2 | | |
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 | | 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. |
6 | | |
7 | | |
8 | | == Using Processors == |
9 | | |
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 | | |

| 2 | |
| 3 | Processors are WikiMacros that 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, such as: |
| 6 | - [#CodeHighlightingSupport syntax highlighting] or for rendering text verbatim |
| 7 | - rendering [#HTMLrelated Wiki markup inside a context] such as <div> or <span> blocks or within <td> or <th> table cells |
| 8 | - using an alternative markup syntax, like [WikiHtml raw HTML] and [WikiRestructuredText Restructured Text] or [https://www.booked.net/textism.html textile] |
| 9 | |
| 10 | == Using Processors |
| 11 | |
| 12 | To use a processor on a block of text, first delimit the lines using a Wiki ''code block'': |
| 13 | {{{ |
| 14 | {{{ |
| 15 | The lines |
| 16 | that should be processed... |
| 17 | }}} |
| 18 | }}} |
| 19 | |
| 20 | Immediately after the `{{{` or on the line just below, add `#!` followed by the ''processor name'': |
| 21 | |
| 22 | {{{ |
| 23 | {{{ |
| 24 | #!processorname |
| 25 | The lines |
| 26 | that should be processed... |
| 27 | }}} |
| 28 | }}} |
| 29 | |
| 30 | This is the "shebang" notation, familiar to most UNIX users. |
| 31 | |
| 32 | Besides their content, some Wiki processors can also accept ''parameters'', which are then given as `key=value` pairs after the processor name and on the same line. If `value` has to contain space, as it's often the case for the style parameter, a quoted string can be used (`key="value with space"`). |
| 33 | |
| 34 | As some processors are meant to process Wiki markup, it's quite possible to ''nest'' processor blocks. |
| 35 | You may want to indent the content of nested blocks for increased clarity, this extra indentation will be ignored when processing the content. |
| 36 | |

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). |

| 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. |
