CodeRay

About

CodeRay is a Ruby library for syntax highlighting.

You put your code in, and you get it back colored; Keywords, strings, floats, comments – all in different colors. And with line numbers.

Syntax Highlighting

  • makes code easier to read and maintain
  • lets you detect syntax errors faster
  • helps you to understand the syntax of a language
  • looks nice
  • is what everybody wants to have on their website
  • solves all your problems and makes the girls run after you

Installation

gem install coderay

Dependencies

CodeRay needs Ruby 1.8.7+ or 1.9.2+. It also runs on Rubinius and JRuby.

Example Usage

require 'coderay'

html = CodeRay.scan("puts 'Hello, world!'", :ruby).div(:line_numbers => :table)

Documentation

See http://coderay.rubychan.de/doc/.

Credits

Special Thanks to

  • licenser (Heinz N. Gies) for ending my QBasic career, inventing the Coder project and the input/output plugin system. CodeRay would not exist without him.
  • bovi (Daniel Bovensiepen) for helping me out on various occasions.

Thanks to

  • Caleb Clausen for writing RubyLexer and lots of very interesting mail traffic
  • birkenfeld (Georg Brandl) and mitsuhiku (Arnim Ronacher) for PyKleur, now Pygments. You guys rock!
  • Jamis Buck for writing Syntax — I got some useful ideas from it.
  • Doug Kearns and everyone else who worked on ruby.vim – it not only helped me coding CodeRay, but also gave me a wonderful target to reach for the Ruby scanner.
  • everyone who uses CodeBB on http://www.rubyforen.de and http://www.python-forum.de
  • iGEL, magichisoka, manveru, WoNáDo and everyone I forgot from rubyforen.de

  • zickzackw
  • Dookie (who is no longer with us…) and Leonidas from http://www.python-forum.de

Where would we be without all those people?

Created using

Free

  • As you can see, CodeRay was created under heavy use of free software.
  • So CodeRay is also free.
  • If you use CodeRay to create software, think about making this software free, too.
  • Thanks :)
