting the last character of the string.

If the requested indices are out of range for the given string, an error is reported. ]] function p.sub( frame ) local new_args = _getParameters( frame.args, { 's', 'i', 'j' } ) local s = new_args['s'] or local i = tonumber( new_args['i'] ) or 1 local j = tonumber( new_args['j'] ) or -1

local len = mw.ustring.len( s )

-- Convert negatives for range checking if i < 0 then i = len + i + 1 end if j < 0 then j = len + j + 1 end

if i > len or j > len or i < 1 or j < 1 then return _error( 'Índex fora del rang de la cadena' ) end if j < i then return _error( 'Índexs de la cadena no ordenats' ) end

return mw.ustring.sub( s, i, j ) end

--[[ match

This function returns a substring from the source string that matches a specified pattern.

Usage: Error de Lua a Mòdul:String a la línia 230: attempt to index global 'str' (a nil value). OR Error de Lua a Mòdul:String a la línia 230: attempt to index global 'str' (a nil value).

Parameters

   s: The string to search
   pattern: The pattern or string to find within the string
   start: The index within the source string to start the search.  The first
       character of the string has index 1.  Defaults to 1.
   match: In some cases it may be possible to make multiple matches on a single
       string.  This specifies which match to return, where the first match is
       match= 1.  If a negative number is specified then a match is returned
       counting from the last match.  Hence match = -1 is the same as requesting
       the last match.  Defaults to 1.
   plain: A flag indicating that the pattern should be understood as plain
       text.  Defaults to false.
   nomatch: If no match is found, output the "nomatch" value rather than an error.

If invoked using named parameters, Mediawiki will automatically remove any leading or trailing whitespace from each string. In some circumstances this is desirable, in other cases one may want to preserve the whitespace.

If the match_number or start_index are out of range for the string being queried, then this function generates an error. An error is also generated if no match is found. If one adds the parameter ignore_errors=true, then the error will be suppressed and an empty string will be returned on any failure.

--[[ pos

This function returns a single character from the target string at position pos.

Usage:Error del modul «String»: Indici en defòra del reng de la cadena ORError del modul «String»: Indici en defòra del reng de la cadena

Parameters

   target: The string to search
   pos: The index for the character to return

If invoked using named parameters, Mediawiki will automatically remove any leading or trailing whitespace from the target string. In some circumstances this is desirable, in other cases one may want to preserve the whitespace.

The first character has an index value of 1.

If one requests a negative value, this function will select a character by counting backwards from the end of the string. In other words pos = -1 is the same as asking for the last character.

A requested value of zero, or a value greater than the length of the string returns an error. ]] function p.pos( frame ) local new_args = _getParameters( frame.args, {'target', 'pos'} ) local target_str = new_args['target'] or local pos = tonumber( new_args['pos'] ) or 0

return mw.ustring.sub( target_str, pos, pos ) end

--[[ find

This function allows one to search for a target string or pattern within another string.

Usage: 0 OR 0

Parameters

   source: The string to search
   target: The string or pattern to find within source
   start: The index within the source string to start the search, defaults to 1
   plain: Boolean flag indicating that target should be understood as plain
       text and not as a Lua style regular expression, defaults to true

If invoked using named parameters, Mediawiki will automatically remove any leading or trailing whitespace from the parameter. In some circumstances this is desirable, in other cases one may want to preserve the whitespace.

This function returns the first index >= "start" where "target" can be found within "source". Indices are 1-based. If "target" is not found, then this function returns 0. If either "source" or "target" are missing / empty, this function also returns 0.

This function should be safe for UTF-8 strings. ]] function p.find( frame ) local new_args = _getParameters( frame.args, {'source', 'target', 'start', 'plain' } ) local source_str = new_args['source'] or local pattern = new_args['target'] or local start_pos = tonumber(new_args['start']) or 1 local plain = new_args['plain'] or true

--[[ replace

This function allows one to replace a target string or pattern within another string.

Usage: source_str OR source_string

Parameters

   source: The string to search
   pattern: The string or pattern to find within source
   replace: The replacement text
   count: The number of occurences to replace, defaults to all.
