Help:TemplateData/vi

 là một phần mở rộng được sử dụng để lưu trữ thông tin về bản mẫu wikitext và các thông số của nó để giao diện chỉnh sửa có thể truy xuất và hiển thị thông tin này trong trình chỉnh sửa mẫu của nó, do đó giúp người dùng dễ dàng thêm và chỉnh sửa mẫu trên các trang.

Kể từ tháng 4 năm 2019, TemplateData là một phần của trải nghiệm người dùng mặc định cho tất cả người dùng trên tất cả các wiki của Wikimedia khi họ thêm một bản mẫu, bao gồm cả người dùng chưa đăng ký. Cả hai nguồn mặc định và biên tập viên trực quan kết hợp nó trong một số cách. Nếu bạn có wiki riêng, bạn sẽ cần phải cài đặt.

Adding TemplateData to a template for this extension to use involves inserting a small, simple block of JSON (explained below) into the template's documentation page. You can do this manually or with the TemplateData editor, a graphical user interface you can access on a template's "Edit"/"Edit source" pages on wikis with the TemplateData extension installed. The JSON contains a list of the template's parameters and information about those parameters and about the template as a whole (see below for details).

Templates that contain TemplateData will display this information in the user interface when a user adds the template. In some cases, it will change how the editor behaves when you use it to edit or insert a given template, making it much easier for users to perform the steps needed to add a given template.

Lịch sử
TemplateData was originally developed in early 2013 with in mind, which was in MediaWiki testing stages at the time. VisualEditor is the main visual editing interface for Wikimedia wikis, and TemplateData allowed it to have a more useful interface when adding templates. It was officially supported by VisualEditor immediately. As VisualEditor was rolled out to the various major Wikimedia wikis as a default feature from 2013 through 2016, TemplateData became a part of them as well.

In December 2016, the VisualEditor interface was made available for editing source code as a beta feature. Nó cũng còn được gọi là Trình soạn thảo mã nguồn 2017 This brought the features of TemplateData to source editing for the first time.

In March 2018, Sam Wilson developed, a GUI template editor extension for the default Wikimedia source editor, (otherwise known as the 2010 wikitext editor), designed to make the process of adding templates easier by using information from TemplateData. In April 2019, TemplateWizard was made a default part of the 2010 wikitext editor on all Wikimedia wikis. This meant that TemplateData was now a default part of both the visual editor and the source editor on Wikimedia wikis.

Thêm hoặc chỉnh sửa TemplateData
To add or edit TemplateData, first navigate to a template's page, located at "/Template:Templatename".

Checking the current state
Before adding or editing TemplateData, check whether the template has a documentation subpage. Then check whether the template already contains TemplateData and, if so, whether it's located on the template page or the documentation subpage.

Documentation subpages
There are two main ways templates on most Wikimedia wikis store their usage notes and other data that shouldn't be included in the actual template itself, like categories the template should be contained in:

On pages like this, the Documentation template transcludes all the /doc page's content onto the template page, keeping the template's source code much cleaner.
 * The vast majority of templates keep usage notes and other data that doesn't belong on the template page itself on a documentation subpage: "/Template:Templatename/doc".
 * On templates with documentation subpages, the "Test Template Info-Icon - Version (2).svg Template documentation" heading will be followed by links such as [view], [edit], [history] and [purge].

You can spot it on these pages by looking for an occurrence of  between  tags.
 * A few template pages have retained that information on the template's main page.

Different wikis may present all this differently. Rarely, main template pages may still contain documentation even when you've checked all of the foregoing; here, a user will have added a custom /doc page title between " " and " " and then added content after " ".

You can also look for a notice at the bottom of the page similar to this: "The above documentation is transcluded from Template:Templatename/doc".

Templates without documentation subpages
If a template doesn't have a documentation subpage, create it and move the template's documentation there (or a placeholder for it). Then you can add TemplateData to the documentation subpage.

Creating the subpage and moving the documentation
.

To create the documentation subpage, click "Edit"/"Edit source" on the main template page; look for the tags and their contents (usually at the bottom).

Nó sẽ trông như thế này:

You may also find that it already contains TemplateData. If so, it will look something like this:

Select everything after " " and before "" and cut it into your clipboard or save it in a temporary document. Delete " ", leaving only the following:

Bây giờ, lưu trang lại.

Now, to create the new subpage, look at your browser's address bar and add  to the end of the URL. Press Enter, then choose the option to create a new page.

If this wiki has a Documentation subpage notice template, add it at the top of the new page. You may also wish to add other templates, such as a Purge button or Purge link (if supported by the wiki in question). See m:Help:Template documentation for more info.

