== Usage ==

Module that automatically makes a mapframe suitable for an infobox automatically, with minimal user input.

===Generic usage===
Just use the template {{tl|Infobox mapframe}}, following the documentation there. This module may also be imported to another Lua module.

Edit the infobox template (or its sandbox).
Add lines like the following examples to the infobox. Replace numbers ({{kbd|4}}, or {{kbd|97}} to {{kbd|99}}), with the appropriate number based on how many other image or data parameters are already present.
{|style=width:100%
|-
! If placing near the top of infobox !! If placing at/near the bottom of the infobox
|-
|<pre>
| image4     = {{#invoke:Infobox mapframe|auto}}
| caption4   = {{#invoke:Infobox mapframe|autocaption}}
</pre>
|<pre>
| header97   = {{#if:{{{mapframe|}}}|Location}}
| data98     = {{#invoke:Infobox mapframe|auto}}
| data99     = {{#invoke:Infobox mapframe|autocaption}}
</pre>
|}
If the template has a <code><nowiki>{{#invoke:</nowiki>[[Module:Check for unknown parameters|Check for unknown parameters]]<nowiki>}}</nowiki></code>, add the following parameters:
<pre>
| mapframe | mapframe-caption | mapframe-custom | mapframe-id | mapframe-coord | mapframe-wikidata | mapframe-point | mapframe-shape | mapframe-frame-width | mapframe-frame-height | mapframe-shape-fill | mapframe-shape-fill-opacity | mapframe-stroke-color | mapframe-stroke-colour | mapframe-stroke-width | mapframe-marker | mapframe-marker-color | mapframe-marker-colour | mapframe-geomask | mapframe-geomask-stroke-color | mapframe-geomask-stroke-colour | mapframe-geomask-stroke-width | mapframe-geomask-fill | mapframe-geomask-fill-opacity | mapframe-zoom | mapframe-length_km | mapframe-length_mi | mapframe-area_km2 | mapframe-area_mi2 | mapframe-frame-coordinates | mapframe-frame-coord | mapframe-switcher
</pre>
Once this is done, the above parameters will be available to users of the template.
* Defaults values for these parameters can also be specified in the {{kbd|#invoke}} calls above, e.g. <code><nowiki>{{#invoke:Infobox mapframe|auto|mapframe-marker=library}}</nowiki></code> means that the library marker will be used, unless a different value is passed in to the template.
* The maps are off by default, which means maps will not be displayed unless {{para|mapframe|yes}} is present in the template call. To turn maps on by default, in the {{kbd|#invoke}} calls above add {{para|onByDefault|yes}} – which means maps will be displayed unless {{para|mapframe|no}} is present in the template call. {{kbd|onByDefault}} can also be set to a conditional, such as if another parameters is present, e.g. {{para|onByDefault|2=<nowiki>{{#if:{{{pushpin_map|}}}|no|yes}}</nowiki>}}
* Add the new parameters to the document. You can use {{tlx|Infobox mapframe/doc/parameters}}. Specify default values (if any are used in the {{kbd|#invoke}} calls) using by adding parameters in the form {{tt|{{!}}}}''parameter-name''{{tt|{{=}}}}''value''. The default output is shown here collapsed:
{{cot}}
{{Infobox mapframe/doc/parameters}}
{{cob}}
*Parameters can also be added to the TemplateData can also be added by copy-pasting from {{edit|Template:Infobox mapframe/doc/templatedata|Template:Infobox mapframe/doc/templatedata}}
