3 | | Processors are WikiMacros designed to provide alternative markup formats for the [TracWiki Wiki engine]. Processors can be thought of as ''macro functions to process user-edited text''. |
4 | | |
5 | | Wiki processors can be used in any Wiki text throughout Trac, |
6 | | for various different purposes, like: |
7 | | - [#CodeHighlightingSupport syntax highlighting] or for rendering text verbatim, |
8 | | - rendering [#HTMLrelated Wiki markup inside a context], |
9 | | like inside <div> blocks or <span> or within <td> or <th> table cells, |
10 | | - using an alternative markup syntax, like [wiki:WikiHtml raw HTML] and |
11 | | [wiki:WikiRestructuredText Restructured Text], |
12 | | or [http://www.textism.com/tools/textile/ textile] |

| 10 | == Using Processors |
| 11 | |
| 12 | To use a processor on a block of text, first delimit the lines using a Wiki ''code block'': |
39 | | Besides their content, some Wiki processors can also accept ''parameters'', |
40 | | which are then given as `key=value` pairs after the processor name, |
41 | | on the same line. If `value` has to contain space, as it's often the case for |
42 | | the style parameter, a quoted string can be used (`key="value with space"`). |
43 | | |
44 | | As some processors are meant to process Wiki markup, it's quite possible to |
45 | | ''nest'' processor blocks. |
46 | | You may want to indent the content of nested blocks for increased clarity, |
47 | | this extra indentation will be ignored when processing the content. |

| 36 | |
| 37 | == Examples |
155 | | `#!default` :: Present the text verbatim in a preformatted text block. |
156 | | This is the same as specifying ''no'' processor name |
157 | | (and no `#!`) |
158 | | `#!comment` :: Do not process the text in this section (i.e. contents exist |
159 | | only in the plain text - not in the rendered page). |
160 | | |
161 | | === HTML related === |
162 | | |
163 | | `#!html` :: Insert custom HTML in a wiki page. |
164 | | `#!htmlcomment` :: Insert an HTML comment in a wiki page (''since 0.12''). |
165 | | |
166 | | Note that `#!html` blocks have to be ''self-contained'', |
167 | | i.e. you can't start an HTML element in one block and close it later in a second block. Use the following processors for achieving a similar effect. |
168 | | |
169 | | `#!div` :: Wrap an arbitrary Wiki content inside a <div> element |
170 | | (''since 0.11''). |
171 | | `#!span` :: Wrap an arbitrary Wiki content inside a <span> element |
172 | | (''since 0.11''). |
173 | | |
174 | | `#!td` :: Wrap an arbitrary Wiki content inside a <td> element (''since 0.12'') |
175 | | `#!th` :: Wrap an arbitrary Wiki content inside a <th> element (''since 0.12'') |
176 | | `#!tr` :: Can optionally be used for wrapping `#!td` and `#!th` blocks, |
177 | | either for specifying row attributes of better visual grouping |
178 | | (''since 0.12'') |
179 | | |
180 | | See WikiHtml for example usage and more details about these processors. |
181 | | |
182 | | === Other Markups === |
183 | | |
184 | | `#!rst` :: Trac support for Restructured Text. See WikiRestructuredText. |
185 | | `#!textile` :: Supported if [http://cheeseshop.python.org/pypi/textile Textile] |
186 | | is installed. |
187 | | See [http://www.textism.com/tools/textile/ a Textile reference]. |
188 | | |
189 | | |
190 | | === Code Highlighting Support === |
191 | | |
192 | | Trac includes processors to provide inline syntax highlighting: |
193 | | `#!c` (C), `#!cpp` (C++), `#!python` (Python), `#!perl` (Perl), |
194 | | `#!ruby` (Ruby), `#!php` (PHP), `#!asp` (ASP), `#!java` (Java), |
195 | | `#!js` (Javascript), `#!sql (SQL)`, `#!xml` (XML or HTML), |
196 | | `#!sh` (!Bourne/Bash shell), etc. |
197 | | |
198 | | Trac relies on external software packages for syntax coloring, |
199 | | like [http://pygments.org Pygments]. |
200 | | |
201 | | See TracSyntaxColoring for information about which languages |
202 | | are supported and how to enable support for more languages. |
203 | | |
204 | | Note also that by using the MIME type as processor, it is possible to syntax-highlight the same languages that are supported when browsing source code. For example, you can write: |

| 168 | Since 1.1.2 the default, coding highlighting and MIME-type processors support the argument `lineno` for adding line numbering to the code block. When a value is specified, as in `lineno=3`, the numbering will start at the specified value. When used in combination with the `lineno` argument, the `marks` argument is also supported for highlighting lines. A single line number, set of line numbers and range of line numbers are allowed. For example, `marks=3`, `marks=3-6`, `marks=3,5,7` and `marks=3-5,7` are all allowed. The specified values are relative to the numbered lines, so if `lineno=2` is specified to start the line numbering at 2, `marks=2` will result in the first line being highlighted. |
