No Elixir syntax highlighting in code blocks?

I notice that Elixir doesn’t seem to be supported by Checkvist’s fenced code blocks. I realise you’re likely dependent on whatever library you use - I’d be happy to follow up upstream if needed. Cheers.

Hi @crispinb ,

We’re using https://highlightjs.org/ and its default set of bundled popular languages does not include Elixir. But we’ve just updated the library and included it, too, so it should work now.

Cheers,
KIR

Yep it’s working for me. That’s terrific @maxkir - thanks very much.

Hey @maxkir,

Just piggybacking here, but I had the same question about PowerShell. It looks like HighlightJs does indeed support PowerShell, but I don’t see any syntax highlighting for that language. Any reason for that?

Thanks!

Nick

Hello @refactorsaurusrex ,

I have to add non-typical languages manually. Please check how PowerShell syntax works on https://beta.checkvist.com (use ```powershell prefix for that)

Best,

Beautiful! Thank you!!

Hi @rubaboo ,

We’ll add it on beta, hopefully later today.

Kind regards,
KIR

dos should be on beta, please check

It is, thank you.

If you are so inclined, these articles provide some insight on the most popular programming languages (not “config scripting” or “log viewing” formats).
