Bug ID: 471501
Summary: Add SyntaxHighlight extension.
Classification: Websites
Product: KDE MediaWiki
Version: unspecified
Platform: Other
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: general
Assignee: schwanc...@protonmail.com
Reporter: ash...@linuxcomp.ru
Target Milestone: ---
For the wiki pages, it would be good to show syntax highlighting. See for
example this page:
https://community.kde.org/Get_Involved/development/More#Build_Qt6_using_kdesrc-build
Long file content with lots of comments is hard to read when the comments and
actual code are the same color.
I currently manually colored the text there (opened in vim with kdesrc-buildrc
syntax installed, choosed a good theme (I used "shine", but made comments color
a bit more bright), saved with TOhtml command, replaced span attributes
class="" with syntax="...").
With that approach, it is hard to edit the wiki. The SyntaxHighlight
https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:SyntaxHighlight extension will allow
to make it automatically.
It uses Pygments (https://pygments.org), and it is said there that it is very
easy to create your own languages (for our case it is kdesrc-buildrc). But even
if not do this, we can just at least highlight it as bash, and this will
significantly easify reading (comments will be different color from the code).
