<prism-highlighter>

Syntax highlighting via Prism.

Place a <prism-highlighter> in your document, preferably as a direct child of <body>. It will listen for syntax-highlight events on its parent element, and annotate the code being provided via that event.

The syntax-highlight event's detail is expected to have a code property containing the source to highlight. The event detail can optionally contain a lang property, containing a string like "html", "js", etc.

This flow is supported by <marked-element>.

See: Documentation, Demo.

Usage

Installation

npm install --save @polymer/prism-element

In an html file

<html>
  <body>
    <div id="parent">
      <prism-highlighter></prism-highlighter>
      <div id="output"></div>
    </div>
  </body>
  <script type="module">
      import '@polymer/prism-element/prism-highlighter.js';
      import '@polymer/prism-element/prism-theme-default.js';
      import '@polymer/polymer/lib/elements/custom-style.js';
      import {html} from '@polymer/polymer/lib/utils/html-tag.js';

      // import prism theme styles
      const template = html`
        <custom-style>
          <style include="prism-theme-default"></style>
        </custom-style>
      `;

      document.head.appendChild(template.contents);

      const parent = document.getElementById('parent');
      const output = document.getElementById('output');
      const ev = new CustomEvent('syntax-highlight');

      // enter code and language here
      ev.detail = {
        code: 'p { background-color: blue }',
        lang: 'css',
      };
      parent.dispatchEvent(ev);

      // detail is modified by prism-highlighter
      output.innerHTML = ev.detail.code;
    </script>
</html>

In a Polymer 3 element

import {PolymerElement, html} from '@polymer/polymer';
import '@polymer/prism-element/prism-element.js';
import '@polymer/prism-element/prism-highlighter.js';
import '@polymer/prism-element/prism-theme-default.js';

class SampleElement extends PolymerElement {
  static get template() {
    return html`
      <style include="prism-theme-default"></style>
      <div id="parent">
        <prism-highlighter></prism-highlighter>
        <div id="output"></div>
      </div>
    `;
  }

  connectedCallback() {
    super.connectedCallback();
    const ev = new CustomEvent('syntax-highlight');

    // enter code and language here
    ev.detail = {
      code: 'p { background-color: blue }',
      lang: 'css',
    };
    this.$.parent.dispatchEvent(ev);

    // detail is modified by prism-highlighter
    this.$.output.innerHTML = ev.detail.code;
  }
}
customElements.define('sample-element', SampleElement);
