== Allow parameter aliases ==

Hi {{U|Mr. Stradivarius}}!

Could you change this to allow the configs <code>cfg.main</code>, <code>cfg.talk</code>, <code>cfg.other</code>, <code>cfg.subjectns</code>, <code>cfg.demospace</code> and <code>cfg.page</code> to get either an array of strings (and also just a string, for backwards compatibility) which would be aliases for the parameter name? This would help porting this module to other wikis, since it is common to have both the English parameter name and the translated parameter name being accepted (as in <code><nowiki>{{{Localized parameter|{{{English parameter|}}}}}}</nowiki></code>), or even two different translations for the same parameter.

== Possible performance issues with Module:Namespace_detect ==

:<small>Moved here from my user talk page. — '''''[[User:Mr. Stradivarius|<span style="color: #194D00; font-family: Palatino, Times, serif">Mr. Stradivarius</span>]]''''' <sup>[[User talk:Mr. Stradivarius|♪ talk ♪]]</sup> 09:37, 20 March 2014 (UTC)</small>

Hi. Sorry for the bother. I just wanted to bring this matter to your attention.

[[Module:Namespace_detect]] appears to be at the root of some performance issues. For example, I believe it is because of [[Module:Namespace_detect]] that it takes about 30 seconds to preview an edit on [[List_of_Unicode_characters]]

[[List_of_Unicode_characters]] is a large page. However, I believe most of the time is spent by several of the Unicode charts calling [[Module:Namespace_detect]] indirectly through [[Template:Lang]].

For example:

* [[Template:Unicode_chart_Kannada]] has 86 [[Template:Lang]] calls. EX: <nowiki>{{lang|kn|&#x0c82;}}</nowiki>
* Each [[Template:Lang]] calls [[Template:Category handler]]
* [[Template:Category_handler]] is just a wrapper around [[Module:Category_handler]]
* [[Module:Category_handler]] has a _main function that calls nsDetect.getParamMappings()
* getParamMappings in [[Module:Namespace_detect]] has this block of code

<syntaxhighlight lang=lua>
	for nsid, ns in pairs(mw.site.subjectNamespaces) do
		if nsid ~= 0 then -- Exclude main namespace.
			local nsname = mw.ustring.lower(ns.name)
			local canonicalName = mw.ustring.lower(ns.canonicalName)
			mappings[nsname] = {nsname}
			if canonicalName ~= nsname then
				table.insert(mappings[nsname], canonicalName)
			end
			for _, alias in ipairs(ns.aliases) do
				table.insert(mappings[nsname], mw.ustring.lower(alias))
			end
		end
	end
</syntaxhighlight>

* Note that this code loops 15 times (as there are 15 subject namespaces) 
* Each loop will call mw.ustring.lower 2 times (for simplicity's sake, we can ignore the mw.ustring.lower(alias))
* So, for [[Template:Unicode_chart_Kannada]], there will be 2,580 calls to mw.ustring.lower (86 * 15 * 2)
* There are several more Unicode charts on the page that call lang: for example [[Template:Unicode chart Myanmar]]
* All told, there are approximately 100,000 calls to mw.ustring.lower from one edit to this page
* Although mw.ustring.lower and Language:lc are relatively simple procs, there are overhead costs with going back and forth between Lua / PHP. Even at 3,300 calls per second, it will take the aforementioned 30 seconds to preview an edit

I also have reason to believe that variations of this situation are repeated elsewhere on other pages. For context, I am the developer of [http://xowa.sourceforge.net XOWA] (an offline wiki app), and I do monthly parses of English Wikipedia's 4.4 million mainspace articles. Module:Namespace_detect is flagged as one of the most time-consuming #invokes. I never understood why, until tonight.

As a recommendation, you could move getParamMappings to a new [[Module:Namespace_detect/Data]] page and use "return mw.loadData('Module:Namespace_detect/Data')". This change would be straightforward and improve performance, though you would have to change the Module to preserve the portable cfg table.

Let me know if you need more info.

Thanks.

:This should be at some template/module talk page, with just a link here. Perhaps Mr.S would like to move all this? I have not looked at the issue, but the requirement to detect the namespace multiple times should be removed (obviously!). After ten seconds research, I'm guessing that {{tl|Lang}} detects the namespace each time it is invoked in order to decide whether to add a category. That's way over-the-top on a page like [[List of Unicode characters]] that is apparently using {{tl|Lang}} many times. A clever template coder should add a parameter which can be used to omit all that overhead. [[User:Johnuniq|Johnuniq]] ([[User talk:Johnuniq|talk]]) 09:27, 20 March 2014 (UTC)
:{{ec}} Hi Gnosygnu, and thank you for the detailed analysis! I wrote [[Module:Namespace detect]] back when I wasn't that experienced with Lua, and I was actually thinking that I should go back and have a look at it now that I have a few more modules under my belt. While it (maybe, hopefully) should be faster than the old wikitext version, we can obviously make things a lot better. I'll have a look at it, implement your suggestions, and see if there are any other changes that might need making.

