Template:O/doc

	This template uses Lua:
	Module:O

This template encodes its arguments into JSON and then hex encodes the JSON. These arguments can then later be decoded by Module:O. This allows templates to use more complicated data structures for their arguments with ordinary wikitext syntax.

The name of this module is short for Object, which is what JSON calls its key-value pair data structure.

Usage

{{PunisherTable
  |standing={{o
    |{{o|frames=-10|id=Bryan-2,3}}
    |{{o|frames=-10|id=Bryan-1,4}}
  }}
  |crouching={{o
    |{{o|frames=-11|id=ws4}}
    |{{o|frames=-15|id=ws1|combo=?}}
  }}
}}

Later, in a Lua module called by {{PunisherTable}}:

local O = require("O")

p.main = function(frame) do
  local standing = O.decode( frame:getParent().args.standing )
  for k,v in pairs(standing)
    standing[k] = O.decode(v)
  end
end
