=== Trimming whitespace ===

MediaWiki trims whitespace for named arguments coming from #invoke or a template call, but preserves whitespace for positional arguments. By default, this module helps trim whitespace also for position arguments. To preserve whitespace for positional arguments, set the <code>trim</code> option to <code>false</code>.

<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
local args = getArgs(frame, {
	trim = false
})
</syntaxhighlight>

When the <code>valueFunc</code> option is given, the <code>valueFunc</code> function will be responsible for trimming whitespace, and the <code>trim</code> option will have no effect.
