Template:Taginfo2
Taginfo2 is a newer alternative to embed Taginfo boxes in wiki pages. It offers several options to customize the output. Technically there is a fundamental difference in that it is programmed by using AJAX instead of using a MediaWiki extension.
Usage
This is just a shortcut for embeding Taginfo info boxes in other pages.
Syntax: {{taginfo2|key|value}}
Replace key with the name of the key tag and value with the desired value of the tag, or omit it to display the key's information.
Options
There are also several options by setting parameters.
Syntax: {{taginfo2|key|value|option 1|option 2|...}}
| rtype= | – Is used to display information about relations of one type. Put in the desired type, e.g. route. |
| url= | – To customize the taginfo url, e.g. instances of specific regions or countries (default = https://taginfo.openstreetmap.org). |
| Parameters for customizing the extent of displayed content (default = yes): | |
| tagLink=yes/no | – If set no, header of the box showing the tag's name is not displayed. |
| countAll=yes/no | – If set no, the total amount is not displayed. |
| countNodes=yes/no | – If set no, the amount of existence on nodes is not displayed. |
| countWays=yes/no | – If set no, the amount of existence on ways is not displayed. |
| countRelations=yes/no | – If set no, the amount of existence on relations is not displayed. |
| percentage=yes/no | – If set no, the percentages behind the amounts are not displayed. |
| footer=yes/no | – If set no, footer of the box linking to taginfo is not displayed. |
| width= | – To manipulate the width of the box (default = 11em). |

How it works
This template is built from five files:
- Template:taginfo2
- Template:taginfoAJAX
- Template:taginfoAJAX_relation
- MediaWiki:Gadget-taginfo.css
- MediaWiki:Gadget-taginfo.js
These files work as follows:
Step 1: Decide which type of box to show The purpose of the {{taginfo2}} template is simply to decide which of the two taginfo boxes to show. If it is a tag box (for a key or value), it calls {{taginfoAJAX}}. If it is a relation box, {{taginfoAJAX_relation}} is called.
Step 2: Build the html Next, the template builds up an HTML structure for the box. The template uses CSS classes to designate where the taginfo information should be loaded. The class scheme is as follows:
| CSS class | Purpose |
|---|---|
| taginfo__key_value | The overall container. Indicates that html within this box should be populated with taginfo data for the tag key=value.
|
| all-count | Populated with the total number of nodes, ways, and relations. |
| node-count | Populated with the number of nodes. |
| way-count | Populated with the number of ways. |
| rel-count | Populated with the number of relations. |
| all-pct | Populated with the percentage of objects in this key that have this value |
| node-pct | Populated with the percentage of nodes in this key that have this value |
| way-pct | Populated with the percentage of ways in this key that have this value |
| rel-pct | Populated with the percentage of relations in this key that have this value |
| CSS class | Purpose |
|---|---|
| taginfo_relation__type | The overall container. Indicates that html within this box should be populated with taginfo data for the relation type=value.
|
| rel-count | Populated with the number of usages of this relation. |
| member-count | Populated with the aggregate number of members relations of this type. |
Step 3: CSS styling In addition to providing styling, the associated CSS file ensures that the box is hidden until it is loaded.
Step 4: Javascript
The javascript file runs one time on the page, scanning for taginfo boxes by CSS class selectors. For example, if the javascript routine discovers a <div> with the name taginfo__building_yes, that indicates that building=yes taginfo data should be loaded. The javascript makes an AJAX call to taginfo to retrieve the taginfo data, and then populates HTML matching the class selectors above with the retrieved taginfo data.
noscript support
If javascript support is not available, a simple link to taginfo's page for the relevant element will be shown.
