Module:Utility

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

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
-- This module provides utility functions for several other modules, so that
-- there are not require/dependency loops.
-- 
-- The template requires at least one of its two arguments. The first is called
-- "product". and the second is called "building". Both are passed to the
-- RecipeData module, which returns one or more recipes.
--
-- Using the recipe data returned, this module creates an HTML table that 
-- displays the recipes, which replaces the template, whereever it is written
-- in the wiki markup. The table will have exactly one row if both the product 
-- and building are specified. If either is missing, then expect a table with
-- multiple rows.

-- Normalizes a building name for use as the key in other lookup tables.
--
-- This function at least makes the argument lowercase, since keys are 
-- lowercase to reduce the number of similarities to normalize.
-- @param buildingName the in-game name
-- @return a normalized name for use as a key
function Utility.normalizeBuildingName(buildingName)

	buildingName = string.lower(buildingName)
	
	-- No other functions should have this lookup table, so it's defined 
	-- locally to this function. The keys are the possible ways the name could
	-- be written. The values are the normalized string that are used as keys.
