### Custom Languages with Brushes

[](#custom-languages-with-brushes)

Code Bank uses [SyntaxHighlighter](https://github.com/alexgorbatchev/SyntaxHighlighter) to highlight code snippets, to provide a language with syntax highlighting you must add to your [yml configs](http://doc.silverstripe.org/framework/en/topics/configuration#setting-configuration-via-yaml-files) the following then run dev/build?flush=all.

```
CodeBank:
    extra_languages:
        - Name: "Example Language" #Name of the language
          HighlightCode: "example" #Highlighter code
          FileName: "ex" #File extension
          Brush: "mysite/javascript/shBrushEx.js" #Relative Path to the snippet highlighter brush
```

### Switching the search engine

[](#switching-the-search-engine)

By default Code Bank uses MySQL's fulltext searching and on databases like Postgres it uses a partial match filtering for searching both from the client and in the web interface. Code Bank provides support for switching the engine to Solr if you have the [silverstripe/fulltextsearch](https://github.com/silverstripe-labs/silverstripe-fulltextsearch) installed and a Solr server available. You may switch the search engine by adding the following to your mysite/\_config/config.yml after add flush=1 to the url to update the config cache.

```
CodeBank:
    snippet_search_engine: "SolrCodeBankSearchEngine"
```

#### Writing your own engine

[](#writing-your-own-engine)

Code Bank provides an api for you to hook in your own engine, you simply need to implement the [ICodeBankSearchEngine](https://github.com/UndefinedOffset/silverstripe-codebank/blob/master/code/search/ICodeBankSearchEngine.php) interface and define the methods in the interface. The key thing to remember is that the doSnippetSearch() method takes 3 parameters the first $keyword, is the term/keyword the user is searching for (this maybe empty), the second ($langugeID) is the database ID of the language the user is filtering to. The last parameter ($folderID) is the ID of the folder the system is requesting matches for. The method itself should always return a SS\_List subclass typically it should be DataList containing or pointing to only snippets. To enable your custom engine follow the [steps above](#switching-the-search-engine).