Insert the text you cut or saved in the previous text (beneath the notice template, if applicable).

Wrap any categories in tags so that they apply only to the template's main page:

Many wikis have a template. Use this template here if it's likely that the template you're editing exists in a sandbox version (located at ) in order to prevent the categories from applying to the sandbox page:

Sau đó, nhấn "Xuất bản trang".

You can now add and edit the TemplateData on the documentation subpage using the instructions described in.

Adding and editing TemplateData on the main template page
If you can't create the  page, you can add and edit TemplateData on the template's main page by following the instructions in.

If a template has a documentation subpage, check both the main page and the documentation subpage for the presence of TemplateData (the  tag followed by an array inside curly brackets:   ).

Alternatively, the TemplateData extension can perform this check for you. Click "Edit" or "Edit source" on either page. If the template already has TemplateData on either page, you will see a yellow notice at the top of the page saying either:


 * "Please note: there is already a TemplateData block on the related page "Template:Templatename/doc"", or


 * "Please note: there is already a TemplateData block on the related page "Template:Templatename""

If the template has TemplateData on its documentation subpage

If the template has TemplateData on its documentation subpage, this is the page you should edit. You can do this by clicking the "[edit]" located after the heading " Template documentation" (or similar), or, if you are already on the /doc page, by clicking "Edit" or "Edit source" at the top. Follow the guidance at to add or edit the TemplateData.

If the template has TemplateData on its main page

If the template has TemplateData on its main page, you once again have two options:


 * You can either move to its documentation subpage. This is the preferred option.
 * Or, you can edit it on the main template page.

Moving TemplateData to the documentation subpage

To do this, click "Edit"/"Edit source" on the main template page, and look for the tags, enclosed within  tags. Nó sẽ trông như thế này:

Cut only the tags and their contents out of the code, then save the page.

Next, edit the documentation subpage by clicking the "[edit]" located after the heading " Template documentation" (or similar).

Type a heading, like "TemplateData", then beneath it paste the TemplateData.

You can now edit the TemplateData based on the guidance at.

Editing TemplateData on the main template page

If you do not wish to move the TemplateData to the /doc page, you can edit it on the main template page. Tham khảo để biết cách sửa đổi TemplateData.

If the template does not yet have TemplateData but has a doc subpage

If the template does not yet have TemplateData, you should add it to the documentation subpage.

Do this by clicking the "[edit]" located after the heading " Template documentation" (or similar), or, if you are already on the /doc page, by clicking "Edit" or "Edit source" at the top. Type a heading, like "TemplateData", then add it beneath this heading. Đề mục sẽ giải thích cách để thêm TemplateData.

Phương pháp sửa đổi TemplateData
This is a simple way to add or edit TemplateData, recommended for less experienced users.

The TemplateData editor is a graphical user interface for adding and editing TemplateData. Nó là một phần của phần mở rộng TemplateData.

After clicking "Edit" or "Edit source", you will see a button above the editing area and page title that says "".

Clicking this button will take you to the TemplateData Editor. If the page you are on already contains TemplateData, it will automatically appear here.

Features in the above window:


 * The top item chooses the language of the interface text. It allows you to enter text content in multiple languages, displayed to users based on their settings in Preferences, not based on the wiki's language; different wikis have entirely different template databases. If no language TemplateData exists, the interface will only offer users the wiki's own language, but users can click "Add language" to add more inputs. The language code is displayed in brackets next to the parameters to which it can be applied, such as descriptions and labels.
 * The next item is the template description. This is the description of the template as a whole; it's shown to users in numerous places in the template editors while adding a template. This parameter and its effects are outlined here.
 * The third item controls the wikitext formatting of the template. This parameter determines how the wikitext will be laid out when the user clicks "Insert", the two main types being "inline" (on one line) and "block" (on new lines). This parameter and its effects are outlined here.
 * If the user chooses "Custom", they can enter wikitext under "Custom format string" according to rules outlined here, in order to create a custom layout for the template when the user clicks "Insert".


 * The fourth item configures a template's parameters. If parameters have already been defined in TemplateData, this area displays them in a list. If the template's source code specifies parameters for which no TemplateData exists, you may see a button labeled "Add suggested parameters". The editor extracts these suggestions from the template's source code by looking for  or  . Clicking "Add suggested parameters" will add these parameters using their names as defined in the source code. A green notice will also appear at the top, for example, "2 new parameters were imported: names of parameters".
 * At the bottom of the window you see an "Add parameter" button. This allows you to add a parameter manually with a custom name.

Continue to the next step by clicking any one of the parameters in the list. This will allow you to edit that parameter's info.



