syntax highlighting

Highlight JavaScript (HighlightJS) Integration is a drop-in replacement for SyntaxHighlight Pygments.  With the exception of languages supported by HighlightJS but not supported by Pygments, all MediaWiki markup written with HighlightJS Integration will also work with SyntaxHighlight Pygments as long as you use the same SYNTAXHIGHLIGHT element and the same language codes.

  1. MediaWiki: "HighlightJS Integration"
  2. Microsoft GitHub: "HighlightJS Integration"
  3. Microsoft GitHub: "HighlightJS Content Delivery Network (CDN) Release"
  4. MediaWiki: "Syntax Highlight"
  5. HighlightJS: "Demo"

Disable the SyntaxHighlight Extension before enabling the HighlightJS Integration Extension. 

# wfLoadExtension( 'SyntaxHighlight_GeSHi' );

wfLoadExtension( 'Highlightjs_Integration' ); # https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:Highlightjs_Integration#Installation

syntax highlighting languages

In order to ensure that pages with HighlightJS Integration are exportable to SyntaxHighlight Pygments, you need to check and make sure that you are using language codes supported by both libraries.

  1. HighlightJS Documentation: "Supported Languages"
  2. Pygments Syntax Highlighter: "Languages"
