Highlight Pulldown Code

A small library crate to apply syntax highlighting to markdown parsed with pulldown-cmark.

The implementation is based on the discussion at pulldown-cmark#167.

Usage

The crate exposes a single function, highlight. It takes an iterator over pulldown-cmark events and returns a corresponding Vec<pulldown_cmark::Event> where code blocks have been substituted by HTML blocks containing highlighted code.

let markdown = r#"
```rust
enum Hello {
    World,
    SyntaxHighlighting,
}
\`\`\`
"#;
let events = pulldown_cmark::Parser::new(markdown);

// apply a syntax highlighting pass to the pulldown_cmark events
let events = highlight_with_theme(events, "base16-ocean.dark").unwrap();

// emit HTML or further process the events as usual
let mut html = String::new();
pulldown_cmark::html::push_html(&mut html, events.into_iter());
