Lox syntax support for highlight.js

This repository provides syntax highlighting for the Lox language using highlight.js.

Dependencies

{
	"highlight.js": "^11.3.1"
}

Usage

Provided in the dist/ folder are 5 versions: iife (for browsers), es, umd, cjs, and amd (+ lox.mjs & lox.cjs in case they're needed). min and map files included also :sunglasses:.

Static HTML

To import lox make sure to include lox.js in the HTML:

<!-- jsdelivr -->
<script src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/gh/highlightjs/[email protected]/build/highlight.js"></script>
<script src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/highlightjs-lox/dist/iife/lox.js"></script>
<!-- unpkg -->
<script src="https://unpkg.com/@highlightjs/[email protected]/highlight.js"></script>
<script src="https://unpkg.com/highlightjs-lox/dist/iife/lox.js"></script>

and then:

<script>
	hljs.registerLanguage("lox", lox)
	hljs.initHighlightingOnLoad();
</script>

This will find and highlight code inside of <pre><code> tags; it tries to detect the language automatically. If automatic detection doesn’t work for you, you can specify the language in the class attribute:

<pre>
	<code class="lox">
		...
	</code>
</pre>

Node or other build systems

ES Modules, CommonJS, AMD and UMD can all be found in the dist/ folder.

To add the package run:

# npm
npm install highlight.js
npm install highlightjs-lox

# yarn
yarn add highlight.js
yarn add highlightjs-lox
