The Data module exists to translate information from Data: pages to templates/articles.
Arguments[edit source]
<1> (Entity): This argument is taken as the title of the intended Data: page to search through.
E.g.: "Kerbol", "LW-Sw "SWERV""
<2+> (Parameter chain): Arguments 2 and beyond define the parameter chain to search on the data page.
E.g.: "mass", "max_temp", "modules|engine|isp_vac", "modules|generator|outputs|units"
Functions[edit source]
getData: The primary function of the module. Accepts the full argument set to determine the parameter to return from the subject.
getFuelLabels: Used for engine infobox construction. Accepts a part name (only works for engines) for <1> and optionally "alt" for <2>. Returns a line-break separated list of the propellant names used by an engine mode. Should probably be moved to a different Module.
getFuelValues: Used for engine infobox construction. Accepts a part name (only works for engines) for <1> and optionally "alt" for <2>. Returns a line-break separated list of the propellant use rates of an engine mode. Should probably be moved to a different Module.
Examples[edit source]
A list of example JSON sets can be found at Data:Example.
{{#invoke:Data|getData|LV-SW "SWERV"|mass}} - Returns the mass of the "SWERV" in tons, 10.00.
{{#invoke:Data|getData|LV-3000 "Tuba"|modules|engine|thrust|vac}} - Returns the vacuum thrust of the "Tuba" in kilonewtons, 510.0.
