This module lets you get around the <code>|no html</code> bug that Cargo has by avoiding |format=template. This module implicitly assumed you ARE using named args in your template (corresponding to <code>|named_args=yes</code>; you do not need to specify this.)


Unlike <code>|format=template</code>, this wrapper will NOT rename parameters with underscores in them to use spaces instead.
To use, preface query arguments with <code>q?</code>. Even if you are only using one table, use <code>|q?tables=</code>. You may additionally specify <code>|template=</code> ('''required'''), <code>|intro=</code>, <code>|outro=</code>, <code>|delimiter=</code>, and <code>|default=</code>.
== Parameters ==
 
* You may specify all parameters the same as if they were parameters in <code>#cargo_query</code>.
Use Lua names of all query parameters, so <code>|q?join=</code>, <code>|q?groupBy</code>, etc.


== One-To-Many ==
For simplicity of code, the named args parameter is required to be Yes, and you do not need to specify it.
This template allows for one-to-many support, allowing you to specify a field to treat equivalently to a <code>List of ...</code> field. Syntax is as follows:
* <code>|one_to_many=</code>, a list of fields you want concatenated together.
* <code>|one_to_many_group=</code>, the thing you want our one-to-many values grouped by. UNLIKE the <code>|group by=</code> parameter, this should be the FINAL name of a field, so something on the RIGHT SIDE of the equals sign in your <code>|fields=</code> parameter.
* <code>|one_to_many_sep=</code>, defaults to comma. Currently you must pick the same separator for ''all'' of your one-to-many fields.


=== Example ===
Unlike <code>|format=template</code>, this wrapper will NOT rename parameters with underscores in them to use spaces instead.
<pre>
==Parameters & Invocation==
{{#invoke:CargoQuery|main
<pre>{{#invoke:CargoQuery|main
|table=Teams,ListplayerCurrent=LPC
|q?tables= corresponds to table / tables
|join on=Teams._pageName=LPC._pageName
|q?join= corresponds to join on
|where=Teams.Region="North America" AND LPC._pageName IS NOT NULL
|q?fields= corresponds to fields
|fields=Teams._pageName=Page
|q?where= corresponds to where
|one_to_many=LPC.ID=IDs
|q?groupBy= corresponds to group by
|one_to_many_group=Page
|q?having= corresponds to having
|one_to_many_sep=,
|q?orderBy= corresponds to order by
|template=<template>
|q?limit= corresponds to limit
|intro={{(!}} class="wikitable"
|template=
|outro={{!)}}
|intro=
|limit=10
|outro=
}}
|delimiter=
</pre>
|default=
Here, the <code>one_to_many</code> is a list of players on the team in question. For each ONE team, there are MANY players, so the field <code>IDs</code> that's sent to the template is a comma-separated list of players, grouped by team page.
}}</pre>


== Compound Queries ==
===vardefine trick===
You can also run compound queries using <code>compound</code>. It has the same syntax as <code>#cargo_compound_query</code> but with a few exceptions:
There exists a [[Template:vardefine]] such that if it is passed in as the <code>template</code> parameter, the effect will be that every field's value is assigned to a variable named as the field name. '''Note:''' If multiple results are returned for a given query, due to the inherent behavior of #vardefine, the last result's values will override those of all the results that came before it.
* <code>default</code> for each individual query is disabled; default must be specified outside as an additional argument, which is then applied if no queries return results.
When using this template, the default template output is empty, however output-affecting parameters such as <code>|intro=</code>, <code>|outro=</code>, and <code>|delimiter=</code> will still be included in the return value. As usual, if no results are found, <code>|default=</code> will also still be used as the output, and no variables will be assigned.
* Each query must be numbered as in <code>|1=(query1)|2=(query2)|3=...</code>, etc.
* Because of how compound query uses <code>;</code> as a separator, strings with this character cannot be used. This can be worked around by specifying <code>metaseparator</code> to be another symbol, and splitting each query's arguments using that delimiter instead.


=== Example ===
== Dependencies ==
<pre>
* [[Module:ProcessArgs]]
{{#invoke:CargoQuery|compound
|1=table=Food=F
;fields=F._pageName=Page
;where=F.CookEffect HOLDS 'heat and fire-based' AND F._pageNamespace = '0'
|2=table=Liquids=L
;fields=L._pageName=Page
;where=L.CookEffect HOLDS 'simple heat and fire-based' AND L._pageNamespace = '0'
|default=No Results!
|template=favilink page
|delimiter = <br>
|metaseparator = ;
