===========
|

|
|
|

|
|
Highlight.js exports a few functions as methods of the ``hljs`` object.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
``highlight(name, value, ignore_illegals, continuation)``
|
||
|
|
---------------------------------------------------------
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Core highlighting function.
|
||
|
|
Accepts a language name, or an alias, and a string with the code to highlight.
|
||
|
|
The ``ignore_illegals`` parameter, when present and evaluates to a true value,
|
||
|
|
forces highlighting to finish even in case of detecting illegal syntax for the
|
||
|
|
language instead of throwing an exception.
|
||
|
|
The ``continuation`` is an optional mode stack representing unfinished parsing.
|
||
|
|
When present, the function will restart parsing from this state instead of
|
||
|
|
initializing a new one.
|
||
|
|
Returns an object with the following properties:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
* ``language``: language name, same as the one passed into a function, returned for consistency with ``highlightAuto``
|
||
|
|
* ``relevance``: integer value
|
||
|
|
* ``value``: HTML string with highlighting markup
|
||
|
|
* ``top``: top of the current mode stack
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
``highlightAuto(value, languageSubset)``
|
||
|
|
----------------------------------------
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Highlighting with language detection.
|
||
|
|
Accepts a string with the code to highlight and an optional array of language names and aliases restricting detection to only those languages. The subset can also be set with ``configure``, but the local parameter overrides the option if set.
|
||
|
|
Returns an object with the following properties:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
* ``language``: detected language
|
||
|
|
* ``relevance``: integer value
|
||
|
|
* ``value``: HTML string with highlighting markup
|
||
|
|
* ``second_best``: object with the same structure for second-best heuristically detected language, may be absent
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
``fixMarkup(value)``
|
||
|
|
--------------------
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Post-processing of the highlighted markup. Currently consists of replacing indentation TAB characters and using ``<br>`` tags instead of new-line characters. Options are set globally with ``configure``.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Accepts a string with the highlighted markup.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
``highlightBlock(block)``
|
||
|
|
-------------------------
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Applies highlighting to a DOM node containing code.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
This function is the one to use to apply highlighting dynamically after page load
|
||
|
|
or within initialization code of third-party Javascript frameworks.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The function uses language detection by default but you can specify the language
|
||
|
|
in the ``class`` attribute of the DOM node. See the :doc:`class reference
|
||
|
|
</css-classes-reference>` for all available language names and aliases.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
``configure(options)``
|
||
|
|
----------------------
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Configures global options:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
* ``tabReplace``: a string used to replace TAB characters in indentation.
|
||
|
|
* ``useBR``: a flag to generate ``<br>`` tags instead of new-line characters in the output, useful when code is marked up using a non-``<pre>`` container.
|
||
|
|
* ``classPrefix``: a string prefix added before class names in the generated markup, used for backwards compatibility with stylesheets.
|
||
|
|
* ``languages``: an array of language names and aliases restricting auto detection to only these languages.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Accepts an object representing options with the values to updated. Other options don't change
|
||
|
|
::
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
hljs.configure({
|
||
|
|
tabReplace: ' ', // 4 spaces
|
||
|
|
classPrefix: '' // don't append class prefix
|
||
|
|
// … other options aren't changed
|
||
|
|
})
|
||
|
|
hljs.initHighlighting();
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
``initHighlighting()``
|
||
|
|
----------------------
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Applies highlighting to all ``<pre><code>..</code></pre>`` blocks on a page.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
``initHighlightingOnLoad()``
|
||
|
|
----------------------------
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Attaches highlighting to the page load event.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
``registerLanguage(name, language)``
|
||
|
|
------------------------------------
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Adds new language to the library under the specified name. Used mostly internally.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
* ``name``: a string with the name of the language being registered
|
||
|
|
* ``language``: a function that returns an object which represents the
|
||
|
|
language definition. The function is passed the ``hljs`` object to be able
|
||
|
|
to use common regular expressions defined within it.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
``listLanguages()``
|
||
|
|
----------------------------
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Returns the languages names list.
|
||
|

``getLanguage(name)``

|
---------------------
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Looks up a language by name or alias.
|
||
|
|
