     1= reStructuredText Support in Trac =
     2
     3Trac supports using ''reStructuredText'' (RST) as an alternative to wiki markup in any context WikiFormatting is used.
     4
     5From the reStucturedText webpage:
     6 "''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. ''"
     7
     8If you want a file from your Subversion repository be displayed as reStructuredText in Trac's source browser, set `text/x-rst` as value for the Subversion property `svn:mime-type`. See [trac:source:/trunk/INSTALL this example].
     9
     10=== Requirements ===
     11Note that to activate RST support in Trac, the python docutils package must be installed.
     12If not already available on your operating system, you can download it at the [http://docutils.sourceforge.net/rst.html RST Website].
     13
     14Install docutils using `easy_install docutils`. Do not use the package manager of your OS (e.g. `apt-get install python-docutils`), because Trac will not find docutils then.
     15

     22
     23== Using RST in Trac ==
     24To specify that a block of text should be parsed using RST, use the ''rst'' processor.
     25
     26=== TracLinks in reStructuredText ===
     27
     28 * Trac provides a custom RST directive `trac::` to allow TracLinks from within RST text.

     48
     49 * Trac allows an even easier way of creating TracLinks in RST, using the custom `:trac:` role.

     71
     72
     73=== Syntax highlighting in reStructuredText ===
     74
     75There is a directive for doing TracSyntaxColoring in RST as well. The directive is called
     76code-block
     77
     78||= Wiki Markup ||= Display ||
     79{{{#!td
     80  {{{
     81  {{{
     82  #!rst
     83
     84  .. code-block:: python
     85
     86     class Test:
     87
     88         def TestFunction(self):
     89             pass
     90 
     91  }}}
     92  }}}
     93}}}
     94{{{#!td
     95  {{{
     96  #!rst
     97
     98  .. code-block:: python
     99
     100     class Test:
     101
     102         def TestFunction(self):
     103             pass
     104
     105  }}}
     106}}}
     107Note the need to indent the code at least one character after the `.. code-block` directive.
     108
     109=== Wiki Macros in reStructuredText ===
     110
     111For doing [WikiMacros Wiki Macros] in RST you use the same directive as for syntax highlighting i.e code-block.
     112
     113||= Wiki Markup ||= Display ||
     114{{{#!td
     115  {{{
     116  {{{
     117  #!rst
     118
     119  .. code-block:: RecentChanges
     120
     121     Trac,3
     122
     123  }}}
     124  }}}
     125}}}
     126{{{#!td
     127  {{{
     128  #!rst
     129
     130  .. code-block:: RecentChanges
     131
     132     Trac,3
     133
     134  }}}
     135}}}
     136
     137Or a more concise Wiki Macro like syntax is also available, using the `:code-block:` role:
     138
     139||= Wiki Markup ||= Display ||
     140{{{#!td
     141  {{{
     142  {{{
     143  #!rst
     144
     145  :code-block:`RecentChanges:Trac,3`
     146  }}}
     147  }}}
     148}}}
     149{{{#!td
     150  {{{
     151  #!rst
     152
     153  :code-block:`RecentChanges:Trac,3`
     154  }}}
     155}}}
     156
     157=== Bigger RST Example ===
