Hi BJ,
Thanks and you are right! That code snippet works. However, this is because
I made a mistake in my original post and somehow got the two code examples
switch places. Sorry, this must have caused a lot of confusion. The html
generated by ckeditor is the other one:
<pre><code class="language-python">import base64
with open("t.png", "rb") as imageFile:
str = base64.b64encode(imageFile.read())
print str</code></pre>
The code snippet you tested was the one generated by highlight.js, which
works as expected.
So, the issue remains. There is currently no way that I am aware of, in
which one can edit text in ckeditor that will also show up with syntax
highlighting in the rendered tiddler.
I understand that this is inherently due to the way ckeditor generates the
html using its codesnippet add-on and has nothing to do with VisualEditor
plugin. So, maybe we are out of luck in this case.
Still I am very interested to know if there is another way to markup text
in ckeditor (i.e. not using its code snippet add-on) that will show up as a
syntax highlighted code snippet in Tiddlywiki, hopefully without jumping
through too many hoops.
Best,
Altug
P.S. For completeness, I fix the description of problem in my original post
as follows:
---
... I attached two screenshots, one with ckeditor 'editor view' and one
with the rendered view of the resulting tiddler. Here are my observations:
1. Using ckeditor's codesnippet add-on: Syntax highlighting *works* in edit
view, but doesn't show up in the resulting tiddler.
2. Code snippet with Wikitext markup and TW5 highlight.js plugin: The
result is verbatim text with some html markup.
Here is the html source generated by case 1 i.e. using ckeditor and its
codesnippet add-on:
<pre><code class="language-python">import base64
with open("t.png", "rb") as imageFile:
str = base64.b64encode(imageFile.read())
print str</code></pre>
in comparison to what is generated using TW5 highlight.js plugin (in a
separate tiddler where syntax highlighting works):
<span class="hljs-keyword">with</span> open(<span class="hljs-string">
"t.png"</span>, <span class="hljs-string">"rb"</span>) <span class=
"hljs-keyword">as</span> imageFile:
str = base64.b64encode(imageFile.read())
<span class="hljs-keyword">print</span> str</code></pre>
