Module:Versions

Module:Versions

Provides utility functions related to game versions by referencing the dataset defined in Module:Versions/data.

This module provides the following function(s):

• get - renders an InfoboxNavRow with the prev and next versions populated correspondingly.
• latest - returns the latest version string.

Usage

Inside Template:VersionInfobox

The module is invoked by the template to render navigation buttons.

{{#invoke:Versions|get|{{{version|{{BASEPAGENAME}}}}}}}

The version parameter defaults to the current page name if not specified. The module returns a Template:InfoboxNavRow invocation with the previous and next update versions as parameters.

Return latest version

Returns the latest version, i.e. the current last entry in Module:Versions/data, as a string.

{{#invoke:Versions|latest}}
