Syntax Coloring of Source Code

Trac supports language-specific syntax highlighting of source code within wiki formatted text in wiki processors blocks and in the repository browser.

To do this, Trac uses external libraries with support for a great number of programming languages.

Currently Trac supports syntax coloring using one or more of the following packages:

Pygments, the preferred system, as it covers a wide range of programming languages and other structured texts and is actively supported.
GNU Enscript, commonly available on Unix, and has an unsupported version on Windows; use is deprecated.
SilverCity, legacy system, some versions can be problematic; use is deprecated.

To activate syntax coloring, simply install either one (or more) of these packages. If none of these packages is available, Trac will display the data as plain text.

About Pygments

Pygments is a highlighting library implemented in pure Python, very fast, easy to extend and well documented.

The Pygments default style can specified in the mime-viewer section of your TracIni file. The default style can be overridden by setting a Style preference on the preferences page.

The list below contains only the most commonly used processors and the list of supported Pygments lexers is growing weekly.

Note that the rich content may be directly rendered instead of syntax highlighted. This usually depends on which auxiliary packages are installed and on which components are activated in your setup. For example a text/x-rst document will be rendered via docutils if it is installed and the trac.mimeview.rst.ReStructuredTextRenderer is not disabled, and will be syntax highlighted otherwise.

Similarly, a document with the mimetype text/x-trac-wiki is rendered using the Trac wiki formatter, unless the trac.mimeview.api.WikiTextRenderer component is disabled.

HTML documents are directly rendered only if the render_unsafe_html settings are enabled in your TracIni file. Those settings are present in multiple sections, as there are different security concerns depending where the document comes from. If you want to ensure that an HTML document gets syntax highlighted and not rendered, use the text/xml mimetype.

If a mimetype property such as svn:mime-type is set to text/plain, there is no coloring even if the file is of a known type, like java.

(1) Not included in the Enscript distribution. Additional highlighting rules can be obtained for Ruby, C#, Fortran 90x/2003.

(2) since Silvercity 0.9.7 released on 2006-11-23.

(3) By default .m files are considered Objective-C files. In order to treat .m files as MATLAB files, add "text/matlab:m" to the "mime_map" setting in the [mimeviewer] section of trac.ini.
