    11= Wiki Processors =
    2 Processors are WikiMacros designed to provide alternative markup formats for the Trac Wiki engine. Processors can be thought of as ''macro functions to process user-edited text''.
    3 
    4 The wiki engine uses processors to allow using [wiki:WikiRestructuredText Restructured Text] and [wiki:WikiHtml raw HTML] in any wiki text throughout Trac.

     3Processors 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
     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]

    615== Using Processors ==
    7 To use a processor on a block of text, use a wiki blockquote, selecting a processor by name using ''shebang notation'' (#!), familiar to most UNIX users from scripts.
    8 
    9 '''Example 1''' (''inserting raw HTML in a wiki text''):
    10 
     16
     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.

    77152== Available Processors ==
     153
    78154The following processors are included in the Trac distribution:
    79  * '''html''' -- Insert custom HTML in a wiki page. See WikiHtml.
    80  * '''rst''' -- Trac support for Restructured Text. See WikiRestructuredText.
    81  * '''textile''' -- Supported if  [http://dealmeida.net/projects/textile/ Textile] is installed.
    82 
    83 === Code Highlighting Support ===
    84 Trac includes processors to provide inline [wiki:TracSyntaxColoring syntax highlighting] for the following languages:
    85  * '''c''' -- C
    86  * '''cpp''' -- C++
    87  * '''python''' -- Python
    88  * '''perl''' -- Perl
    89  * '''ruby''' -- Ruby
    90  * '''php''' -- PHP
    91  * '''asp''' --- ASP
    92  * '''sql''' -- SQL
    93  * '''xml''' -- XML
    94 '''Note:''' ''Trac relies on external software packages for syntax coloring. See TracSyntaxColoring for more info.''
    95 
    96 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:
    97 {{{
     155
     156|| '''`#!default`''' || Present the text verbatim in a preformatted text block. This is the same as specifying ''no'' processor name (and no `#!`) ||
     157|| '''`#!comment`''' || Do not process the text in this section (i.e. contents exist only in the plain text - not in the rendered page). ||
     158|||| ||
     159||||= '''HTML related''' =||
     160|| '''`#!html`''' || Insert custom HTML in a wiki page. ||
     161|| '''`#!htmlcomment`''' || Insert an HTML comment in a wiki page (''since 0.12''). ||
     162|| || Note that `#!html` blocks 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 the following processors for achieving a similar effect.  ||
     163|| '''`#!div`''' || Wrap an arbitrary Wiki content inside a <div> element (''since 0.11''). ||
     164|| '''`#!span`''' || Wrap an arbitrary Wiki content inside a <span> element (''since 0.11''). ||
     165|| '''`#!td`''' || Wrap an arbitrary Wiki content inside a <td> element (''since 0.12'') ||
     166|| '''`#!th`''' || Wrap an arbitrary Wiki content inside a <th> element (''since 0.12'') ||
     167|| '''`#!tr`''' || Can optionally be used for wrapping `#!td` and `#!th` blocks, either for specifying row attributes of better visual grouping (''since 0.12'') ||
     168|| || See WikiHtml for example usage and more details about these processors. ||
     169|||| ||
     170||||= '''Other Markups''' =||
     171|| '''`#!rst`''' || Trac support for Restructured Text. See WikiRestructuredText. ||
     172|| '''`#!textile`''' || Supported if [http://cheeseshop.python.org/pypi/textile Textile] is installed. See [http://www.textism.com/tools/textile/ a Textile reference]. ||