All of these features and their effects are outlined in the section #Within a parameter's name.

When finished, click "Apply". This will automatically insert the TemplateData at the bottom of the page before the tag; or, if already present, it will be updated with the new information without changing its position. The TemplateData text will also be selected when you click "Apply".

The TemplateData editor creates a  parameter at the bottom of the TemplateData (or updates it if it already exists). paramOrder contains the current TemplateData parameters in the order in which they were displayed by the TemplateData editor. You can change the paramOrder by dragging the parameters up and down in the TemplateData editor using the three horizontal bars on the left. and its effects are described here.

After this, click "Save" to save your revision of the page.

Manual method
You can also add or edit TemplateData manually. TemplateData is written in JSON, but you do not need to learn JSON to learn how to create TemplateData. TemplateData follows a few very simple rules and accepts only a few dozen possible predefined parameters and values, typically following a  format.

Adding TemplateData manually

Considerations:


 * If you're adding TemplateData on a template's documentation subpage (recommended), you may add it anywhere on the page; check to see if your language's Wikipedia has a preferred location for it. For example, on the English Wikipedia, TemplateData is typically near the bottom of the documentation page; on the German Wikipedia, it is typically at the top.
 * If you're adding TemplateData on a template's main page (not recommended; see #Prior checks), you must make sure to place it inside the  tags.

Click "Edit" or "Edit source" on the respective page, then move to the place in the page where you intend to add TemplateData and write a heading: "TemplateData".

Many wikis have a TemplateData header template that adds a short notice regarding TemplateData. If your wiki does, add it after the heading.

To start adding TemplateData, type an opening and closing tag and a pair of curly brackets on new lines, with an empty line between them:

Next, add an indent on the empty line between the two curly brackets, and start adding parameters. Details for the parameters can be found at. Most are optional; some are highly recommended.

Parameters can be in any order, but what follows is the order that best conforms to TemplateData documentation and makes the content easiest to use for editors:

Make sure the parameters, for example, in the  object, remain inside that object; otherwise you will trigger an "Unexpected property" error when you try to save.

 Example 

Here is some example TemplateData for a hypothetical cleanup template. Such a template would display a notice and place the page into a dated category based on the month and year entered. The notice might also contain a link to a talk page section. The TemplateData would look something like this:

The corresponding TemplateData documentation would display as follows:

{	"description": "Use this template to indicate that an article is in need of cleanup.", "format": "inline", "params": { "date": { "label": "Month and year", "description": "The month and year that the template was added", "type": "string", "autovalue": " ", "example": "January 2013", "suggested": true },		"reason": { "aliases": ["1"], "label": "Reason", "description": "The reason the article is in need of cleanup", "type": "string" },		"talk": { "aliases": ["talksection"], "label": "Talk page section", "description": "The section of the talk page containing relevant discussion", "type": "string" }	},	"paramOrder": [ "date", "reason", "talk" ] }

TemplateData parameters
All available TemplateData parameters are listed below with a description and example. They are also listed in more technical detail at Extension:TemplateData#Format.

Within a parameter's name
Note: if neither "required", "suggested" nor "deprecated" are set as true for a parameter, its status will show as "optional" in the TemplateData documentation.

Once you're done, hit "save". If you've made errors, it will not let you save (which is disruptive but means you can't break anything). Should you run into errors, explain on the feedback page what you were trying to do, and we will be happy to help.

Note that if you are abusing a hack template to dynamically generate TemplateData, it cannot be checked for errors before saving.

Note that each item of information is enclosed in quotation marks (except for  and  ) and separated from the next bit by a comma (unless it's the last one).

Type parameter
The  parameter is meant to signal to a template editor the nature of a parameter's value. In some cases, template editors have been programmed to modify the user interface for a certain parameter according to this TemplateData value, such as to only allow the user to enter valid values that match the specified type. This parameter does not have any functional effect on the template parameter or its value; it merely controls how template editors see and treat the parameter in editing mode.

How to use

It is used by adding the  parameter, followed by a colon and a space, then adding any of the values listed in the table below in quotation marks.

Example:

Effects

As of February 2020, only 5 of the 13 type values have visible effects in VisualEditor and the 2017 wikitext editor, while 8 have visible effects in TemplateWizard.

The effects of certain values are likely to change as the template editors get updates to support them. One such effort for VisualEditor and the 2017 wikitext editor is tracked in the Phabricator task T55613. A similar effort to get TemplateWizard to support the boolean value is tracked in T200664.

The currently known effects are listed as follows.

Custom formats
When editing the  value, you create custom formats by inputting a set of wikitext symbols using some predefined rules.


