# eleventy-plugin-syntaxhighlighting-chroma A module for handling syntax highlighting in [Eleventy](https://github.com/11ty/eleventy) using [Chroma](https://github.com/alecthomas/chroma); a syntax highlighter written in Go. There is no browser/client JavaScript required, the highlight transformations are all done at build-time. I am making using of the [chroma-highlight](https://github.com/krymel/chroma-highlight) NPM package to include `Chroma` support. (It handles downloading the required binary for the platform you are working on). This module/plugin used the 11ty plugin [eleventy-plugin-syntaxhighlight](https://github.com/11ty/eleventy-plugin-syntaxhighlight) as its basis. Finally, I use the [JSDom](https://www.npmjs.com/package/jsdom) package to add `pre` and `code` attributes to the syntax highlighted code. ## Supported Args in Code Blocks The first argument is always expected to be the language, at present there is no bugout/fail if a language is not provided first. (Nor in the original plugin) For example ```` ```js ``` ```` For Markdown, separate arguments with a `/`, this seems to be hard coded somewhere in 11ty itself. I haven't a workaround yet. ```` ```js/1,3:6 ``` ```` For `liquid` and `njk` you can use either `\` or spaces (` `) to separate the arguments. ### Currently Supported Arguments: - `lineNumbers` will add line numbers starting from 1 in the code block. - `lineNumbersStyle` if `table` is used, then code block will use a table to make it easier to drag and select the code. i.e `lineNumberStyle=table` - `lineNumbersStart` the number to start the line number count from. i.e `lineNumbersStart=200` - number **or** number,number **or** number:number **or** number,rangeStartNumber:rangeEndNumber **or** number,rangeStartNumber-rangeEndNumber to specify a line or lines to highlight. i.e `1`, `1,3`, `3:6`, or `1,3:6`, or `2,4-6`. **NOTE** if you use `lineNumbersStart` then the specified numbers must be relative to that (so `lineNumbersStart=200`, then use `204` to highlight line 204) ## Supported `options` in eleventy config You can specify some arguments in the options object in `.eleventy.js` config. ~~Options are considered defaults, and can be overridden by codeblock arguments.~~**TODO** Example of `options` object ``` eleventyConfig.addPlugin(syntaxHighlight, { theme: "monokai", lineNumbers: false, lexerOverrides: { njk: "vue", liquid: "swift", }, preAttributes: { tabindex: 0, testing: "ZX Spectrum Forever", blargh: "Grrr Argh", style: "border: purple 5px dashed", }, codeAttributes: { test: "123" }, }); ``` Theme can be set to one of these [themes](https://xyproto.github.io/splash/docs/all.html). If no theme is specified, then `monokai` is used. - `lineNumbers` will add line numbers starting from 1 for each code block. - `lineNumbersStyle` if `table` is used, then code block will use a table to make it easier to drag and select the code. - `lexerOverrides` a key value pair, for instance `liquid: "vue"` will mean that when the code comes across the language `liquid` it will use the `vue` lexer instead. Useful for rendering code blocks that `Chroma` doesn't support out of the box. ## TO DO - [✅] Support `.liquid` files - [✅] Add passed in `code` and `pre` atributes into returned html from chroma - [] Add testing - [] Add improve regex for line numbers - [] Add other arguments that chroma can take (`--html-tab-width`, `--html-highlight-style`, maybe `--html-linkable-lines`) ## Example output Highlight line 1 and 3 ```` ```js/1,3 let multilineString = ` this is the first line this is the middle line this is the last line `; ``` ```` ![](./images/hightlight-first-and-third-lines.png) Line numbers shown and highlighting range of lines 3 through 6 ```` ```js/3:6/lineNumbers let multilineString = ` this is the first line this is the second line this is the third line this is the fourth line this is the fifth line this is the sixth line this is the seventh line this is the eighth line `; ``` ```` ![](./images/highlight-range-with-line-numbers.png) Line numbers shown, line numbers set to start at 200, and highlighting range of lines 202 through 204 ```` ```js/202:204/lineNumbers/table/lineNumbersStart=200 let multilineString = ` this is the first line this is the second line this is the third line this is the fourth line this is the fifth line this is the sixth line this is the seventh line this is the eighth line `; ``` ```` ![](./images/highlight-range-with-line-numbers-arbitary-start-number.png) ## Available Themes The following themes are available: ``` abap algol algol_nu arduino autumn average base16-snazzy borland bw catppuccin-frappe catppuccin-latte catppuccin-macchiato catppuccin-mocha colorful doom-one doom-one2 dracula emacs friendly fruity github github-dark gruvbox gruvbox-light hr_high_contrast hrdark igor lovelace manni modus-operandi modus-vivendi monokai monokailight murphy native nord onedark onesenterprise paraiso-dark paraiso-light pastie perldoc pygments rainbow_dash rose-pine rose-pine-dawn rose-pine-moon rrt solarized-dark solarized-dark256 solarized-light swapoff tango trac vim vs vulcan witchhazel xcode xcode-dark ``` You can see examples of the [themes](https://xyproto.github.io/splash/docs/all.html). ## Available Lexers Chroma provides highlighting for the following. Note you can use the lexer name itself, for instance `ActionScript` or its aliases `as` or `actionscript`. **NOTE** If you spell the lexer incorrectly, or specify a language not understood by Chroma, then the build will fail. This was an intentional choice.

## Caveats At present `Chroma` doesn't have support for highlighting `njk` or `liquid` code. As an alternative you can use `vue` in your documents, or use `lexerOverride` in `.eleventy.js` to specify a different lexer to use if `njk` or `liquid` are found. Using this plugin is slower than either the offical highlighting plugin, or the [highlightjs](https://github.com/b-kelly/eleventy-plugin-highlightjs) plugin. More below. ## Thanks I am stepping on the shoulders of others. This plugin is based off of the official [eleventy-plugin-syntaxhighlight](https://github.com/11ty/eleventy-plugin-syntaxhighlight) plugin by Zach Leatherman et al. I modified its code to work with the Chroma highlighter. I pull in the [chroma-highlight](https://github.com/krymel/chroma-highlight) NPM package by krymel. It downloads the Chroma highlighter binary for the platform you are on, and makes it available through a function to call where you pass in the formatter to use, the language, and any options. Finally the [Chroma Highlighter](https://github.com/alecthomas/chroma) itself, by Alec Thomas. Tons of languages, themes, and its blazing fast. (Except when used this way) ## BENCH Results At the moment, this plugin is the slowest by a factor of 7-8. ``` offical: Wrote 5 files in 0.09 seconds (v1.0.2) highlightjs: Wrote 5 files in 0.11 seconds (v1.0.1) chroma: Wrote 5 files in 0.74 seconds (v1.0.2) ``` Each block of code to be highlighted is a call to the `chroma` executable, and takes about 10-20ms. Rendering a whole page using the executable itself from the command line takes roughly 0.030 seconds (or 30ms) on an M1 MacBook Air. ``` ❯ time node_modules/chroma-highlight/bin/chroma --formatter
