shr-tag-pre-highlight - Syntax highlighting code block in HTML

Author: Chunyang Xu [email protected]
Version: 2

MELPA

This package adds syntax highlighting support for code block in HTML, rendered by shr.el. The probably most famous user of shr.el is EWW (the Emacs Web Wowser).

Example

Before After

In above, I am using EWW to visit https://emacs-china.org/t/eww/2949. And the color theme is sanityinc-tomorrow-eighties, from Steve Purcell's color-theme-sanityinc-tomorrow package

Installation

This package is available from MELPA. If you use use-package to manage the init file, use something like the following:

(use-package shr-tag-pre-highlight
  :ensure t
  :after shr
  :config
  (add-to-list 'shr-external-rendering-functions
               '(pre . shr-tag-pre-highlight))
  (when (version< emacs-version "26")
    (with-eval-after-load 'eww
      (advice-add 'eww-display-html :around
                  'eww-display-html--override-shr-external-rendering-functions))))

Why is eww-display-html advised for Emacs version older than 26

Unfortunately, EWW always overrides shr-external-rendering-functions until this commit (2015-12), but Emacs 25.2 (latest release - 2017-4) doesn't include this commit. Thus if you want syntax highlighting in EWW, you have to use devel version of Emacs (also know as emacs-26 at this moment) or advice eww-display-html as above.