 * - start of the template
 * - content (e.g., string, integer or parameter). This underscore serves to indicate the minimum length of a value in characters and can be repeated, like . If this length is not reached, it fills the remaining characters with spaces. This can be used to align all equals signs to a specific position after a parameter (if used with   for new lines).
 * - pipe (separates parameters)
 * - equals sign (precedes the value of a parameter)
 * or pressing the enter key - new line (this will display as  in the entry field)
 * - space (can be used with  to indent new lines)
 * - end of the template

The wikitext should at least meet the minimum of, otherwise there will be an invalid format string error.

Blank boilerplate
You can copy the blank boilerplate below to add new TemplateData to a template. Only the most common tags are included.

Syntax error in JSON / Bad JSON format
These errors occur when saving TemplateData, usually manually edited, with invalid JSON code (duplicate keys/parameters, trailing or missing commas, etc.) in VisualEditor or the 2017 wikitext editor.

"Syntax error in JSON" appears in VisualEditor and the 2017 wikitext editor; "Bad JSON format" appears when editing in the TemplateData GUI editor.

These errors can be difficult to detect and come in too many forms to list. The best way to avoid them is to edit template data exclusively with the TemplateData editor; the best way to detect them once they've occurred is to use an external JSON validator, such as JSONLint, which will highlight errors and aid in fixing them.

The 2010 wikitext editor does not check for invalid JSON thanks to an old, unfixed bug. Pages that contain invalid JSON may throw alarming "Internal error" messages. To fix these errors, your best bet is to use a JSON validator (see above).

Required property "paramOrder(number)" not found.
This error occurs if you state a parameter in  that is not stated in. The number in the square brackets refers to the parameter in  that is missing. It refers to its order in the sequence, but it is one less than its actual position, since  is an array; 0 is the first one, 1 is the second, etc.

To fix this, make sure all parameters stated in  are listed in. Alternatively, you can remove the  object to remove this error.

Invalid value for property "paramOrder(number)".
This error occurs if you state a parameter in  that is not stated in. The number in the square brackets refers to the parameter in  that shouldn't be there. It refers to its order in the sequence, but it is one less than its actual position, since  is an array; 0 is the first one, 1 is the second, etc.

To fix this, make sure all parameters stated in  are listed in. Alternatively, you can remove the  object to remove this error.

Property "params.parametername.required" is expected to be of type "boolean".
This error occurs if you put quotation marks around the value of either  or.

These are boolean values, not strings, therefore they require no quotation marks. To fix this, remove any quotation marks around the values  or   for these parameters.

Property "format" is expected to be ...
If the  parameter exists but its value is not ,   or a valid format string, you will see the error message "Property "format" is expected to be "inline", "block", or a valid format string."

To fix this, make sure the value after  equals   or   and that there no spelling mistakes. Alternatively, if it's wikitext, make sure it contains a minimum of  and that there are no mistakes in the syntax that would normally cause a template to fail, such as duplicate equals signs or missing/duplicate curly brackets; see the section #Custom formats for the syntax for custom formats. Alternatively, you can remove the  parameter to remove this error.

Unexpected property "parametername".
This error occurs if you state a parameter that does not exist in TemplateData. This is probably due to spelling mistakes.

It also occurs if you state a parameter in any TemplateData object that is not a parameter of that object. This may be due to spelling mistakes, or you may have written the parameter of one TemplateData object under another object that it doesn't belong to.

For example, you might have written the parameter  under the root TemplateData object instead of inside  :

Alternatively, if the unexpected parameter is under a template parameter inside, you'll see its name after "params.parametername." in the error.

To fix this, make sure there aren't any spelling mistakes in the parameter names, and make sure your parameters are in their correct location. Additionally, make sure you don't state any parameters that don't exist for a TemplateData object. You can check which parameters exist for an object in the section #TemplateData parameters.

Required property "params" not found.
This error occurs if there is no  object in the TemplateData. This is a necessary object, as it contains all the details of each parameter, so to fix this error, make sure it's added and that there are no spelling mistakes. See the section above on how to add the  parameter.

Limitations and feedback

 *  Missing features  – TemplateData is an example of a tool that was made available with few features, in hope that users would help to guide development of features that they desired. If you'd like to request new features for TemplateData, please let us know.
 *  Delays in showing in templates  – After adding TemplateData to a template, the metadata should be visible immediately when the template is opened in the visual editor. However, it is possible that it will take several hours before the metadata will show. You can force an update by making a null edit to the template page itself (not the documentation subpage). To perform a null edit, open the template page for editing, and save the page without making any change and without adding any edit summary.
 *  Current issues  – A list of current bugs and feature requests is available in the Wikimedia bug tracker.
