## Usage

### With [Shiki]

<details>
<summary>Static loading of a fixed set of languages</summary>

```ts
import { getSingletonHighlighter } from 'shiki'

import { createHighlightPlugin } from 'prosemirror-highlight'
import { createParser } from 'prosemirror-highlight/shiki'

const highlighter = await getSingletonHighlighter({
  themes: ['github-light'],
  langs: ['javascript', 'typescript', 'python'],
})
const parser = createParser(highlighter)
export const shikiPlugin = createHighlightPlugin({ parser })
```

</details>

<details>
<summary>Dynamic loading of arbitrary languages</summary>

```ts
import {
  getSingletonHighlighter,
  type BuiltinLanguage,
  type Highlighter,
} from 'shiki'

import { createHighlightPlugin } from 'prosemirror-highlight'
import { createParser, type Parser } from 'prosemirror-highlight/shiki'

let highlighter: Highlighter | undefined
let parser: Parser | undefined

/**
 * Lazy load highlighter and highlighter languages.
 *
 * When the highlighter or the required language is not loaded, it returns a
 * promise that resolves when the highlighter or the language is loaded.
 * Otherwise, it returns an array of decorations.
 */
const lazyParser: Parser = (options) => {
  if (!highlighter) {
    return getSingletonHighlighter({
      themes: ['github-light'],
      langs: [],
    }).then((h) => {
      highlighter = h
    })
  }

  const language = options.language as BuiltinLanguage
  if (language && !highlighter.getLoadedLanguages().includes(language)) {
    return highlighter.loadLanguage(language)
  }

  if (!parser) {
    parser = createParser(highlighter)
  }

  return parser(options)
}

export const shikiLazyPlugin = createHighlightPlugin({ parser: lazyParser })
```

</details>

<details>
<summary>Set code block background color based on theme</summary>

When using Shiki, two CSS variables are set automatically to the `<pre>` element:

- `--prosemirror-highlight`: The text color of the code block
- `--prosemirror-highlight-bg`: The background color of the code block

You can use these variables to set the background color and text color of the code block.

```css
.ProseMirror pre {
  color: var(--prosemirror-highlight, inherit);
  background-color: var(--prosemirror-highlight-bg, inherit);
}
```

import { common, createLowlight } from 'lowlight'

import { createHighlightPlugin } from 'prosemirror-highlight'
import { createParser } from 'prosemirror-highlight/lowlight'

const lowlight = createLowlight(common)
const parser = createParser(lowlight)
export const lowlightPlugin = createHighlightPlugin({ parser })
