Factorio Wiki Mod

Factorio Wiki Mod provides a re-usable Wiki Interface. This mod's concept has an obvious source of inspiration but is designed to be simply added as a mod requirement which then allows calls to a function or remote interface in the Data and Control stage to populate the Wiki.

Changes

Reworked the base code and now you can add custom elements
In your topic you can now add something like

    {type = "custom", interface = "modmash", func = "test"}

and register in on_init and on_load a remote interface
example

     remote.add_interface("modmash",{test = test})

what this will do is call the function test passing it a horizontal flow element to work with when generating the wiki description

Example wiki.lua

modmash_wiki = 
{
    name = "modmash",  --mod name
    title    = "ModMash",   --title shown in mod filter
    {
        name = {"gui.modmash-wiki-topic-main"},  --This is a topic defined in local.cfg under [gui]
        topic = {  -- the topic details
            {type = "title", title = {"gui.modmash-wiki-topic-main-title"} },  --a localized title
            {type = "line"},  --a simple line
            {               
                type = "image",   --an image
                name = "mm-topic-main-img-1",
                filepath = "__modmash__/graphics/wiki/thumbnail.png",
                width = 144,
                height = 144,
                scale = 1
            },
            {type = "text", text = "Some Text Here"} -- some non localized text
        }
    }
}

Example control.lua

local initialize_wiki = function()
    remote.call("wiki","register_mod_wiki",modmash_wiki)
    end

script.on_init(function() initialize_wiki() end)
script.on_load(function() initialize_wiki() end)

Example data.lua

require("wiki") 
wiki_register_mod_wiki(modmash_wiki)
