highlightjs-curl

Support for using highlight.js to syntax highlight cURL commands. See https://highlightjs.org/ for more information about highlight.js. See https://curl.haxx.se/docs/manpage.html or in your shell use curl --help for more information about cURL.

Installation

Include the highlight.js script package in your webpage or node app, load this module and register it with hljs.

This cURL module is not part of the standard distribution and must be loaded separately. The module name is curl.min.js or curl, depending on how you reference the module from your bundler code.

Static website

Load the curl module after loading Highlight.js. Use the minified version found in the dist directory. This module is just a CDN build of the language, so it will register itself as the JavaScript is loaded.

<script type="text/javascript" src="/path/to/highlight.min.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="/path/to/curl.min.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript">
  hljs.highlightAll();
</script>

Using directly from the UNPKG CDN

<script type="text/javascript"
  src="https://unpkg.com/highlightjs-curl@1.3.0/dist/curl.min.js"></script>

• More info: https://unpkg.com

With Node or another build system

If you're using Node / Webpack / Rollup / Browserify, etc, simply require the language module, then register it with Highlight.js.

var hljs = require('highlight.js');
var hljsCurl = require('highlightjs-curl');

hljs.registerLanguage("curl", hljsCurl);
hljs.highlightAll();

Usage

Once loaded, mark the code you want to highlight with the language-curl class:

<pre><code class="language-curl">...</code></pre>

Without specifying the language, Highlight.js will attempt to auto-detect the grammar. Since this curl grammar is an extension of bash, it may detect bash or some other grammar instead. Therefore, always specify curl or language-curl.

For more information, follow instructions at highlightjs.org to learn how to include the library and CSS and other use cases. See Getting started for different integration and module options.
