[Share code] MarkdownView
-
@JonB , thanks. It's was the full = True. Presto, all working. Including the line numbers and line hilighting. It's a very power lib for doing this sort of thing. Thanks for all your help.
I am just using 'colourful' style, passed a range to hilte rows 18-23. Will pay around with more of the API. -
@mikael , sorry long conversation on your share code. It went in a direction I didn't expect. But given I don't need editing this is great. The only bummer is that pygments is not a standard install for Pythonista
-
pygments is included in pythonista.
anyway, mikael MarkDownView is pretty neat. I really liked the use of the input accessory.
-
@JonB , well that makes sense. I hate making statements here. More wrong than right. I was sure I had checked for it, but maybe used a wrong case or something. But good to know it's included. I installed or reinstalled it using stash anyway 😱
-
@JonB , trying to create a small helper around pygments. Don't think it will be that useful to people, but will still share it when I am finished.
I know this sort of stuff you would just write inline, meaning you don't even have to think about it. But a lot of us, not there 😳Anyway here is the gist
-
@Phuket2: no worries, you kept the thread visible for a while, and looks like some more people found the MarkdownView because of it.
@JonB: Thanks! I have been refactoring this a bit for a specific purpose, essentially splitting into two separate components, TextView for editing markdown and a WebView that can be touched and you get the corresponding caret position in the markdown text.
Plus I changed the implementation to be proxy-wrapped to get rid of manual relaying of properties and methods.
Plus used a swipe down gesture to hide the keyboard instead of a "Done" button (to get more room on the iPhone - plus, feels nice).
Let me know if these are of specific interest, and I will take the time to polish & document & publish.
But @JonB, where's pygments? Does it have some different name on Pythonista?
-
I do like the proxy wrapper - your previous post certainly opened my eyes on this subject, and will inform my own custom components in the future.
pygments should be in the standard library /site packages. import pygments should just work... at least in the beta version.
-
@JonB, no, no pygments here, and I think Sir Phuket did not find it either. Maybe we should put it on the wishlist.
-
@mikael Hmm, are you sure?
pygments
should be included, and I'm fairly certain that was already the case in version 1.5 (or even 1.4). -
Pygments v1.6 has been in Pythonista for more than an year and is still in the current release and the current beta on 4 different iOS devices here.

@omz and all: My mistake. I could not find any documentation and the code completion did not offer up "pygments" - but if I just import it and run the script, it works - so it must be there somewhere. :-)
