  • WikiProcessors

    v2 v3  
    33Processors 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''.
    44
    5 The Wiki engine uses processors to allow using [wiki:WikiRestructuredText Restructured Text], [wiki:WikiHtml raw HTML] and [http://www.textism.com/tools/textile/ textile] in any Wiki text throughout Trac.
     5Wiki processors can be used in any Wiki text throughout Trac,
     6for 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]

    815== Using Processors ==
    916
    10 To use a processor on a block of text, use a Wiki code block, selecting a processor by name using ''shebang notation'' (#!), familiar to most UNIX users from scripts.
    11 
    12 '''Example 1''' (''inserting raw HTML in a wiki text''):
    13 
     17To use a processor on a block of text, first delimit the lines using
     18a Wiki ''code block'':
     19{{{
     20{{{
     21The lines
     22that should be processed...
     23}}}
     24}}}
     25
     26Immediately after the `{{{` or on the line just below,
     27add `#!` followed by the ''processor name''.
     28
     29{{{
     30{{{
     31#!processorname
     32The lines
     33that should be processed...
     34}}}
     35}}}
     36
     37This is the "shebang" notation, familiar to most UNIX users.
     38
     39Besides their content, some Wiki processors can also accept ''parameters'',
     40which are then given as `key=value` pairs after the processor name,
     41on the same line. If `value` has to contain space, as it's often the case for
     42the style parameter, a quoted string can be used (`key="value with space"`).
     43
     44As some processors are meant to process Wiki markup, it's quite possible to
     45''nest'' processor blocks.
     46You may want to indent the content of nested blocks for increased clarity,
     47this extra indentation will be ignored when processing the content.

    23 {{{
    24 #!html
    25 <h1 style="color: orange">This is raw HTML</h1>
    26 }}}
    27 
    28 Note that since 0.11, such blocks of HTML have to be self-contained, i.e. you can't start an HTML element in one block and close it later in a second block. Use div or span processors for achieving similar effect (see WikiHtml).

    82151== Available Processors ==
     152
    83153The following processors are included in the Trac distribution:
    84  * '''html''' -- Insert custom HTML in a wiki page. See WikiHtml.
    85  * '''div''' -- Wrap an arbitrary Wiki content in a <div> element (''since 0.11''). See WikiHtml.
    86  * '''span''' -- Wrap an arbitrary Wiki content in a <span> element (''since 0.11''). See also WikiHtml.
    87  * '''htmlcomment''' -- Insert an HTML comment in a wiki page (''since 0.12''). See WikiHtml.
    88  * '''rst''' -- Trac support for Restructured Text. See WikiRestructuredText.
    89  * '''textile''' -- Supported if [http://cheeseshop.python.org/pypi/textile Textile] is installed. See [http://www.textism.com/tools/textile/ a Textile reference].
    90  * '''comment''' -- Do not process the text in this section (i.e. contents exist only in the plain text - not in the rendered page).
     154
     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
     166Note that `#!html` blocks have to be ''self-contained'',
     167i.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
     180See 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
    91189
    92190=== Code Highlighting Support ===
    93 Trac includes processors to provide inline [wiki:TracSyntaxColoring syntax highlighting] for the following languages:
    94  * '''c''' -- C
    95  * '''cpp''' -- C++
    96  * '''python''' -- Python
    97  * '''perl''' -- Perl
    98  * '''ruby''' -- Ruby
    99  * '''php''' -- PHP
    100  * '''asp''' -- ASP
    101  * '''java''' -- Java
    102  * '''js''' -- Javascript
    103  * '''sql''' -- SQL
    104  * '''xml''' -- XML
    105  * '''sh''' -- Bourne/Bash shell
    106 
    107 '''Note:''' ''Trac relies on external software packages for syntax coloring. See TracSyntaxColoring for more info.''
    108 
    109 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:
     191
     192Trac 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
     198Trac relies on external software packages for syntax coloring,
     199like [http://pygments.org Pygments].
     200
     201See TracSyntaxColoring for information about which languages
     202are supported and how to enable support for more languages.
     203
     204Note 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:
    110205{{{
    111206{{{
    … …  
    121216}}}
    122217
    123 The same is valid for all other mime types supported.
     218The same is valid for all other [TracSyntaxColoring#SyntaxColoringSupport mime types supported].
