About type
The type field will sort the page to the corresponding category. The category list can be found at .../wiki/Module:Infobox_XXX_Homebrews (replace XXX with GB/GBA/DS/3DS/PSP/Vita/WiiU/Switch/XBOX).
A list of valid type names for the GameBoy section are (inside the [' ']):
local categories = { -- Applications ['Math'] = {'GB homebrew applications', 'Maths applications on GB', 'GB homebrew applications'}, ['Music Apps'] = {'GB homebrew applications', 'Music applications on GB', 'GB homebrew applications'}, ['Music Disks'] = {'GB homebrew applications', 'Music disks on GB', 'GB homebrew applications'}, ['Other Apps'] = {'GB homebrew applications', 'Other applications on GB', 'GB homebrew applications'}, ['Test Roms'] = {'GB homebrew applications', 'Test roms on GB', 'GB homebrew applications'}, ['Utilities'] = {'GB homebrew applications', 'Utility applications on GB', 'GB homebrew applications'}, -- Games ['Action'] = {'GB homebrew games', 'Action games on GB', 'GB homebrew games'}, ['Adventure'] = {'GB homebrew games', 'Adventure games on GB', 'GB homebrew games'}, ['Arcade Games'] = {'GB homebrew games', 'Arcade games on GB', 'GB homebrew games'}, ['Board'] = {'GB homebrew games', 'Board games on GB', 'GB homebrew games'}, ['Card'] = {'GB homebrew games', 'Card games on GB', 'GB homebrew games'}, ['Music'] = {'GB homebrew games', 'Music games on GB', 'GB homebrew games'}, ['Other Games'] = {'GB homebrew games', 'Other games on GB', 'GB homebrew games'}, ['Platform'] = {'GB homebrew games', 'Platform games on GB', 'GB homebrew games'}, ['Puzzle'] = {'GB homebrew games', 'Puzzle games on GB', 'GB homebrew games'}, ['Racing'] = {'GB homebrew games', 'Racing games on GB', 'GB homebrew games'}, ['Role Playing'] = {'GB homebrew games', 'Role playing games on GB', 'GB homebrew games'}, ['Shooter'] = {'GB homebrew games', 'Shooter games on GB', 'GB homebrew games'}, ['Simulation'] = {'GB homebrew games', 'Simulation games on GB', 'GB homebrew games'}, ['Strategy'] = {'GB homebrew games', 'Strategy games on GB', 'GB homebrew games'}, ['Trivia'] = {'GB homebrew games', 'Trivia games on GB', 'GB homebrew games'}, -- Emulators ['Computer'] = {'GB homebrew emulators', 'Computer emulators on GB', 'GB homebrew emulators'}, ['Console'] = {'GB homebrew emulators', 'Console emulators on GB', 'GB homebrew emulators'}, ['Other Emulators'] = {'GB homebrew emulators', 'Other emulators on GB', 'GB homebrew emulators'}, -- PC (PC Utilities for GB) ['Development'] = {'GB PC utilities', 'Development utilities for GB', 'PC utilities for GB'}, ['PC Utilities'] = {'GB PC utilities', 'Other PC utilities for GB', 'PC utilities for GB'}, -- Demos ['Demos'] = {'GB homebrew demos', 'Demo applications on GB', 'GB homebrew demos'}, ['Game Demos'] = {'GB homebrew demos', 'Demo games on GB', 'GB homebrew demos'}, ['Samples'] = {'GB homebrew demos', 'Code samples for GB', 'GB homebrew demos'}, -- ROM Hack ['Game Hacks'] = {'all GB Rom Hacks', 'GB game hacks', 'GB rom hacks'}, ['Translations'] = {'all GB Rom Hacks', 'GB game translations', 'GB rom hacks'}, ['Hack Utilities'] = {'all GB Rom Hacks', 'GB hack utilities', 'GB rom hacks'}, }
Notes
The Homebrew Cartridge table was added quite late; to avoid complicating the database we used these Infobox fields for the data:
- discussion (url for the Purchase info column)
- portedby (Name of the url for the Purchase info column)
- contributor (used for Availability, this has been removed from the table)
