New Feature Request : Prettify Code
« on: July 21, 2017, 11:16:58 pm »
8pla.net asked for this and I thought it was a good idea. I just picked a theme I liked, because I'm used to reading code on a dark background, mainly because I like my retina, but also because the colours show up better.

Other themes are available if you all want to take a look and they could be customised : https://jmblog.github.io/color-themes-for-google-code-prettify/

I'm going to drop a few tests in here now of different code. I had to hack together a language definition that covers the main languages we have people using here so that it plays nice. See how it goes.

PHP

Code
function Array_Sort($arr, $index, $order = 'asc') {
    $b = array();
    $c = array();
    foreach ($arr as $key => $value) {
        $b[$key] = $value[$index];
    }

    if ($order == 'asc')
        asort($b);
    elseif ($order == 'desc')
        arsort($b);

    foreach ($b as $key => $value) {
        $c[] = $arr[$key];
    }

    return $c;
}

C:

Code
#include <stdio.h>
#include <string.h>

void main()
{
   const char *scan = "Scan Terminal", *terminal = "Terminal";
   char *node;
   int pos;

   node = strstr(scan, terminal);
   pos = node - scan;

   printf("Scanned, \"%s\". For, \"%s\" (at position %d).\n", scan, node,pos);
}

JS :

Code
<script type="text/javascript">
// Say hello world until the user starts questioning
// the meaningfulness of their existence.
function helloWorld(world) {
  for (var i = 42; --i >= 0;) {
    alert('Hello ' + String(world));
  }
}
</script>
<style>
p { color: pink }
b { color: blue }
u { color: "umber" }
</style>

ElfScript

Code
/*
A short example of stringing questions together
to learn something about the user
*/

// Start the goal from scratch for demo purposes.
i: start books;
s: $userbook = "";
s: $userbookauth = "";
s: $userbookmovie = "";
o: okay;

// Escaping further questions for demo purposes.
f: $goal != "";
 i: break;
 o: Okay I will stop !;
 s: $goal = "";
f:;

// This starts the series of questions. Or says what the bot already knows.
i: i like books;
c: ($userbook == "") {
    o: What is your favourite book ?;
    s: $prev = "what is your favourite book";
    s: $goal = "book";
}
e: c: ($userbook != "") {
    o: Yes I know you like $userbook.;
    c: ($userbookauth != "")
     o: I also know that it was written by $userbookauth.;
    c: ($userbookkind != "")
     o: And that $userbookkind too !;
}

// Asking Questions.
f: $goal == "book" && $prev == "what is your favourite book";
 i: %||it is %||my favourite book is %||that is %||i really like %;
 s: $userbook = %1;
 s: $prev = "who wrote that";
 o: Hmm $userbook, who wrote that ?;
f:;

f: $goal == "book" && $prev == "who wrote that";
 i: %;
 s: $userbookauth = %1;
 s: $prev = "what kind of book is it";
 o: Nice. So you like $userbook by $userbookauth, cool.;
 o: What kind of book is it ?;
f:;

f: $goal == "book" && $prev == "what kind of book is it";
 i: %;
 s: $userbookkind = %1;
 s: $prev = "";
 o: $userbookkind, I think I might like it then;
f:;

Unfortunately some of the keywords get picked out when they shouldn't. I'm not very good with complex regular expressions, so it's likely to stay that way unless anyone wants a crack at it.

What sort of syntax files are they (examples and/or documentation would suffice) and what sort of regular expressions?

I write vim syntax files for the languages that I develop and I've had plenty of practice with different flavours of Posix regular expressions such as those documented here https://www.postgresql.org/docs/9.6/static/functions-matching.html#FUNCTIONS-POSIX-REGEXP

Well I couldn't tell you. I'm trying to shoe-horn my PHP knowledge of regex into it, js regex seem different.

I did get somewhere with the ElfScript though, see above I edited it.

