Macros are a special type of plugin and are written in Python. A macro inserts dynamic HTML data in any context supporting WikiFormatting. + +The macro syntax is `[[macro-name(optional-arguments)]]`. + +'''WikiProcessors''' are another kind of macros. They are typically used for source code highlighting, such as `!#python` or `!#apache` and when the source code spans multiple lines, such as: + +{{{ +{{{#!wiki-processor-name +... +}}} +}}} + +== Using Macros + +Macro calls are enclosed in double-square brackets `[[..]]`. Like Python functions, macros can have arguments, which is then a comma separated list within parentheses `[[..(,)]]`. + +=== Getting Detailed Help + +The list of available macros and the full help can be obtained using the !MacroList macro, as seen [#AvailableMacros below]. + +A brief list can be obtained via `[[MacroList(*)]]` or `[[?]]`. + +Detailed help on a specific macro can be obtained by passing it as an argument to !MacroList, e.g. `[[MacroList(MacroList)]]`, or, more conveniently, by appending a question mark (`?`) to the macro's name, like in `[[MacroList?]]`. + +=== Example + +A list of the 3 most recently changed wiki pages starting with 'Trac': + +||= Wiki Markup =||= Display =|| +{{{#!td + {{{ + [[RecentChanges(Trac,3)]] + }}} +}}} +{{{#!td style="padding-left: 2em;" +[[RecentChanges(Trac,3)]] +}}} +|----------------------------------- +{{{#!td + {{{ + [[RecentChanges?(Trac,3)]] + }}} +}}} +{{{#!td style="padding-left: 2em;" +[[RecentChanges?(Trac,3)]] +}}} +|----------------------------------- +{{{#!td + {{{ + [[?]] + }}} +}}} +{{{#!td style="padding-left: 2em" +{{{#!html +<div class="trac-macrolist"> +<h3><code>[[Image]]</code></h3>Embed an image in wiki-formatted text. + +The first argument is the file, as in <code>[[Image(filename.png)]]</code> +<h3><code>[[InterTrac]]</code></h3>Provide a list of known <a class="wiki" href="/wiki/InterTrac">InterTrac</a> prefixes. +<h3><code>[[InterWiki]]</code></h3>Provide a description list for the known <a class="wiki" href="/wiki/InterWiki">InterWiki</a> prefixes. +<h3><code>[[KnownMimeTypes]]</code></h3>List all known mime-types which can be used as <a class="wiki" href="/wiki/WikiProcessors">WikiProcessors</a>. +</div> +}}} +etc. +}}} + +== Available Macros + +''Note that the following list will only contain the macro documentation if you've not enabled `-OO` optimizations, or not set the `PythonOptimize` option for [wiki:TracModPython mod_python].'' + +[[MacroList]] + +== Macros from around the world + +The [http://trac-hacks.org/ Trac Hacks] site provides a wide collection of macros and other Trac [TracPlugins plugins] contributed by the Trac community. If you are looking for new macros, or have written one that you would like to share, please visit that site. + +== Developing Custom Macros + +Macros, like Trac itself, are written in the [http://python.org/ Python programming language] and are developed as part of TracPlugins. + +For more information about developing macros, see the [trac:TracDev development resources] on the main project site. + +Here are 2 simple examples showing how to create a Macro. Also, have a look at [trac:source:tags/trac-1.0.2/sample-plugins/Timestamp.py Timestamp.py] for an example that shows the difference between old style and new style macros and at the [trac:source:tags/trac-0.11/wiki-macros/README macros/README] which provides more insight about the transition. + +=== Macro without arguments + +To test the following code, save it in a `timestamp_sample.py` file located in the TracEnvironment's `plugins/` directory. + +{{{#!python +from datetime import datetime +# Note: since Trac 0.11, datetime objects are used internally + +from genshi.builder import tag + +from trac.util.datefmt import format_datetime, utc +from trac.wiki.macros import WikiMacroBase + +class TimeStampMacro(WikiMacroBase): + """Inserts the current time (in seconds) into the wiki page.""" + + revision = "$Rev$" + url = "$URL$" + + def expand_macro(self, formatter, name, text): + t = datetime.now(utc) + return tag.strong(format_datetime(t, '%c')) +}}} + +=== Macro with arguments + +To test the following code, save it in a `helloworld_sample.py` file located in the TracEnvironment's `plugins/` directory. + +{{{#!python +from genshi.core import Markup + +from trac.wiki.macros import WikiMacroBase + +class HelloWorldMacro(WikiMacroBase): + """Simple HelloWorld macro. + + Note that the name of the class is meaningful: + - it must end with "Macro" + - what comes before "Macro" ends up being the macro name + + The documentation of the class (i.e. what you're reading) + will become the documentation of the macro, as shown by + the !MacroList macro (usually used in the WikiMacros page). + """ + + revision = "$Rev$" + url = "$URL$" + + def expand_macro(self, formatter, name, text, args): + """Return some output that will be displayed in the Wiki content. + + `name` is the actual name of the macro (no surprise, here it'll be + `'HelloWorld'`), + `text` is the text enclosed in parenthesis at the call of the macro. + Note that if there are ''no'' parenthesis (like in, e.g. + [[HelloWorld]]), then `text` is `None`. + `args` are the arguments passed when HelloWorld is called using a + `#!HelloWorld` code block. + """ + return 'Hello World, text = %s, args = %s' % \ + (Markup.escape(text), Markup.escape(repr(args))) + +}}} + +Note that `expand_macro` optionally takes a 4^th^ parameter ''`args`''. When the macro is called as a [WikiProcessors WikiProcessor], it is also possible to pass `key=value` [WikiProcessors#UsingProcessors processor parameters]. If given, those are stored in a dictionary and passed in this extra `args` parameter. In the other case, when called as a macro, `args` is `None`. (''since 0.12''). + +For example, when writing: +{{{ +{{{#!HelloWorld style="polite" -silent verbose +<Hello World!> +}}} + +{{{#!HelloWorld +<Hello World!> +}}} + +[[HelloWorld(<Hello World!>)]] +}}} + +One should get: +{{{ +Hello World, text = <Hello World!>, args = {'style': u'polite', 'silent': False, 'verbose': True} +Hello World, text = <Hello World!>, args = {} +Hello World, text = <Hello World!>, args = None +}}} + +Note that the return value of `expand_macro` is '''not''' HTML escaped. Depending on the expected result, you should escape it yourself (using `return Markup.escape(result)`) or, if this is indeed HTML, wrap it in a Markup object (`return Markup(result)`) with `Markup` coming from Genshi (`from genshi.core import Markup`). + +You can also recursively use a wiki Formatter (`from trac.wiki import Formatter`) to process the `text` as wiki markup: + +{{{#!python +from genshi.core import Markup +from trac.wiki.macros import WikiMacroBase +from trac.wiki import Formatter +import StringIO + +class HelloWorldMacro(WikiMacroBase): + def expand_macro(self, formatter, name, text, args): + text = "whatever '''wiki''' markup you want, even containing other macros" + # Convert Wiki markup to HTML, new style + out = StringIO.StringIO() + Formatter(self.env, formatter.context).format(text, out) + return Markup(out.getvalue()) +}}}
