Module:BuildingLink
From Against the Storm Official Wiki
Documentation for this module may be created at Module:BuildingLink/doc
---
--- This module renders the {{Building_link}} template.
--- https://hoodedhorse.com/wiki/Against_the_Storm/Template:Building_link
---
--- The template #invokes BuildingLink.renderLink(frame), below.
---
--- The template requires an argument, the name of the building to link to.
--- Optionally, the template accepts a second argument to render an icon next
--- to the link. The building is passed to Module:WorkshopsData, which is used
--- to identify the wiki page to link to.
---
--- Using the data returned, this module creates an icon and the name of the
--- building, and wraps both in a link to the building's wiki page. If no icon
--- size is specified, only the name of the building will be rendered by the
--- template.
---
--- The icons are sized consistently by using existing wiki templates,
--- {{ImgS}}, {{ImgM}}, etc. The sizes of the icons are not stored or known by
--- this module.
