Template:Json2table - Wikimedia Commons (original) (raw)

Description

[edit]

This template lets you display tabular data stored on Wikimedia Commons as a regular wiki table. It is adapted from the former template at the English Wikipedia (now deleted there and replaced by templates based on en:Module:Tabular data).

Usage

[edit]

{{Json2table|dataset=...}}

• dataset – **required**. Page name in the Commons "Data:" namespace, omitting both the "Data:" prefix and the ".tab" suffix, e.g. for Data:COVID-19 hospitalizations in Denmark.tab, this would be COVID-19 hospitalizations in Denmark.
• row_header – (default true) make the first column header-styled (bold).
• col_header – (default true) use the column names as table headers.
• caption – (default true) use the dataset's description as the table caption.
• empty_cell – (default " ") text to show when the JSON value is null.
• columns – (default *all*) list of column keys (defined in schema.fields.name) to include, separated with "/".
• table_format – (default class="wikitable") extra wikitext for the opening <table> tag.
• bare – (default false) output only the table's rows and cells (wrap them yourself).
• nowiki – (default false) show the table's wikitext instead of rendering it (debugging aid).
• lang – language code to pick the correct translation from multilingual fields; if omitted the site's content language (English on Commons) is used.

Examples

[edit]

Default rendering

[edit]

Using Data:Chart Example Data.tab. (Note that the "pencil" icon after the table caption provides a link to the raw data.)

{{Json2table|dataset=Chart Example Data}} produces

Some meaningless example data about Middle-Earth for showcasing wiki charts.

Default rendering of multilingual data

[edit]

This uses Data:COVID-19 hospitalizations in Denmark.tab. Note that the table caption, column labels, and dates are all rendered in Swedish.

{{Json2table|dataset=COVID-19 hospitalizations in Denmark}} produces

Sjukhusinlagda för Covid-19 i Danmark, inklusive antal patienter i intensivvård och kritiskt tillstånd

Selecting columns and other customizations

[edit]

Using Data:COVID-19 hospitalizations in Denmark.tab. Now the column labels and dates are rendered in Danish.

{{Json2table|dataset=COVID-19 hospitalizations in Denmark |columns=date/hospitalizations |caption=false |row_header=false |lang=da |table_format=class="wikitable sortable"}} produces
