(Redirected from Template:Mlx)

Template:Module link expanded (edit | talk | history | links | watch | logs) (often abbreviated {{mlx}}) is used to display a module name as a link surrounded by braces with the {{#invoke}} parser function, thus showing the module name as code rather than actually invoking it. Its primary use is in instruction and documentation where it is used to refer to a module by name without invoking it. It is also supports the definition of a function and parameters.

Examples

Code Result Notes
{{mlx|Example}} {{#invoke:Example|function}} Usage without function name. This does not produce a usable invocation.
{{mlx|Example|hello}} {{#invoke:Example|hello}} Usage with a function name.
{{mlx|Example|count_fruits|4=bananas=5|5=apples=10}} {{#invoke:Example|count_fruits|bananas=5|apples=10}} Usage with a function name and parameters.
{{mlx|Example|count_fruits|bananas{{=}}5|apples{{=}}510}} {{#invoke:Example|count_fruits|bananas=5|apples=10}} Usage with a function name and parameters, using {{=}}.
