Re: [nikola-discuss] Use code highlighting in html generated from a plugin [publications_list]

Thanks, this was exactly what I was looking for. I'll probably be able to 
work out the details from here. Thank you for the help.

Look at nikola/plugins/compile/rest/listing.py. You might be able to
re-use our CodeBlock class if you know how to invoke reST directives
manually, or you could just use pygments directly (with
pygments.highlight(code, lexer, formatter), consult that code for what
the three arguments are).

Re: [nikola-discuss] Use code highlighting in html generated from a plugin [publications_list]

[Adriaan Rol]

Hi Chris, 

Thanks for the quick reply. I know that simply changing the CSS does not 
work and that I need to invoke either the reST thing (or the pygments 
directly). My question is how do I invoke the reST thing from with in the 
plugin code. 

Thanks again for your help, 

Adriaan

Syntax highlighting is done by Nikola in Python, not in JS, so adding
CSS classes will have no effect. You would need to modify the plugin
so that it calls either the reST thing to generate code blocks, or use
pygments + NikolaPygmentsHTML directly, and put the pygments output in
the plugin’s output files.
