local data = mw.loadData('Module:Namespace detect/data')
This module allows you to output different text depending on the [[WP:NAMESPACE|namespace]] that a given page is in. It is a [[WP:Lua|Lua]] implementation of the {{tl|namespace detect}} template, with a few improvements: all namespaces and all namespace aliases are supported, and namespace names are detected automatically for the local wiki.

This module accepts all subject namespaces as parameters, including [[Wikipedia:Namespace#Aliases|namespace aliases]] and [[Wikipedia:Namespace#Virtual namespaces|virtual namespaces]]. See below for a list of supported values.

* '''other''' - text to return if no parameters for the page's namespace were specified. This text is also returned if {{para|demospace}} is set to an invalid namespace value.

* '''subjectns''' - if on a talk page, use the corresponding subject page. Can be set with values of "yes", "y", "true" or "1".
end

local demospace = fetchValue(args, argKeys.demospace)

return p
&#123;&#123;#invoke:Namespace detect|table|talk=''yes''&#125;&#125;

To include the parameter for talk namespaces, use {{para|talk|yes}}.

== Porting to different wikis ==

This module is designed to be portable. To use it on a different wiki, all you need to do is to change the values in [[Module:Namespace detect/config]]. Instructions are available on that page.

== Technical details ==

The module uses a data page at [[Module:Namespace detect/data]]. This page is loaded with [[mw:Extension:Scribunto/Lua reference manual#mw.loadData|mw.loadData]], which means it is processed once per page rather than once per #invoke. This was done for performance reasons.
