USAGE

The function will parse wikitext (parameter 1) and find all occurences of the specified template (parameter 2). Mediawiki text is case insensitive.

The result is an array with an entry for each occurence. If the template has parameters, it will list them.

import parseMediawikiTemplate from 'parse-mediawiki-template';

const wikitext = 'Page content {{Template|param1|foo=paramFoo}} {{OtherTemplate}} {{Template|second|occurence}}';
const template = 'template';

const result = parseMediawikiTemplate(wikitext, template);

result is:

[
  {
    "1": "param1",
    "foo": "paramFoo"
  },
  {
    "1": "second",
    "2": "occurence"
  }
]
