实现 Markdown 语法和代码语法高亮分别是用的 Redcarpet 和 pygments.rb 两个 Gem：
https://github.com/vmg/redcarpet
https://github.com/tmm1/pygments.rb
https://github.com/richleland/pygments-css
http://pygments.org/docs/lexers/
在/Gemfile中添加如下两行：
gem 'redcarpet'gem 'pygments.rb'
需要说明的是，pygments.rb 依赖于 Python，所以确保机器已经安装了 Python 2.x。
然后在/app/controllers/comments_controller.rb中添加相应 redcarpet 和 pygments.rb 的代码：
class ApplicationController < ActionController::Base # Prevent CSRF attacks by raising an exception. # For APIs, you may want to use :null_session instead. protect_from_forgery with: :exception helper_method [:markdown] # Highlight code with Pygments class HTMLwithPygments < Redcarpet::Render::HTML def block_code(code, language) language = "text" if language.blank? sha = Digest::SHA1.hexdigest(code) Rails.cache.fetch ["code", language, sha].join("-") do Pygments.highlight(code, :lexer => language) end end end protected # Markdown with Redcarpet def markdown(text) renderer = HTMLwithPygments.new({
:filter_html => true, :hard_wrap => true, :link_attributes => {
:rel => 'external nofollow'}
}
) options = {
:autolink => true, :no_intra_emphasis => true, :fenced_code_blocks => true, :lax_html_blocks => true, :strikethrough => true, :superscript => true, :tables => true }
Redcarpet::Markdown.new(renderer, options).render(text).html_safe endend
最后在 View 中就可以直接调用 markdown 方法来处理博客正文了：
<%= markdown @post.content %>
语法规则类似 Github 上的 Markdown，码字效率大大提高。
