-- Note for translators of this module:
-- This module depends on [[:Template:period color]], [[:template:period start]], and [[:template:period end]].

-- =================

-- Default colors for first 28 bars/periods
local defaultColor = {"#6ca","#ff9","#6cf","#c96","#fcc","#9f9","#96c","#cc6","#ccc","#f66","#6c6","#99f","#c66","#f9c",

--    s = a string argument
-- Returns
--    if s is empty, turn back into nil (considered false by Lua)
local function ignoreBlank(s)
	if s == "" then
		return nil
	end
	return s
end

-- Function to suppress incorrect CSS values
-- Parameters:
--    val = dimensional value 
--    unit = unit of value
--    nonneg = [bool] value needs to be non-negative
--    formatstr = optional format string
-- Returns:
--    correct string for html, or nil if val is negative

-- function to scan argument list for pattern
-- Parameters:
--   args = an argument dict that will be scanned for one or more patterns
--   patterns = a list of Lua string patters to scan for
--   other = a list of other argument specification lists
--      each element o corresponds to a new argument to produce in the results
--         o[1] = key in new argument list
--         o[2] = prefix of old argument
--         o[3] = suffix of old argument
-- Returns:
--   new argument list that matches patterns specified, with new key names
--
-- This function makes the Lua module scalable, by specifying a list of string patterns that
-- contain relevant arguments for a single graphical element, e.g., "period(%d+)". These
-- patterns should have exactly one capture that returns a number.
--
-- When such a pattern is detected, the number is extracted and then other arguments
-- with the same number is searched for. Thus, if "period57" is detected, other relevant
-- arguments like "period57-text" are searched for and, if non-empty, are copied to the
-- output list with a new argument key. Thus, there is {"text","period","-text"}, and
-- "period(%d+)" detects period57, the code will look for "period57-text" in the input
-- and copy it's value to "text" on the output.
--
-- This function thus pulls all relevant arguments for a single graphical item out, and
-- makes an argument list to call a function to produce a single element (such as a bar or note)

	local result = {}
	for _, p in pairs(patterns) do
		for k, v in pairs(args) do

			-- if there is a matching argument, and it's not blank
			-- and we haven't handled that match yet, then find other
			-- arguments and copy them into output arg list. 
			-- We have to handle blank arguments for backward compatibility with the template
			-- we check for an existing output with item m to save time
			if m and v ~= "" and not result[m] then
				local singleResult = {}
				for _, o in ipairs(other) do
					local foundVal = args[(o[2] or "")..m..(o[3] or "")]
					if foundVal then
						singleResult[o[1]] = foundVal
					end
				end
				-- A hack: for any argument number m, there is a magic list of default
				-- colors. We copy that default color for m into the new argument list, in 
				-- case it's useful. After this, m is discarded
				singleResult.defaultColor = defaultColor[m]
				result[m] = singleResult

'''Usage instructions'''

----

Copy the text below, adding multiple bars, legends and notes as required.
<br>Comments, enclosed in <code><!-</code><code>- -</code><code>-></code>, should be removed.

Remember:
* You must use <code>{</code><code>{!}</code><code>}</code> wherever you want a {{!}} to be
: rendered in the timeline
* Large borders will displace bars in many browsers
* Text should not be wider than its containing bar,
: as this may cause compatibility issues
* Units default to [[em (typography){{!}}em]], the height and width of an 'M'.
