![]() | This module depends on the following other modules: |
Lua error in Module:TNT at line 159: Missing JsonConfig extension; Cannot load https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Data:I18n/Uses TemplateStyles.tab.
Note: The code which this module's main function (coord
) outputs is directly parsed and/or manipulated by Module:Location map and other functions of this module itself (coord2text
and coordinsert
). If the structure of the output changes (for example, to use the <mapframe>
and <maplink>
tags), please update the aforementioned scripts as well.
Using the module with coordinsert
When using the Template:Tl template inside another template, like an infobox, there may be parameters (like type:airport
) which should be added automatically. To do so, do something like this:
{{#if:{{{coordinates|}}}|{{#invoke:Coordinates|coordinsert|{{{coordinates|}}}|parameter1:value1|parameter2:value2|parameter3:value3…}}|
Do not add more vertical bars |
than necessary.
Using the module with coord2text to extract latitude or longitude
Developers maintaining legacy code may need to extract latitude or longitude to use a parameters in other code, or a mathematical expression. The module's "coord2text" function can be used to extract data from the Template:Tl template. To extract the latitude from a Coord template, use:
{{#invoke:coordinates|coord2text|{{Coord|57|18|22|N|4|27|32|E}}|lat}}
→
To extract the longitude, use:
{{#invoke:coordinates|coord2text|{{Coord|57|18|22|N|4|27|32|E}}|long}}
→ Lua error in mw.text.lua at line 245: bad argument #1 to 'len' (string expected, got nil).
