Module:Weather/doc

This is a documentation subpage for Module:Weather.
It may contain usage information, categories and other content that is not part of the original module page.

This module can be used to display temperatures in a table. It is under development and is intended to be efficient so a page can hold many tables.

Input numbers must use a hyphen if negative (Unicode minus "−" would give an error).
All displayed numbers (including inputs) use Unicode minus if negative.
The input consists of 13 values, separated by any number of spaces.
Each of the 13 values must be a number. Any invalid value results in the corresponding cell being blank with no error message or tracking category.

The following functions are available:

Function  Input   Output
-------------------------
CtoF       °C     °C (°F)
FfromC     °C     °F (°C)
CfromF     °F     °C (°F)
FtoC       °F     °F (°C)

The output can be examined by entering the following example at Special:ExpandTemplates. The output from each of the following lines is identical.

{{#invoke:weather|CtoF|-10 -5 0 5 10 15 20 25 30 35 40 45 50}}

{{#invoke:weather|CfromF|14 23 32 41 50 59 68 77 86 95 104 113 122}}

Optional parameter

|palette=name
Where name is the built-in name of a palette:
cool (default)

cool2 (modified)

cool2avg (modified and intended for average temperatures)

Testing

One of the following can be previewed in a sandbox to display graphs showing how the red/green/blue colors vary with temperature. A table of the resulting colors is also displayed; the table shows °C values.

{{#invoke:weather|show}}
{{#invoke:weather|show|palette=cool}}
{{#invoke:weather|show|palette=cool2}}
{{#invoke:weather|show|palette=cool2avg}}
