Overview[edit source]

This module consists of one generic function, heroDataArray, and a series of functions that create specific wikitables using the output from heroDataArray.


local p = {}

local allHeroData = mw.loadJsonData("Data:HeroData.json")
local inGameHeroData = {}

-- Just get heroes that are playable
for i, heroData in pairs(allHeroData) do

	end
end

-- heroDataArray takes as argument a table of any length containing keys or 
-- paths of keys in the HeroData JSON, e.g. {Name, MaxHealth, LevelScaling>Health}.
-- A path of keys should be specified as such, with the ">" character separating
-- subsequent keys.

		local out = {}										-- First creating a table to hold data
		for j, key in pairs(args) do						-- Iterate over each key:
			if string.find(key, ">") ~= nil then			-- If the key is actually a path of keys,
				local node = heroData           			-- start with the biggest node heroData, and
				for k in string.gmatch(key, "([^>]+)") do	-- iterate over each key, splitting on ">",
					if node[k] ~= nil then					-- trying the key as a string e.g. "1",
						node = node[k]						
					else									-- else using the key as numeric,
						node = node[tonumber(k)]
					end										-- drilling down the JSON node after node
				end
