| | 10 | |
| | 11 | If you want a file from your Subversion repository to be displayed as reStructuredText in the Trac source browser, set `text/x-rst` as the value for the Subversion property `svn:mime-type`, or add the extension `rst` to the filename. See [trac:source:branches/1.2-stable/INSTALL.rst this example]. |
| | 12 | |
| | 13 | The examples will only be rendered as reStructuredText if docutils is installed. If Pygments is installed but docutils is not installed, the examples will be syntax-highlighted rather than rendered as reStructuredText. |
| | 14 | |
| | 15 | === Requirements |
| | 16 | |
| | 17 | To activate RST support in Trac, install the python docutils package with the command `easy_install docutils`, or through your operating system package manager. If not already available on your operating system, you can download it from [https://pypi.python.org/pypi/docutils PyPI]. |

| | 24 | == Using RST in Trac |
| | 25 | |
| 22 | | === TracLinks in reStructuredText === |
| 23 | | |
| 24 | | * Trac provides a custom RST reference-directive 'trac' to allow TracLinks from within RST text. |
| 25 | | |
| 26 | | Example: |
| 27 | | {{{ |
| 28 | | {{{ |
| 29 | | #!rst |
| 30 | | This is a reference to |a ticket| |
| 31 | | |
| 32 | | .. |a ticket| trac:: #42 |
| 33 | | }}} |
| 34 | | }}} |
| 35 | | |
| 36 | | For a complete example of all uses of the ''trac''-directive, please see WikiRestructuredTextLinks. |
| 37 | | |
| 38 | | |
| 39 | | * Trac allows an even easier way of creating TracLinks in RST, using the custom '':trac:'' link naming scheme. |
| 40 | | |
| 41 | | Example: |
| 42 | | {{{ |
| 43 | | {{{ |
| 44 | | #!rst |
| 45 | | This is a reference to ticket `#12`:trac: |
| 46 | | |
| 47 | | To learn how to use Trac, see `TracGuide`:trac: |
| 48 | | }}} |
| 49 | | }}} |
| 50 | | |
| 51 | | === Syntax highlighting in reStructuredText === |
| 52 | | |
| 53 | | There is a directive for doing TracSyntaxColoring in ReST as well. The directive is called |
| 54 | | code-block |
| 55 | | |
| 56 | | Example |
| 57 | | |
| 58 | | {{{ |
| 59 | | {{{ |
| 60 | | #!rst |
| 61 | | |
| 62 | | .. code-block:: python |
| 63 | | |
| 64 | | class Test: |
| 65 | | |
| 66 | | def TestFunction(self): |
| 67 | | pass |
| 68 | | |
| 69 | | }}} |
| 70 | | }}} |
| 71 | | |
| 72 | | Will result in the below. |
| 73 | | |
| 74 | | {{{ |
| 75 | | #!rst |
| 76 | | |
| 77 | | .. code-block:: python |
| 78 | | |
| 79 | | class Test: |
| 80 | | |
| 81 | | def TestFunction(self): |
| 82 | | pass |
| 83 | | |
| 84 | | }}} |
| 85 | | |
| 86 | | === Wiki Macros in reStructuredText === |
| 87 | | |
| 88 | | For doing [WikiMacros Wiki Macros] in ReST you use the same directive as for syntax highlighting i.e |
| 89 | | code-block. To work you must use a version of trac that has #801 applied. |
| 90 | | |
| 91 | | === Wiki Macro Example === |
| 92 | | |
| 93 | | {{{ |
| 94 | | {{{ |
| 95 | | #!rst |
| 96 | | |
| 97 | | .. code-block:: RecentChanges |
| 98 | | |
| 99 | | Trac,3 |
| 100 | | |
| 101 | | }}} |
| 102 | | }}} |
| 103 | | |
| 104 | | Will result in the below: |
| 105 | | |
| 106 | | [[RecentChanges(Trac,3)]] |
| 107 | | |
| 108 | | Or a more concise Wiki Macro like syntax is also available: |
| 109 | | |
| 110 | | {{{ |
| 111 | | {{{ |
| 112 | | #!rst |
| 113 | | |
| 114 | | :code-block:`RecentChanges:Trac,3` |
| 115 | | }}} |
| 116 | | }}} |
| 117 | | |

| | 28 | === TracLinks in reStructuredText |

| | 72 | There is a directive for doing TracSyntaxColoring in RST as well. The directive is called code-block: |

| | 98 | |
| | 99 | }}} |
| | 100 | }}} |
| | 101 | Note the need to indent the code at least one character after the `.. code-block` directive. |
| | 102 | |
| | 103 | === Wiki Macros in reStructuredText |
| | 104 | |
| | 105 | To enable [WikiMacros Wiki Macros] in RST, you use the same `code-block` directive as for syntax highlighting: |

| | 107 | ||= Wiki Markup ||= Display || |
| | 108 | {{{#!td |
| | 109 | {{{ |

| | 126 | }}} |
| | 127 | }}} |
| | 128 | |
| | 129 | Or use the `:code-block:` role for a more concise Wiki Macro-like syntax: |
| | 130 | |

| | 132 | {{{#!td |
