|
|
Learn theme uses [highlight.js](https://highlightjs.org/) to provide code syntax highlighting.
|
|
|
|
## Markdown syntax
|
|
|
|
Wrap the code block with three backticks and the name of the language. Highlight will try to auto detect the language if one is not provided.
|
|
|
|
<!-- markdownlint-disable MD046 -->
|
|
```plaintext
|
|
```json
|
|
[
|
|
{
|
|
"title": "apples",
|
|
"count": [12000, 20000],
|
|
"description": {"text": "...", "sensitive": false}
|
|
},
|
|
{
|
|
"title": "oranges",
|
|
"count": [17500, null],
|
|
"description": {"text": "...", "sensitive": false}
|
|
}
|
|
]
|
|
```
|
|
```
|
|
<!-- markdownlint-disable MD046 -->
|
|
|
|
Renders to:
|
|
|
|
```json
|
|
[
|
|
{
|
|
"title": "apples",
|
|
"count": [12000, 20000],
|
|
"description": {"text": "...", "sensitive": false}
|
|
},
|
|
{
|
|
"title": "oranges",
|
|
"count": [17500, null],
|
|
"description": {"text": "...", "sensitive": false}
|
|
}
|
|
]
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Supported languages
|
|
|
|
Learn theme ships with its own version of highlight.js to support offline browsing. The included package supports 38 common languages, as described on the [highlight.js download page](https://highlightjs.org/download/).
|
|
|
|
## Identifying failed language detection
|
|
|
|
Highlight will write a warning to the browser console if a requested language was not found. For example, the following code block references an imaginary language `foo`. An error will be output to the console on this page.
|
|
|
|
```plaintext
|
|
```foo
|
|
bar
|
|
```
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
```nohighlight
|
|
Could not find the language 'foo', did you forget to load/include a language module?(anonymous) @ highlight.pack.js
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Supporting additional languages
|
|
|
|
To support languages other than the 38 common languages included in the default highlight.js you will need to download your own version of highlight.js and add it to your site content.
|
|
|
|
### Download custom highlight.js
|
|
|
|
Visit [https://highlightjs.org/download/](https://highlightjs.org/download/) and select your desired language support. Note that more languages means greater package size.
|
|
|
|
### Add custom highlight.js to static resources
|
|
|
|
Inside the zip archive downloaded from highlight.js extract the file named `highlight.pack.js`. Move this file to the **new** location
|
|
|
|
```nohighlight
|
|
static/js/highlight.pack.js
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
**Do not** replace the existing file at `themes/hugo-theme-learn/static/js/highlight.pack.js`.
|
|
|
|
Including the file in the correct path will override the theme default highlight.pack.js and prevent issues caused in the future if the theme default file is updated.
|
|
