This is the documentation page, it should be transcluded into the main template page. See Template:Documentation for more information

This template uses Module:Grid, with data stored in Module:Grid/Aliases.
These scripts are written in Lua. Please see wp:Lua and mw:Extension:Scribunto to learn more.

The grid template is a singular grid cell, which has the ability to display any image (usually a block or item) that is uploaded as Grid <Name>.png, within it.

Usage

All inputs are optional:

{{Grid
|[Title]Mod:Name,Amount[Description]; [Title2]Mod2:Name2,Amount2[Description2]
|mod=Default mod (useful for animations and layout templates)
|default=Image always shown under the main image
|align=Vertical Alignment
|link=Link override
|title=Text show on mouseover
|class=Adds additional classes to the .grid class
|style=Adds styling to the .grid
|imgclass=Adds additional classes to the .item
|numstyle=Adds styling to the number
}}

Parts

The first parameter is a special parameter consisting of various "parts" grouped together in frames (delimited by ;) which will be display one after another if JavaScript is enabled. Every part is optional, but without "name", won't do anything.

Simple example

To display this image File:Grid Raw Porkchop.png with an amount of 20 you would put: {{Grid|Raw Porkchop,20}}

shows

20

An amount of 2–999 is supported, anything else will not be displayed.

If no image is specified, the background will be added on its own, this could be used to do layouts like so:

{{Grid|TNT}}{{Grid|TNT}}{{Grid}}{{Grid}}{{Grid|TNT}}{{Grid|TNT}}<br>
{{Grid|TNT}}{{Grid|TNT}}{{Grid}}{{Grid}}{{Grid|TNT}}{{Grid|TNT}}<br>
{{Grid}}{{Grid}}{{Grid|TNT}}{{Grid|TNT}}{{Grid}}{{Grid}}<br>
{{Grid}}{{Grid|TNT}}{{Grid|TNT}}{{Grid|TNT}}{{Grid|TNT}}{{Grid}}<br>
{{Grid}}{{Grid|TNT}}{{Grid|TNT}}{{Grid|TNT}}{{Grid|TNT}}{{Grid}}<br>
{{Grid}}{{Grid|TNT}}{{Grid}}{{Grid}}{{Grid|TNT}}{{Grid}}

shows

However this is really inefficient and produces ugly code, so don't do this. Use Template:BlockGrid or Template:Schematic instead.

Note: Banner variations are not included due to how many there are.

The above aliases can be used to shorten common items, such as all wood blocks or adding parts to certain names by default.

{{Grid|Any Wood;Golden Apple}}

shows

When using the alias, parts can be added which will override any parts in the alias.

{{Grid|Any Wood,4;[&oShiny Apple]Enchanted Golden Apple}}

shows

444444

Mods can specify an additional aliases table using the modaliases parameter.

Titles and description

The title parameter can be used to set a title for all frames.

{{Grid|Raw Porkchop; Cooked Porkchop|title=Smelly Pork}}

shows

To remove the title, set it to "none": {{Grid|Raw Porkchop; Cooked Porkchop|title=none}}

shows

However, the first bracketed text can be used to specify a title for each frame individually, and also supports standard formatting codes using & instead of §. If the title only contains formatting codes and no actual text, the formatting will be added to the normal title.

{{Grid|[&b]Diamond Sword}}

shows

The last bracketed text can be used to specify a description, this also supports standard formatting codes, and can also have multiple lines by using forward slashes (/).

{{Grid|[&b&oExcalibur]Iron Sword[&7Smite V/Fire Aspect I//&9+6 Attack Damage]}}

shows

Align

Align uses the vertical-align CSS property. For example to align to the middle: Smells like {{Grid|Raw Porkchop|align=middle}} in here!

shows

Smells like in here!

Default

Default is always shown and is placed under the image. {{Grid|default=layout Brewing Empty}}{{Grid|Splash Mundane Potion|default=layout Brewing Empty}}

shows

Link

To change the link for all frames from the image name put: {{Grid|Charcoal|link=Coal#Charcoal}}

shows

To remove the link, set link to none: {{Grid|Charcoal|link=none}}

shows

Note that this retains the title.

Mods

A mod image is specified with the Mod: section of the name (or by setting a default mod using the mod parameter). The image link will then link to the mod sub-page allowing correct linking of mod images. The uploaded image name should by uploaded as Grid <Name> (<Mod>).png and should be added to the Grid mods category, which prevents them from being confused with official Minecraft items.
For example, to display this mod image File:Grid Bronze Sword (IndustrialCraft).png: {{Grid|IndustrialCraft:Bronze Sword}} (or {{Grid|mod=IndustrialCraft|Bronze Sword}})

shows

File:Grid Bronze Sword (IndustrialCraft).png

Grids can be animated with a theoretically unlimited amount of frames, between mod items and vanilla items. Frames are separated by semi-colons (;).

{{Grid|
Dirt;
TNT,64;
IndustrialCraft:Bronze Sword,6;
;
Grass Block,5;
Sand;
Gold Helmet,12;
IndustrialCraft:Bronze Helmet,2;
IndustrialCraft:Copper,50;
Redstone
}}

shows

64File:Grid Bronze Sword (IndustrialCraft).png6
5File:Grid Gold Helmet.png12File:Grid Bronze Helmet (IndustrialCraft).png2File:Grid Copper (IndustrialCraft).png50

As you can see, the mod had to be specified for each mod frame, this is where the default mod parameter is useful. {{Grid|mod=IndustrialCraft|Bronze Sword,6; ; Bronze Helmet,12; Copper,50; Copper Dust}}

shows

File:Grid Bronze Sword (IndustrialCraft).png6
File:Grid Bronze Helmet (IndustrialCraft).png12File:Grid Copper (IndustrialCraft).png50File:Grid Copper Dust (IndustrialCraft).png

To use a vanilla minecraft item when a default mod is set, use "vanilla" (shortcut "v") or "minecraft" (shortcut "mc") as the mod (case insensitive).

{{Grid|mod=IndustrialCraft|
Vanilla:Dirt;
vanilla:TNT,64;
Bronze Sword,6;
;
V:Grass Block,5;
v:Sand;
Minecraft:Gold Helmet,12;
Bronze Helmet,2;
Copper,50;
mc:Redstone Dust
}}