: Thanks for making the proposed changes. I made two changes now:
:* I re-added p.getParamMappings since it is public and other Modules call it. For example, [[Module:Category_handler]] has this: <code>local mappings = nsDetect.getParamMappings()</code>
:* <s>I wasn't sure if the <code>function p.table(frame)</code> was supposed to change. I reverted it back to the current version. Feel free to revert back your version if the change was deliberate.</s> It looks like this was deliberate. My apologies.
:Otherwise, it tested fine in a limited test on my machine.
:FWIW: my initial estimate of 100,000 calls looks like it is closer to 85,000 calls. This means there were roughly 2,833 calls to Module:Namespace_detect. (85,000 / (15 * 2))
:The page still does roughly 27,000 calls b/c of the matchesBlacklist function. This correlates with the above figure: 27,000 calls / 9 blacklisted terms => 3,000 calls to Module:Category_handler. I don't know if this can be fixed easily, as matchesBlacklist can't be made a static variable and no_cat = false is the default

::: Clearly the sandbox is picking up the new changes (lc falls from 18% to 1%). I'm pretty sure I'm using the correct prefix: User:Gnosygnu/sandbox. If I use an incorrect prefix, such as User:Gnosygnu/sandbox_invalid, I get the same Lua Profile as the current page.
::: <s>I'll play with this some more later, but I just wanted to let you know.</s> After further investigation, I'm beginning to think that the multiple lc Scribunto calls have a more dramatic effect in LuaStandalone than LuaSandbox -- presumably because LuaStandalone serializes all messages back and forth. As such, Special:TemplateSandbox may very well be correct. The new change will reduce the number of lc calls, but won't have any real meaningful effect (maybe 1 second faster). Any performance issues with the current page might be due to regular Template expansion. [[User_talk:Gnosygnu|gnosygnu]] 16:47, 22 March 2014 (UTC)

{{ping|Gnosygnu|Jackmcbarn}} I've finished making my changes to [[Module:Namespace detect/sandbox]]:
* I've moved the configuration to a separate page, [[Module:Namespace detect/config]]. This is to try make the distinction between code and configuration clearer.
* I have also implemented Helder's suggestion - now the parameter config values can be specified either as an array of strings or just a string.
* All config values have now been made optional.
* The p.main function now uses [[Module:Arguments]], which means that arguments are now only fetched when they are needed. (Before they were all expanded before being passed to p._main.)
* I've also simplified the p._main code to avoid an unnecessary for loop. As part of this, I have replaced the tail call from p.main to p._main with a retval. This is to make more explicit the fact that on finding no matches at all, the module should return nil for other Lua modules and the blank string for #invoke. If there are any objections to this, we can always revert it back to an implicit return value.
* Finally, I have revamped the p.table code so that the namespaces are now displayed in order, and so that {{para|talk|yes}} actually works.
Let me know what you think of the changes, and if everything looks good we can update the main module. — '''''[[User:Mr. Stradivarius|<span style="color: #194D00; font-family: Palatino, Times, serif">Mr. Stradivarius</span>]]''''' <sup>[[User talk:Mr. Stradivarius|♪ talk ♪]]</sup> 13:31, 22 March 2014 (UTC)
:{{ping|Mr. Stradivarius}} Thanks for the changes. I think they're fine. I've done a modified test on my machine, as well as the TemplateSandbox (See my comment above). "lc" is no longer a significant portion of execution time.  I'm still seeing the same number of calls to "match", but I think the calling templates need to be changed. FWIW, my own tests (using XOWA) show no measurable performance difference with the latest changes. This may be because I'm using LuaStandalone vs LuaSandbox. (LuaSandbox is not possible in a Windows / Java environment). There may be other apples to oranges issues as well, though I still believe that "lc" is a significant performance cost [[User_talk:Gnosygnu|gnosygnu]] 15:44, 22 March 2014 (UTC)
::Yes, I expected that my latest changes wouldn't increase performance for most pages. For pages using {{tl|namespace detect}} directly, the switch to [[Module:Arguments]] may provide a significant boost, depending on what wikitext would have otherwise been expanded. But most transclusions of [[Module:Namespace detect]] come through [[Module:Category handler]], and those uses aren't affected by that change. Your original suggestion is definitely the big performance-saver. For further performance savings we might want to consider removing the page and demospace parameters, as that would enable caching of the namespace data with mw.loadData. If we did the same thing with [[Module:Category handler]], we would also be able to cache the blacklist checks. The downside to that would be that the module test cases would no longer work, but I think that the performance benefits might outweigh that disadvantage. Another performance saving could be made by changing [[Module:Category handler]] to only expand arguments when necessary. That could be done by using [[Module:Arguments]], and by using metatables to pass arguments to [[Module:Namespace detect]] by proxy. — '''''[[User:Mr. Stradivarius|<span style="color: #194D00; font-family: Palatino, Times, serif">Mr. Stradivarius</span>]]''''' <sup>[[User talk:Mr. Stradivarius|♪ talk ♪]]</sup> 16:33, 22 March 2014 (UTC)
:::Okay. Thanks for the explanation. I'm beginning to think that even the "lc" calls won't make a noticeable difference because of LuaSandbox / LuaStandalone differences. (see my comment above).

