== Usage ==

This template supports most of the parameters available to {{Tlx|Citation}}. For information about those parameters see that template's documentation.

'''''Note''''': All parameter names {{strong|must}} be in [[lowercase]].

=== Cite IETF specific parameters ===
* {{Para|appendix}} – Appendix number of the document. {{Para|appendix|A.1}} produces "sec. A.1" Also used to create an anchor link for the document's URL.
* {{Para|autolink}} – {{Para|autolink|<var>yes</var>}} or {{Para|autolink|<var>no</var>}} Automatically generate a link to ietf.org for documents specified with {{Para|rfc}}, {{Para|std}}, {{Para|bcp}}, {{Para|fyi}}, {{Para|draft}}, {{Para|ien}}, or {{Para|rtr}}. (enabled by default)
* {{Para|bcp}} – Number of the [[Best Current Practice]] (BCP) document. Also used to automatically generate a link to ietf.org.
* {{Para|draft}} – Name of the [[Internet Draft]] (I-D) document, including the leading draft-. Also used to automatically generate a link to ietf.org.
* {{Para|fyi}} – Number of the [[For Your Information]] (FYI) document. Also used to automatically generate a link to ietf.org.
* {{Para|idanchor}} – Anchor link target. By default, no anchor link is generated. The special value {{Para|idanchor|ietf}} generates an anchor link suitable for use with this template's {{Para|ref}} parameter. Requires one of {{Para|id}}, {{Para|rfc}}, {{Para|std}}, {{Para|bcp}}, {{Para|fyi}}, {{Para|draft}}, {{Para|ien}} or {{Para|rtr}} fields to be present for the anchor link text.
* {{Para|idlink}} – Internal document anchor or title of a Wikipedia article to link via the document identifier. Article should already exist. Must not be wikilinked itself. Do not use this on its own, but along with {{Para|id}}, {{Para|rfc}}, {{Para|std}}, {{Para|bcp}}, {{Para|fyi}}, {{Para|draft}}, {{Para|ien}} or {{Para|rtr}}.
* {{Para|idlinktype}} – One of the values: {{Para|id}}, {{Para|rfc}}, {{Para|std}}, {{Para|bcp}}, {{Para|fyi}}, {{Para|draft}}, {{Para|ien}} or {{Para|rtr}} can be given to {{Para|idlinktype}} to force the template to use the specified document identifier as the link text for {{Para|idanchor}} or {{Para|idlink}}. Do not use this on its own, but along with {{Para|idanchor}} or {{Para|idlink}} and {{Para|id}}, {{Para|rfc}}, {{Para|std}}, {{Para|bcp}}, {{Para|fyi}}, {{Para|draft}}, {{Para|ien}} or {{Para|rtr}}.
* {{Para|ien}} – Number of the [[Internet Experiment Note]] (IEN) document. Also used to automatically generate a link to ietf.org.
* {{Para|nosec}} – Using {{Para|section}}, {{Para|sections}}, or {{Para|appendix}} automatically places the sec. notation. Se {{Para|nosec|y}} to hide the sec. notation.
* {{Para|referenceid}} – Reference id for the document. Used to create an anchor link for the document's URL.
* {{Para|rfc}} – Number of the [[Request for Comments]] (RFC) document. Also used to automatically generate a link to ietf.org.
* {{Para|rtr}} – Number of the [[Réseaux Associés pour la Recherche Européenne|RARE]] Technical Reports (RTR) document. Also used to automatically generate a link to ietf.org.
* {{Para|section}} – Section number of the document. {{para|section|4.3.1}} produces "sec. 4.3.1" Also used to create an anchor link for the document's URL. Can also be used in combination with {{Para|sections}} to link to the first section in the given section range.
* {{Para|sections}} – Section range of the document. {{Para|sections|4.3-4.7}} produces "sec. 4.3–4.7"
* {{Para|sectionname}} – The section name or section title of the document, written in full; displays before {{Para|title}} and enclosed in quotes.
* {{Para|std}} – Number of the [[Internet Standard]] (STD) document. Also used to automatically generate a link to ietf.org.
* {{Para|style}} – Override the style of link used for RFC and Internet Draft. Effective values are "html" (default for RFC), "text" (default for Internet Draft).

As with all cs1|2 templates, {{Para|title}} is required. If omitted, the template will attempt to auto-generate a title using the first of {{Para|rfc}}, {{Para|std}}, {{Para|bcp}}, {{Para|fyi}}, {{Para|draft}}, {{Para|ien}}, {{Para|rtr}} or {{Para|id}} document identifier parameters, in that order.

Copy a blank version to use. Remember to use the "|" (pipe) character between each parameter. Please delete any unused parameters to avoid clutter in the edit window.

== Technical notes ==

=== Regression testing ===

[[Regression testing|Regression tests]] are available here:

* {{Tl|Cite IETF/regression tests}}

=== Subtemplates ===

{{Tl|Cite IETF}} uses the following subtemplates:

* {{Tl|Cite IETF/doctypes}}
* {{Tl|Cite IETF/makelink}}
* {{Tl|Cite IETF/refanchor}}

===URL generation===

[[Request for Comments]] (RFC), [[For Your Information]] (FYI), and [[Internet Draft]] (I-D) documents are stored by <code><nowiki>https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/</nowiki></code> and are linked in the following way:

: <code><nowiki>https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/rfc</nowiki><var><document number></var></code> (only if {{para|Style]}} is not "html" or "empty")
: <code><nowiki>https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/fyi</nowiki><var><document number></var></code>
: <code><nowiki>https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/draft-</nowiki><var><draft name></var></code> (only if {{para|Style}} is "text" or empty)

[[Request for Comments]] (RFC), [[Internet Standard]] (STD), [[Best Current Practice]] (BCP), [[Internet Experiment Note]] (IEN), and [[Réseaux Associés pour la Recherche Européenne|RARE]] Technical Reports (RTR) documents are stored by <code><nowiki>https://rfc-editor.org</nowiki></code> and are linked in the following way:

: <code><nowiki>https://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc</nowiki><var><document number></var></code> (only if {{para|Style}} is "html" or "empty")
: <code><nowiki>https://www.rfc-editor.org/info/std</nowiki><var><document number></var></code>
: <code><nowiki>https://www.rfc-editor.org/info/bcp</nowiki><var><document number></var></code>
: <code><nowiki>https://rfc-editor.org/in-notes/ien/ien</nowiki><var><document number>.txt</var></code>
: <code><nowiki>https://rfc-editor.org/in-notes/museum/RAREreports/rtr</nowiki><var><document number>.txt</var></code>

The HTML rendering of [[Internet Draft]] (I-D) pages can be requested via {{para|Style|html}} (technically any value that is not empty or "text"). This produces the following URL:

: <code><nowiki>https://www.ietf.org/archive/id/</nowiki><var><draft name>.html</var></code>

This URL provides a pretty HTML rendering for newer I-D documents, but returns 404 Not Found for the older files.

=== URL anchor generation ===

Anchors are generated for the URL using four parameters:

: {{Para|section|<var>number</var>}} generates <code>#section-<var><number></var></code>
: {{Para|appendix|<var>number</var>}} generates <code>#appendix-<var><number></var></code>
: {{Para|referenceid|<var>id</var>}} generates <code>#ref-<var><id></var></code>
: {{Para|page|<var>number</var>}} generates <code>#page-<var><number></var></code>

The template will give priority to the first of the parameters: {{Para|section}}, {{Para|appendix}}, {{Para|referenceid}}, or {{Para|page}} in this order and create an anchor using the first matching parameter.
