metalsmith-code-highlight

build status codecov Greenkeeper badge

Finds content with <code> elements and highlights it using HighlightJS.

Example

Input:

<p>Hello there.</p>
<p>
  Inline <code class=lang-js>document.all</code>
</p>
<pre>
  <code class=lang-coffeescript>
    require "fs"
    console.log fs.readFileSync "/etc/passwd"'
  </code>
</pre>

Output:

<p>Hello there.</p>
<p class="lang-highlight">
  Inline <code class="lang-js hljs javascript"><span class="hljs-built_in">document</span>.all</code>
</p>
<pre class="lang-highlight">
  <code class="lang-coffeescript hljs">
    <span class="hljs-built_in">require</span> <span class="hljs-string">"fs"</span>
    <span class="hljs-built_in">console</span>.log fs.readFileSync <span class="hljs-string">"/etc/passwd"</span><span class="hljs-string">'</span>
  </code>
</pre>

Configuration

Supports the Highlight.js options (e.g. classPrefix, languages, tabReplace).

If you'd like to turn off automatic language detection, set {languages: []}. Only code blocks marked with an appropriate class like lang-js will be highlighted (useful when using fenced code blocks in Markdown).

By default, this plugin will highlight all code elements. You can override the selector for what to highlight by passing in a selector option like so: {selector: 'pre > code'}. This will only highlight <pre>'s immediate <code> children elements. This is a metalsmith-code-highlight specific option—it isn't part of highlight.js.

Using with metalsmith-dom-transform

If you're already using metalsmith-dom-transform, you can save a little bit of overhead by accessing the code highlight transform directly:

const domTransform = require('metalsmith-dom-transform');
const codeHighlightTransform = require('metalsmith-code-highlight/transform');

metalsmith.use(domTransform({
  transforms: [
    codeHighlightTransform(options),
    // Your other transforms go here
  ]
}));