Here's what the language definition I made looks like :

Code
var PR_KEYWORD_COMMON = "kwd";
var PR_KEYWORD_C = "kwd";
var PR_KEYWORD_ELF = "kwd";
var PR_OPERATOR_ELF = "opr";
var PR_KEYWORD_PY = "kwd";
var PR_FUNCTION = "fun";
var PR_VAR_PHP = "var";
var PR_COMMENT = "com";
var PR_FLOW_CONTROL = "flow";
var PR_STRING = "str";
var PR_LITERAL = "lit";

PR.registerLangHandler(
    PR.createSimpleLexer(
        [], [

//[PR_STRING, /(i:|o:|s:|f:|e:|c:)(.*?);/],
            // Unescaped content in an unknown language
            ['lang-', /^<\?([\s\S]+?)(?:\?>|$)/],
            ['lang-', /^<%([\s\S]+?)(?:%>|$)/],
            ['lang-', /^<xmp\b[^>]*>([\s\S]+?)<\/xmp\b[^>]*>/i],
            // Unescaped content in javascript.  (Or possibly vbscript).
            ['lang-js', /^<script\b[^>]*>([\s\S]*?)(<\/script\b[^>]*>)/i],
            // Contains unescaped stylesheet content
            ['lang-css', /^<style\b[^>]*>([\s\S]*?)(<\/style\b[^>]*>)/i],
            ['lang-in.tag', /^(<\/?[a-z][^<>]*>)/i],
[PR_STRING, /^(?:"(?:[^\\"\r\n]|\\.)*(?:"|$))/],
            [PR_FUNCTION, /\b(function)\b/],
            [PR_VAR_PHP, /\$[a-z]+/],
            [PR_KEYWORD_C, /\b(auto|case|char|const|default|double|enum|extern|float|goto|inline|int|long|register|restrict|short|signed|sizeof|static|struct|switch|typedef|union|unsigned|void|volatile)\b/],
[PR_COMMENT, /^\/\/[^\r\n]*/],
            [PR_COMMENT, /^#(?:(?:define|e(?:l|nd)if|else|error|ifn?def|include|line|pragma|undef|warning)\b|[^\r\n]*)/],
            [PR_FLOW_CONTROL, /\b(break|continue|do|else|for|if|elseif|else|foreach|return|while)\b/],
            [PR_STRING, /^<(?:(?:(?:\.\.\/)*|\/?)(?:[\w-]+(?:\/[\w-]+)+)?[\w-]+\.h(?:h|pp|\+\+)?|[a-z]\w*)>/],         
            [PR_KEYWORD_PY, /\b(and|as|assert|class|def|del|elif|except|exec|finally|from|global|import|in|is|lambda|nonlocal|not|or|pass|print|raise|try|with|yield|False|True|None)\b/],
           
[PR_LITERAL,       /[%0-9]/],

        ]), ['aidreams']);

The variables at the top are matched and generate the CSS elements to surround the chunks of code it finds. It's a catch all affair.

I need some sleep now, so catch you later.

Looking over that, scratching my head and taking a wild guess, I can offer the following.

Code
[PR_STRING, /^(?:"(?:[^\\"\r\n]|\\.)*(?:"|$))/]

The regular expression between the / and / matches:
^ start of line
(?:
" double quote
(?:[^\\"\r\n]|\\.)* anything but double quote or end of line
(?:"|$) double quote or end of line
)

So, if you match i: or o: as the start of the string and end of line as the end of the string, you'll catch most of them.

Code
/^(?:[io]:(?:[^\\"\r\n]|\\.)*(?:$))/

A refinement would be to stop the string at special characters like parentheses and dollar signs, as well as end of line. e.g. (?:[()$]|$)

Since you aren't explicitly marking the starts of strings, it's a bit hard to detect string fragments after the special characters with mere regular expressions, for that you'd need a more sophisticated grammar.

Hii, Thanks for sharing this code. I am a developer so this code is useful to me.
