Module:Equipment

Documentation for this module may be created at Module:Equipment/doc

-- Module:Equipment is my attempt to create a list of mechs that use a particular 
-- bit of equipment with the idea being you can see what mechs to hunt for particular bits of gear.

local p = {}

local mechs = require('Module:Mech').core
local getArgs = require('Module:Arguments').getArgs

p.componentID = {
  emod_kit_cdhs
}

  local tpl_args = getArgs(frame, {parentFirst=true})

  local equipment = tpl_args[1]
  local where = string.format('Mech.ComponentDefID HOLDS "%s"', equipment)

  -- when querying for mechs, set the limit to 2000. this is arbitrarily high
  -- (larger than the total number of mechs). without this, factions with lots
  -- of mechs would not show all of them.
  local equipmentMechData = mw.ext.cargo.query(
    'Mech,Chassis','Chassis.Name=Name,Chassis.VariantName=VariantName',
