Template:Ml

{{[[Module:{{{1}}}|#invoke:{{{1}}}]]|function}}

Template documentation (for the above template, sometimes hidden or invisible)

Template:Lt is used to display a module name as a link surrounded by braces with the Template:((#invokeTemplate:)) 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
{{ml|Example}}	{{#invoke:Example|function}}	Usage without function name. This does not produce a usable invocation.
{{ml|Example|hello}}	{{#invoke:Example|hello}}	Usage with a function name.
{{ml|Example|count_fruit|4=bananas=10|5=kiwis=5}}	{{#invoke:Example|count_fruit|bananas=10|kiwis=5}}	Usage with a function name and parameters.
{{ml|Example|count_fruit|Fred|bananas{{=}}10|apples{{=}}5}}	{{#invoke:Example|count_fruit|Fred|bananas=10|apples=5}}	Usage with a function name and parameters, using Template:((=Template:)).
{{ml|Example|}}	{{#invoke:Example}}	Omits the function name
