Template:GEPrice/doc
 | This is a documentation subpage for Template:GEPrice. It contains usage information, categories, and other content that is not part of the original template page. |
This template displays the prices of items with comma formatting, generally for simple templates using tables. For more complicated templates that use a price as part of a calculation, see {{GEP}}.
Warning: This template cannot be used when programming calculators, as the values contain commas by default. Instead, one must use {{GEP}}. See also {{,}}, which performs an identical function to {{GEP}}, though the latter remains the preferred option.
Usage
{{GEPrice|Blue partyhat}} -> 55,000,000
To lookup multiples of the output price:
{{GEPrice|Blue partyhat|2}} -> 110,000,000
Sometimes, the multiple used can be a fraction or float number, e.g. 1.33, which often produces long decimals. To make this more friendly to readers, the round can be used:
{{GEPrice|Blue partyhat|1/3|round=3}} -> 18,333,333.333
Default
If you specify an item name that does not exist on the Grand Exchange, a script error is thrown. You can set the dflt to a value that will be returned instead of an error. (NB: if you are looking up prices for a historical GE item, this will return the default before checking if the item is historical.) You could set this to a string to detect the error, or to a number like 0 to allow calculations to continue, ignoring the non-GE item.
{{GEPrice|Rainbow partyhat|dflt=error}}
{{GEPrice|Rainbow partyhat|dflt=0}}