:::::If this was a less performance-critical module I would probably agree with you, and I admit that I'm guilty of overusing this technique. However, if we're talking about tens of thousands of calls to a loop every time a page is parsed, I think it would make enough of a difference to be worth doing. I'm basing this on [http://www.lua.org/gems/sample.pdf Lua Performance Tips by Roberto Ierusalimschy], which says that using local variables is 30% faster than using table lookups. Of course, 30% faster than hardly anything is still hardly anything, so it might make sense to change some of those local variables back to table lookups to make the code easier to read. In particular I would guess that using them in the /data page is not important, since that is cached with mw.loadData now. But it would make sense to use local variables for the functions that are getting called multiple times per #invoke. — '''''[[User:Mr. Stradivarius|<span style="color: #194D00; font-family: Palatino, Times, serif">Mr. Stradivarius</span>]]''''' <sup>[[User talk:Mr. Stradivarius|♪ talk ♪]]</sup> 11:06, 23 March 2014 (UTC)
::::{{ping|Gnosygnu}} The real performance problems are definitely not module-related. When I previewed [[List of Unicode characters]] just now with the old version of [[Module:Namespace detect]], it took 40 seconds to parse, but the Lua time usage was only reported at about 4.3 seconds. So the other 36 seconds must be from something other than Lua. Templates are a very likely candidate - the current post-expand include size is 1944444/2048000 bytes, and I count 207 different templates and modules used - but I have also seen performance issues like this on pages containing lots of images.

:The module needs to check the /config page to see if there are any configuration differences that it needs to process. This allows us to use the same basic code on enwiki as on other wikis using different languages. If those differences weren't in the /config file, they would have to be put in the main module code, which would mean we would have to produce different modules for all the different languages we wanted to localise to. It's a labour-saving device - if we didn't do the localisation work here, it would fall to editors on the different wikis to directly alter the module code. I would guess that this way of doing things is much easier for editors working in localisation to understand.

However, I agree with Mr. Stradivarius—the overhead is probably very small, and there is no evidence that omitting the config would achieve anything. Even if requiring a module took a significant time (it doesn't), the caching of the 9.9 million pages means that the require overhead would still be small.

Some pages may have produced script errors in the few seconds between me updating the /config module and me updating the /data module. Given the number of transclusions this module has, it's quite likely that some might have stuck around since then. If there are any errors that still appear after purging the page, let me know. — '''''[[User:Mr. Stradivarius|<span style="color: #194D00; font-family: Palatino, Times, serif">Mr. Stradivarius</span>]]''''' <sup>[[User talk:Mr. Stradivarius|♪ talk ♪]]</sup> 04:23, 14 April 2014 (UTC)

== Issue when moving to a local Wiki ==
Not asking for a change, as it could potentially break stuff here on Wikipedia (no idea). Just for information.

Took a while to figure out why it didn't work on my local Wiki. But think I solved it after changing the following lines in [[Module:Namespace_detect/data]]. Starting at line 64
<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
	for nsid, ns in pairs(mw.site.subjectNamespaces) do
		if nsid ~= 0 then -- Exclude main namespace.
			local nsname = ns.name
			local lcNsname = mw.ustring.lower(ns.name)
			local canonicalName = mw.ustring.lower(ns.canonicalName)

			-- For custom namespaces (custom Wiki) the casing is important
			-- and needs to be preserved
			if canonicalName == lcNsname then
				nsname = lcNsname
			end
			mappings[nsname] = {nsname}

			if canonicalName ~= nsname then
				table.insert(mappings[nsname], canonicalName)
			end
			for _, alias in ipairs(ns.aliases) do
				table.insert(mappings[nsname], mw.ustring.lower(alias))
			end
		end
	end
</syntaxhighlight>
