ParseTemplates
[edit source]ParseTemplates(InputText, dontEscape) will attempt to parse all {{Templates}} on a page, handling multiple factors such as and {{{Variables}}} among other complex syntax. Due to the complexity of the function, it is considerably slow, and should be used carefully. The function returns a list of template objects in order of appearance, which have the following properties:
- Args: A key-value set of arguments, not in order
- ArgOrder: A list of keys in the order they appear in the template
- Children: A list of template objects that are contained within the existing template, in order of appearance. Only immediate children are listed
- Name: The name of the template
- Text: The raw text of the template
If the second parameter, dontEscape, is set to true, the inputted text won't be ran through the PrepareText function.
