     1= reStructuredText Support in Trac
     2
     3== Introduction
     4
     5
     6Trac supports [http://docutils.sourceforge.net/docs/ref/rst/restructuredtext.html reStructuredText (RST)] as an alternative to wiki markup where WikiFormatting is used.
     7
     8From the reStucturedText webpage:
     9 "reStructuredText is an easy-to-read, what-you-see-is-what-you-get plaintext markup syntax and parser system. It is useful for in-line program documentation (such as Python docstrings), for quickly creating simple web pages, and for standalone documents. reStructuredText is designed for extensibility for specific application domains."
     10
     11If 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/1.4-stable/INSTALL.rst this example].
     12
     13The 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
     17To 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].
     18
     19=== More information on RST
     20
     21 * [http://docutils.sourceforge.net/rst.html reStructuredText Website]
     22 * [http://docutils.sourceforge.net/docs/rst/quickref.html RST Quick Reference]
     23
     24== Using RST in Trac
     25
     26To specify that a block of text should be parsed using RST, use the ''rst'' processor.
     27
     28=== TracLinks in reStructuredText
     29
     30 * Trac provides a custom RST directive `trac::` to allow TracLinks from within RST text.

     48
     49 * You can also use the custom `:trac:` role to create TracLinks in RST.

     69
     70=== Syntax highlighting in reStructuredText
     71
     72There is a directive for doing TracSyntaxColoring in RST as well. The directive is called code-block:
     73
     74||= Wiki Markup ||= Display ||
     75{{{#!td
     76  {{{
     77  {{{#!rst
     78
     79  .. code-block:: python
     80
     81     class Test:
     82
     83         def TestFunction(self):
     84             pass
     85
     86  }}}
     87  }}}
     88}}}
     89{{{#!td
     90  {{{#!rst
     91
     92  .. code-block:: python
     93
     94     class Test:
     95
     96         def TestFunction(self):
     97             pass
     98
     99  }}}
     100}}}
     101Note the need to indent the code at least one character after the `.. code-block` directive.
     102
     103=== Wiki Macros in reStructuredText
     104
     105To enable [WikiMacros Wiki Macros] in RST, you use the same `code-block` directive as for syntax highlighting:
     106
     107||= Wiki Markup ||= Display ||
     108{{{#!td
     109  {{{
     110  {{{#!rst
     111
     112  .. code-block:: RecentChanges
     113
     114     Trac,3
     115
     116  }}}
     117  }}}
     118}}}
     119{{{#!td
     120  {{{#!rst
     121
     122  .. code-block:: RecentChanges
     123
     124     Trac,3
     125
     126  }}}
     127}}}
     128
     129Or use the `:code-block:` role for a more concise Wiki Macro-like syntax:
     130
     131||= Wiki Markup ||= Display ||
     132{{{#!td
     133  {{{
     134  {{{
     135  #!rst
     136
     137  :code-block:`RecentChanges:Trac,3`
     138  }}}
     139  }}}
     140}}}
     141{{{#!td
     142  {{{#!rst
     143
     144  :code-block:`RecentChanges:Trac,3`
     145  }}}
     146}}}
     147

     150The example below should be self-explanatory:
