Module:Sort

From mediawiki.org
Module documentation

This module sorts a list of items separates by pipes. After the f (not one of the items) a separator is specified (for the pipe write {{!}}).

Example:

{{#invoke:Sort|f|, |g|p|hi|d|h}} gives:

d, g, h, hi, p

{{#invoke:Sort|f|{{!}}|g|p|hi|d|h}} gives:

d|g|h|hi|p

local p = {}
  
function p.f(frame)
	local t = {}
	local delim = frame.args[1]
	-- This adds all arguments, including named parameters,
	-- in an unspecified order, but fields for consecutive values
	-- starting at 1 will probably be in numerical order.
	for n, v in pairs(frame.args) do table.insert(t, v) end
	table.remove(t, 1)
	table.sort(t)
	return table.concat(t, delim)
end
