+++
The `highlight` shortcode renders your code with a syntax highlighter.
2023-08-12 22:58:41 +00:00
{{< highlight lineNos="true" type="py" wrap="true" title="python" >}}
print("Hello World!")
{{< /highlight >}}
## Usage
2023-08-12 22:58:41 +00:00
This shortcode is fully compatible with Hugo's [`highlight` shortcode](https://gohugo.io/content-management/syntax-highlighting/#highlight-shortcode) but **offers some extensions**.
2023-08-12 22:58:41 +00:00
It is called interchangeably in the same way as Hugo's own shortcode providing positional parameter or by simply using codefences.
2024-02-22 22:17:04 +00:00
You are free to also call this shortcode from your own partials. In this case it resembles Hugo's [`highlight` function](https://gohugo.io/functions/highlight/) syntax if you call this shortcode as a partial using compatibility syntax.
While the examples are using shortcodes with named parameter it is recommended to use codefences instead. This is because more and more other software supports codefences (eg. GitHub) and so your markdown becomes more portable.

### Parameter
| Name | Position | Default | Notes |
|-----------------------|--------- | -----------------|-------------|
| **type** | 1 | _&lt;empty&gt;_ | The language of the code to highlight. Choose from one of the [supported languages](https://gohugo.io/content-management/syntax-highlighting/#list-of-chroma-highlighting-languages). Case-insensitive. |
2023-10-24 20:49:34 +00:00
| **title** | | _&lt;empty&gt;_ | **Extension**. Arbitrary title for code. This displays the code like a [single tab](shortcodes/tab) if `hl_inline=false` (which is Hugos default). |
| **wrap** | | see notes | **Extension**. When `true` the content may wrap on long lines otherwise it will be scrollable.<br><br>The default value can be set in your `hugo.toml` and overwritten via frontmatter. [See below](#configuration). |
| **options** | 2 | _&lt;empty&gt;_ | An optional, comma-separated list of zero or more [Hugo supported options](https://gohugo.io/functions/highlight/#options) as well as extension parameter from this table. |
| _**&lt;option&gt;**_ | | _&lt;empty&gt;_ | Any of [Hugo's supported options](https://gohugo.io/functions/highlight/#options). |
| _**&lt;content&gt;**_ | | _&lt;empty&gt;_ | Your code to highlight. |
## Configuration
Default values for [Hugo's supported options](https://gohugo.io/functions/highlight/#options) can be set via [goldmark settings](https://gohugo.io/getting-started/configuration-markup/#highlight) in your `hugo.toml`
Default values for extension options can be set via params settings in your `hugo.toml` or be overwritten by frontmatter for each individual page.
### Global Configuration File
2023-11-25 13:41:13 +00:00
You can configure the color style used for code blocks in your [color variants stylesheet](basics/branding#syntax-highlightning) file.
#### Recommended Settings
````toml
[markup]
[markup.highlight]
# line numbers in a table layout will shift if code is wrapping, so better
# use inline; besides that visually both layouts have the same look and behavior
lineNumbersInTable = false
# the shipped variants come with their own modified chroma syntax highlightning
2023-11-25 13:41:13 +00:00
# stylesheets which are linked in your generated HTML pages; you can use Hugo to generate
# own stylesheets to your liking and use them in your variant;
# if you want to use Hugo's internal styles instead of the shipped stylesheets:
# - remove `noClasses` or set `noClasses = true`
# - set `style` to a predefined style name
2023-11-25 13:41:13 +00:00
# note: with using the internal styles, the `--CODE-theme` setting in your variant
# stylesheet will be ignored and the internal style is used for all variants and
# even print
noClasses = false
# style = "tango"

#### Optional Settings
````toml

highlightWrap = true

## Examples
2023-08-12 22:58:41 +00:00
### Line Numbers with Starting Offset
As mentioned above, line numbers in a `table` layout will shift if code is wrapping, so better use `inline`. To make things easier for you, set `lineNumbersInTable = false` in your `hugo.toml` and add `lineNos = true` when calling the shortcode instead of the specific values `table` or `inline`.

# the hardest part is to start writing code; here's a kickstart; just copy and paste this; it's free; the next lines will cost you serious credits
print("Hello")
print(" ")
print("World")
print("!")
