lang

The lang="name" attribute defines what lexer should be used. The language affects how the extension highlights the source code. See the section #Supported languages for details of supported languages.

def quick_sort(arr):
    less = []

<syntaxhighlight lang="python">
...
</syntaxhighlight>

Specifying an invalid or unknown name will tag the page with a tracking category. See the section #Syntax highlighting error category in this page for details.

line

def quick_sort(arr):
	less = []

<syntaxhighlight lang="python" line>
...
</syntaxhighlight>

start

The start attribute (in combination with line) defines the first line number of the code block. For example, line start="55" will make line numbering start at 55.

def quick_sort(arr):
    less = []

<syntaxhighlight lang="python" line start="55">
...
</syntaxhighlight>

linelinks

The linelinks attribute (in combination with line) adds link anchors to each line of the code block. You can click on the line numbers to get a link that highlights the selected line, and use them in internal and external links. You can also hold ⇧ Shift and click on another line number to get a link that highlights the selected range of lines (MediaWiki 1.42 • change 1007640 이후). When JavaScript is disabled, single-line highlights can be created and existing ones jump to the right location, but the highlight is missing; however, range highlights don’t work at all, so consider using single-line highlights only for accessibility if meaningfully possible. The value of the attribute is used as a prefix for the anchors, to distinguish multiple code blocks on one page.

def quick_sort(arr):
	less = []
	pivot_list = []
	more = []
	if len(arr) <= 1:
		return arr
	else:
		pass

Click here to jump to and highlight line 3 in the code block above. Click here to jump to and highlight lines 2-4 in the code block above.

<syntaxhighlight lang="python" line linelinks="example">
...
</syntaxhighlight>

[[#example-3|...]]
[[#example-2--example-4|...]]

highlight

The highlight attribute specifies one or more lines that should be marked (by highlighting those lines with a different background color). You can specify multiple line numbers separated by commas (for example, highlight="1,4,8") or ranges using two line numbers and a hyphen (for example, highlight="5-7").

def quick_sort(arr):
    less = []
    pivot_list = []
    more = []
    if len(arr) <= 1:
        return arr

<syntaxhighlight lang="python" line start="3" highlight="1,5-7">
...
</syntaxhighlight>

inline

The attribute indicates that the source code should be inline as part of a paragraph (as opposed to being its own block). This option is available starting with MediaWiki 1.26.

The following <syntaxhighlight lang="python" inline>lambda x: x * 2</syntaxhighlight> is a [[w:Lambda (programming)|lambda expression]] in Python.

class

style

The style attribute allows CSS attributes to be included directly. This is equivalent to enclosing the block in a ‎<div> (not ‎<span>) tag. The tab‑size attribute cannot be specified this way; it requires an enclosing ‎<span> tag as described below under Advanced.

For example:

def quick_sort(arr):
	less = []
	pivot_list = []
	more = []
	if len(arr) <= 1:
		return arr
	else:
		pass

<syntaxhighlight lang="python" style="border: 3px dashed blue;">
def quick_sort(arr):
	less = []
	pivot_list = []
	more = []
	if len(arr) <= 1:
		return arr
	else:
		pass
</syntaxhighlight>

copy

The copy attribute adds a button link that copies the content to the clipboard when clicked.

For example:

def quick_sort(arr):
    less = []

Is the result of:

<syntaxhighlight lang="python" copy>
def quick_sort(arr):
    less = []
</syntaxhighlight>

Lexers previously supported by GeSHi

설정

$wgSyntaxHighlightMaxLines and $wgSyntaxHighlightMaxBytes (optional): For performance reasons, blobs or pages (JS, Lua and CSS pages) larger than these values will not be highlighted. (since 1.40)

Linux

• $wgPygmentizePath (optional): Absolute path to pygmentize of the Pygments package. The extension bundles the Pygments package and $wgPygmentizePath points to the bundled version by default, but you can point to a different version, if you want to. For example: $wgPygmentizePath = "/usr/local/bin/pygmentize";.

Windows

• If you are hosting your MediaWiki on a Windows machine, you have to set the path for the Pygmentize.exe $wgPygmentizePath = "c:\\Python27\\Scripts\\pygmentize.exe";
  • If there is no pygmentize.exe run easy_install Pygments from command line inside the Scripts folder to generate the file.

If you are using the bundled pygmentize binary (extensions/SyntaxHighlight_GeSHi/pygments/pygmentize), make sure your webserver is permitted to execute it. If your host does not allow you to add executables to your web directory, install python-pygments and add $wgPygmentizePath = pygmentize to LocalSettings.php.

Troubleshooting

There could be cases, when some languages, such as Lua might not get highlighted and by turning on debugging, MediaWiki would throw out the error, Notice: Failed to invoke Pygments: /usr/bin/env: python3: No such file or directory.

• Try pointing $wgPygmentizePath in LocalSettings.php towards an external pygmentize binary.

• In shared hosting environments with cPanel, this can be done by setting up a new Python application through the "Setup Python App" menu, and activating the virtual environment for the app through SSH (source /virtualenv/python/3.5/bin/activate). After this, the Pygments module can be added to the Python app, for which navigate to the virtual environment path (cd virtualenv/python/3.5/bin/), download and install Pygments (./pip install Pygments) and then activate the module by adding "Pygments" under the "Existing applications" section of the "Setup Python App" menu. This will create the required file at path: virtualenv/python/3.5/bin/pygmentize

• See phab:T128993 on this for further suggestions and information.
• SELinux can also prevent the extension from running with an error similar to type=AVC msg=audit(1609598265.169:225924): avc: denied { execute } for pid=2360888 comm="bash" name="pygmentize" dev="dm-0" ino=50814399 scontext=system_u:system_r:httpd_t:s0 tcontext=unconfined_u:object_r:httpd_user_content_t:s0 tclass=file permissive=0 in your audit.log. This can be allowed with setsebool -P httpd_unified 1
• In earlier versions of this extension, Windows would sometimes fail with an _Py_HashRandomization_Init error. This was a bug with the Windows environment not being passed to python executions. A fix was released in 1.40, with backports to 1.38 and 1.39.

The plugin enables direct editing with VisualEditor. A popup is opened when a user wants to edit syntaxhighlight sections. For this to work, VisualEditor must be installed and configured from the latest Git version, same for Parsoid. The feature may not work with older Parsoid versions. See Extension:SyntaxHighlight/VisualEditor for details
