pygments-async v0.0.1

pygments-async

Fully asynchronous wrapper for Pygments

Usage

There are two functions exported by the package - pygmentize and pygmentizeFile.

pygmentize

Highlight a block of code

Example:

var pygmentize = require('pygments-async').pygmentize
  , markup;

pygmentize("puts 'Hello, world!'", {lexer: 'ruby'}, function(err, out) {
  // out contains pygmentized code
  markup = out;
});

Allowed options are:

• lexer: Specify lexer for pygmentize
• formatter: Specify pygmentize lexer

Options need not be specified. If no lexer is provided pygmentize will attempt to guess based on contents. The default formatter is html.

pygmentizeFile

Load a file and pygmentize it

var pygmentize = require('pygments-async').pygmentize
  , markup;

pygmentizeFile("package.json", function(err, out) {
  // out contains pygmentized package.json
  markup = out;
});
