Svelte Prism Action

Svelte action for lazy render code blocks with prism.js.

svelte-prism-action

Svelte action for lazy loading Prism.js code highlighting languages from remote or local path.

Example

Example Page

The action uses IntersectionObserver to dynamically render code highlighting. The prism.js language file is lazy loaded when the <code> element gets visible in the viewport.

Installation

$ npm install svelte-prism-action

Include a Prism.js CSS theme in your svelte component or use the <head> section of your index.html.

<link
  href="https://unpkg.com/[email protected]/themes/prism.css"
  rel="stylesheet"
/>

Usage

Import prism from svelte-prism-action. Add the action to a component with use:prism. All <code> elements with a class="language-..." will get highlighted once they have entered the viewport.

For available language tags see https://prismjs.com/#supported-languages .

HINT If you are writing your codeblocks directly into a svelte component you need to escape special characters (eg. curley brackets). Another way is to wrap the code inside {``}.

<script>
  import { prism } from "svelte-prism-action";
</script>

<!-- add action to component -->
<main use:prism>
  <!-- or set some options
  <main use:prism={{
    componentsUrl: "https://myPathToPrism/components"
  }}>
-->

  <!-- use in code blocks -->
  <pre>
    <code class="lang-css">{` <!-- wrap inside {``} if using inside svelte component-->
      .bg-gold{
        background: gold;
      }
    `}
    </code>
  </pre>

  <!-- use inline -->
  <code class="lang-javascript"
    >{`import {prism} from "svelte-prism-action";`}</code
  >
</main>

Options

You can use componentsUrl to set the URL from where to import the Prism.js language files. By default it uses unpkg cdn, but you can use a local resource instead.

To lazy load third party language files (eg. prism-svelte) or define a different file per language you can use thirdPartyUrls object with language id as key and the URL as the value.

You can also change the IntersectionObserver options. For more information on what they do see https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/Intersection_Observer_API#Interfaces .

<main use:prism={{
  root: null,
  rootMargin: "100px",
  threshold: 0,
  componentsUrl: "https://unpkg.com/[email protected]/components",
  thirdPartyUrls: {
    svelte: "https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/[email protected]/index.js"
  }
}}>
...
</main>
