When I output my logs in the dump() function using VarDumper, Is there any way I can change the color of some of the text in the strings that it outputs? I know this isn't the standard use of the function but If i want to view logs in an easy to read way Vardumper is great for this.
For instance, the strings are entirely green. If i add any HTML, it gets directly written to the page and not styled at all. I can't make text bold or anything.
Is there any workaround of this at all? In Unix I know I can escape the echo and write a number and it will color the following text red, Is there anything Like that I can do?
You should be able to use Dumpers, specifically the HtmlDumper to fiddle with the formatting of the HTML output.
$dumper = new HtmlDumper();
$dumper->setTheme('light');
$dumper->dump('Hello World!');
I imagine you could then extends the HtmlDumper Class to add your own themes.

Imagine I have a huge CSS file with e.g. more than 40000 lines, like https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/semantic-ui#2.4.2/dist/semantic.css
I want to explore this file and for example search for class definitions containing "hidden" in their name. How can this be done? The word "hidden" can also appear in the definition of the class, so a normal text search is not sufficient. So I am looking for a tool which is able to interpret the CSS file and then allows me to semantically search in it, understanding the difference between "hidden" in a class name and "hidden" in a class definition.
Any tips on this? Thanks!
Update: I am using Visual Studio Code, if there is a matching extension for it, that would be great. A separate tool would also be fine.
I’m not sure which text editor/IDE you are using but most IDE’s allow you to search for classes by name, in which case you could just use “hidden” as the input. In IntelliJ, the command for this is Ctrl+N. You’ll have to check your editor or IDE for the shortcut but a simple Google search should give you the answer.
I need to modify html coming from external file (server side) before I render it and inject a quote 'component' like this:
This component needs to be injected after 2nd paragraph and I'm planning to use htmlagillity pack. Any examples? Is HtmlNode.InsertAfter() method good choice once I found third paragraph which should be trivial.
Another question is would it be possible to inject sitecore placeholder or even usercontrol that is going to render my quote instead of pure html? I feel it should be but not sure what would be good approach.
Thanks
I can suggest two possible approaches here:
1) Use snippets with some customisation. Snippets allow users to insert pre-defined chunks of HTML into a RTE field. You could have a pre-defined piece of HTML which might have some identifier to indicate it should use custom processing (I would suggest some data-xxx style attribute which would not conflict with any CSS or JavaScript). Then you could create a new renderField pipeline processor which would detect the data-xxx attribute within the content of a rich text field - you would use HtmlAgilityPack for this and then replace that snippet with the contents of your server-side file.
-or-
2) Split your text content into two separate chunks and have two instances of a "HtmlText" rendering within the placeholder, with a rendering for your quote text between them in the same placeholder.
I would advise that having a rule to insert text after the second paragraph would be quite 'brittle' as this would be very reliant on content editors setting the rich text field contents in quite a precise way e.g. to always ensure two or more paragraphs and to always break text with paragraphs - they might decide to use a load of line breaks instead to split their text. That said if you did do this, you would create a new renderField pipeline processor.
I'm reading an Excel file (.xlsx) and outputting XML with PHP in a manner like this:
$cellVal = $objPHPExcel->getSheetByName($Sh)->getCellByColumnAndRow($tCol,$i)->getValue();
echo '<data_text>'.$cellVal.'</data_text>';
etc..
Everything is working perfectly, except when there's some styling -- italics, or bold, or both -- in a cell: the styling gets lost. Is there a clever way to retain it?
Things might be easier if it'd be the styling of a whole cell. But what if there's mixed styles?
Try using the cell's getFormattedValue() method rather than getValue() if you want the number masking.
Other styles such as italic, bold, etc can be returned by method calls to read the styling for a cell; but you need to decide how you're going to store that information in your own XML. For mixed styles, PHPExcel will let you parse the RichText Object that it returns; but again, you need to decide on how it should be stored in your own XML.
I'm using reStructuredText with epydoc. How can I have the text of an internal link different than the target of the link? I have:
:todo: Figure out the `Product.manufacturer` relationship in `Product`.
The Product link looks fine and links to the Product object. The Product.manufacturer link goes to the proper member variable, but instead of the text being Product.manufacturer, I'd like to just be manufacturer.
I know this can be done if I use epytext, but we'd like to stick with reStructuredText so that we can switch documentation generators later if we want to.
I'm not familiar with epydoc myself, but the normal reStructuredText way would be this:
`manufacturer <Product.manufacturer>`_
Or, with Sphinx,
:attribute:`manufacturer <Product.manufacturer>`
Considering that epydoc seems to have overridden the default role to provide links, it will be being left to it. However, this is the most likely to work:
:todo: Figure out the `manufacturer <Product.manufacturer>` relationship in `Product`.
I need the node titles to be able to display some text formatting.
As far as I understand, Drupal's title field is just plain text, it doesn't allow HTML or any other input format. Is that true? Is there a way to override this, or another solution?
I am working with Drupal 6.
You can pretty easily do this in your theme, there are different ways to do with. The simplest would probably to do it in your template.php
/* this function generates the variables that are available in your node.tpl,
* you should already have this in your template.php, but if not create it
*/
function mytheme_preprocess_node(&$vars) {
// It's important to run some kind of filter on the title so users can't
// use fx script tags to inject js or do nasty things.
$vars['title'] = filter_xss($vars['node']->title);
}
What happens in the function is that it overwrites the default value for $title in the node.tpl which holds the variable used for the title. It is usually placed within a h1 or h2 tag, so you should be aware of that. The filter_xss is used to only allow basic html tags, so protect the site, you can look at that function here. That are some other filter functions, like check_markup, and filter_xss_admin, but you can give a second param for filter_xss which is an array of allowed tags, so should the default not be good enough, you can just change it to fit your needs.
Use function mytheme_preprocess_page for D7.
Extending the module mentioned by wiifm, for D7 there is now also: https://drupal.org/project/html_title_trash
It allows more tags and also works for block titles, rather than just node titles.
