Package Exports

ngx-highlightjs

This package does not declare an exports field, so the exports above have been automatically detected and optimized by JSPM instead. If any package subpath is missing, it is recommended to post an issue to the original package (ngx-highlightjs) to support the "exports" field. If that is not possible, create a JSPM override to customize the exports field for this package.

Readme

Angular Highlight.js

Super easy to use, auto highlight code and auto-detect language

Installation

To install this library, run:

$ npm install --save ngx-highlightjs

Head to highlight.js download page and get your custom package bundle including only the languages you need.
Create new folder in src/assets/highlight.js and extract the downloaded zip file.
import highlight.js script in index.html

<script src="assets/highlight.js/highlight.pack.js"></script>

import highlight.js theme in global style style.scss

@import 'assets/highlight.js/styles/monokai-sublime.css';

List of all available themes from highlight.js

SystemJS

If you are using SystemJS, you should also adjust your configuration to point to the UMD bundle.

In your systemjs config file, map needs to tell the System loader where to look for ngx-highlightjs:

map: {
  'ngx-highlightjs': 'node_modules/ngx-highlightjs/bundles/ngx-highlightjs.umd.js',
}

Here is a working plunker.

Usage

Import HighlightModule library from any module:

import { HighlightModule } from 'ngx-highlightjs';

@NgModule({
  imports: [
    // ...
    HighlightModule
  ]
})
export class AppModule { }
