[not maintained] A code highlighting package for Meteor that's integrated with the core markdown package.

simple:highlight.js

A highlight.js package for Meteor that's integrated with the core markdown package and chuangbo:marked!

$ meteor add simple:highlight.js

In Meteor 1.3+, use npm

In Meteor 1.3 and above, you can and should simply use the highlight.js package from npm directly! This Meteor-specific version is no longer maintained.

Using standalone

Call the methods as described in the Highlight.js docs: http://highlightjs.readthedocs.org/en/latest/api.html.

Using with the Meteor markdown package or chuangbo:marked

This package is completely integrated with two markdown packages on the client and the server. Just put a code block in your markdown code:

{{#markdown}}
```
code goes here
```
{{/markdown}}

And the code will automatically be highlighted. Provide a language hint by adding a keyword like this:

{{#markdown}}
```js
var x = function () {};
```
{{/markdown}}

This package works not only with the markdown helper, but with the Showdown.makeHtml function in markdown called directly as well. This means it also works with simple:markdown-templating.
