glorify's Introduction

glorify

Sinatra helper to parse markdown with syntax highlighting like the pros

Renders markdown via redcarpet with syntax highlighting thanks to pygments.rb.

Able to use fenced code blocks like github, and includes a default pygments stylesheet.

install

gem install glorify

or with bundler

# Gemfile
source :rubygems
gem 'sinatra'
gem 'glorify'

using Glorify::Template

glorify comes with a tilt template for rendering markdown.

this allows you to override the default markdown renderer and use redcarpet2 with pygments.rb to highlight any code blocks within your view.

in order to do this, you will need to prefer the template class.

Tilt.prefer Sinatra::Glorify::Template

then any views that render markdown will use Glorify::Template instead.

register Sinatra::Glorify
get '/' do
  markdown :a_view_with_code_blocks
end

using the helper

if you want to stick with your current renderer and just render some code blocks within your view, use the glorify helper method.

classical app

simply require 'glorify' to use the helper with a classic style sinatra app.

require 'sinatra'
require 'glorify'
require 'erb'
get '/' do
  @example = File.open("#{File.dirname(__FILE__)}/example.md", "rb").read
  erb :index
end

modular app

you'll need to register Sinatra::Glorify in your sub-classed app, along with require 'glorify', to use with a modular style sinatra app.

require 'sinatra/base'
require 'glorify'
require 'erb'
class SubclassedApp < Sinatra::Base
  register Sinatra::Glorify
  get '/' do
    @example = File.open("#{File.dirname(__FILE__)}/example.md", "rb").read
    erb :index
  end
end

the view

this is just a simple erb template, but you get the idea.

<html>
  <head>
    <link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="/pygments.css" />
  </head>
  <body>
    <%= glorify @example %>
  </body>
</html>

the default pygments stylesheet that comes with glorify is available at the /pygments.css route

on heroku

to make this work on heroku you'll have to use python2.6

heroku config:add GLORIFY_PYTHON=python2.6

thanks to @simon for pointing this out
