I\'m using blogger.com to host some texts on programming, and I\'d like to use Prettify (same as Stack Overflow) to nicely colour the code samples.
How do I ins
cdnjs providing the library "SyntaxHighlighter"
got to blogger >> template >> edit template add below code just before ending of the body tag and save template.
I have given Example for python.
you can link the other language script files from cdnjs.
syntax highlight code
<pre class="brush: py">
print("hello world")
</pre>
for other languages go and copy script: https://cdnjs.com/libraries/SyntaxHighlighter
<!-- syntax highlighter-->
<link href='https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/SyntaxHighlighter/3.0.83/styles/shThemeDefault.css' rel='stylesheet'/>
<script src='https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/SyntaxHighlighter/3.0.83/scripts/shCore.min.js'/>
<script src='https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/SyntaxHighlighter/3.0.83/scripts/shAutoloader.min.js'/>
<!-- for python -->
<script src='https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/SyntaxHighlighter/3.0.83/scripts/shBrushPython.min.js'/>
<!-- include other languages like javascript, php -->
<script language='javascript'>
SyntaxHighlighter.config.bloggerMode = true;
SyntaxHighlighter.all();
</script>
When you make a new entry in blogger, you get the option to use HTML in your entry and to edit your blog entries.
so type http://blogger.com , then login, then Posting>Edit Posts>Edit then in there put this at the top:
<script type="text/javascript" language="javascript" src="https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/prettify/r298/prettify.min.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" language="javascript" src="https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/prettify/r298/lang-css.min.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript">
function addLoadEvent(func) {
var oldonload = window.onload;
if (typeof window.onload != 'function') {
window.onload = func;
} else {
window.onload = function() {
if (oldonload) {
oldonload();
}
func();
}
}
}
addLoadEvent(function() {
prettyPrint();
});
</script>
<style type="text/css">
/* Pretty printing styles. Used with prettify.js. */
.str { color: #080; }
.kwd { color: #008; }
.com { color: #800; }
.typ { color: #606; }
.lit { color: #066; }
.pun { color: #660; }
.pln { color: #000; }
.tag { color: #008; }
.atn { color: #606; }
.atv { color: #080; }
.dec { color: #606; }
pre.prettyprint { padding: 2px; border: 1px solid #888; }
@media print {
.str { color: #060; }
.kwd { color: #006; font-weight: bold; }
.com { color: #600; font-style: italic; }
.typ { color: #404; font-weight: bold; }
.lit { color: #044; }
.pun { color: #440; }
.pln { color: #000; }
.tag { color: #006; font-weight: bold; }
.atn { color: #404; }
.atv { color: #060; }
}
</style>
Note that you shouldn't use prettyPrint
directly as an event handler, it confuses it (see the readme for details). Which is why we're passing addLoadEvent
a function that then turns around and calls prettyPrint
.
In this case because blogger does not allow us to link to the stylesheet, we just embed the prettify.css contents.
then add a <code></code>
tag or a <pre></pre>
tag with the class name of "prettyprint"
, you can even specify the language like this "prettyprint lang-html"
so it can look like this
<pre class="prettyprint lang-html">
<!-- your code here-->
</pre>
or like this
<code class="prettyprint lang-html">
<!-- your code here-->
</code>
the code that you put in needs to have its HTML cleaned from < and > to do this just paste your code in here: http://www.simplebits.com/cgi-bin/simplecode.pl
you can put the top code in your HTML layout so that its included for all pages by default if you like.
update
Now you can link CSS files in blogger,
so adding this to the <head>
should be enough
<link href="https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/prettify/r298/prettify.min.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" />
<script type="text/javascript" language="javascript" src="https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/prettify/r298/prettify.min.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" language="javascript" src="https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/prettify/r298/lang-css.min.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript">
document.addEventListener('DOMContentLoaded',function() {
prettyPrint();
});
</script>
I chose not to replace the body onload event on purpose, instead I'm using the new DOMContentLoaded event that the old browsers don't support, if you need old browser support, you can use any other load event to initiate prettyPrint, for example jQuery:
jQuery(function($){
prettyPrint();
});
or the supposedly smallest domready ever
and your done :)
Edit:
as Lim H pointed out in the comments, in case where you use the blogger dynamic views (ajax templates) then you need to use the method described here to bind custom javascript: prettyPrint() doesn't get called on page load
Use the guide here https://github.com/google/code-prettify
Basically just use this :)
<script src="https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/prettify/r298/run_prettify.min.js"></script>
<pre class="prettyprint"><code class="language-css">...</code></pre>
I would like to share my way with you because it's simple and has mobility.
Go to your blogger account click theme >> customize >> Advance >> Add CSS
then paste below CSS code
code {
font-family: Courier, monospace;
color: #000;
background-color: #f8f9fa;
border: 1px solid #eaecf0;
border-radius: 2px;
padding: 1px 4px;
}
pre, .mw-code {
padding: 5px;
font-family: Courier, monospace;
font-size: inherit;
line-height: 1rem;
color: #000;
background-color: #f8f9fa;
border: 1px solid #eaecf0;
padding: 1em;
white-space: pre-wrap;
overflow-x: hidden;
word-wrap: break-word;
}
To make things work, for example:
To check the MX record of a domain <code> nslookup </code> (in windows):<br />
<pre>temp = foo
foo = bar
bar = temp
</pre>
Not a direct answer to your question, but worth consider GitHub. You can get a free account and get syntax colored "gists" which you can share and host on your web page.
The downside is that the copy is hosted on Github's site and if that's down, then it's down for you too.
Here is the solution that works for me. Put in the <head>...</head>
of dynamic blogger HTML:
<script>
$(window.blogger.ui()).on('viewitem', function (event, post, element) {
prettyPrint();
});
</script>
The following worked for me immediately.
<head>
in the "Edit template" field:snippet:
<link href='http://google-code-prettify.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/src/prettify.css' rel='stylesheet' type='text/css'/>
<script src='http://google-code-prettify.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/src/prettify.js' type='text/javascript'></script>
</head>
replace <body>
with <body onload='prettyPrint()'>
<pre class="prettyprint">int foo=0;
NSLog(@"%i", foo);
</pre>
