Wagtail Code Block is a syntax highlighted block for source code for the Wagtail CMS. It features real-time highlighting in the Wagtail editor, the front end, line numbering, and support for PrismJS themes.
It uses the PrismJS library both in Wagtail Admin and the website and requires jQuery.
from wagtailcodeblock.blocks import CodeBlock
class ContentStreamBlock(StreamBlock):
heading = TextBlock()
paragraph = TextBlock()
code = CodeBlock(label='Code')
You can also force it to use a single language by providing a language code which must be included in your WAGTAIL_CODE_BLOCK_LANGUAGES
setting:
code = CodeBlock(label='Bash Code', language='bash')
To install Wagtail Code Block simply run:
pip install wagtailcodeblock
And add wagtailcodeblock
to your INSTALLED_APPS
setting:
INSTALLED_APPS = [
...
'wagtailcodeblock',
...
]
Wagtail Code Block defaults to the PrismJS "Coy" theme, which looks good with Wagtail's CMS editor design. You can choose a different theme by configuring WAGTAIL_CODE_BLOCK_THEME
in your Django settings. PrismJS provides several themes:
- None: Default
- 'coy': Coy
- 'dark': Dark
- 'funky': Funky
- 'okaidia': Okaidia
- 'solarizedlight': Solarized Light
- 'twilight': Twilight
For example, in you want to use the Solarized Light theme: WAGTAIL_CODE_BLOCK_THEME = 'solarizedlight'
If you want to use the Default theme: WAGTAIL_CODE_BLOCK_THEME = None
You can customize the languages available by configuring WAGTAIL_CODE_BLOCK_LANGUAGES
in your Django settings.
By default, it will be set with these languages, since most users are in the Python web development community:
WAGTAIL_CODE_BLOCK_LANGUAGES = (
('bash', 'Bash/Shell'),
('css', 'CSS'),
('diff', 'diff'),
('html', 'HTML'),
('javascript', 'Javascript'),
('json', 'JSON'),
('python', 'Python'),
('scss', 'SCSS'),
('yaml', 'YAML'),
)
Each language in this setting is a tuple of the PrismJS code and a descriptive label. If you want use all available languages, here is a list:
