Release Notes

This page combines all release notes of the Expressive Code monorepo. You can find the source changelogs on GitHub in the subfolders of packages.

0.35.3

  • Fixes file names containing + not being recognized in file name comments. Thank you @amandaguthrie!

0.35.2

  • Fixes text marker labels including special characters like \ by properly escaping CSS variable contents. Thank you @stancl!

0.35.1

  • Fixes style and script assets not loading properly when used with MDX in Next.js.

    The MDX processing chain used by current Next.js versions caused unwanted escaping of the Expressive Code inline assets, which resulted in hydration issues and prevented features that depend on JS modules like the copy button from working.

    In these cases, Expressive Code now uses a different approach to inject the inline assets to ensure that no unwanted escaping occurs.

0.35.0

  • Adds the new package rehype-expressive-code as the successor to remark-expressive-code, which is now considered deprecated.

    If you’re using the Astro integration astro-expressive-code, you will be automatically using the new package and don’t need to do anything.

    If your project has a dependency on remark-expressive-code, you should replace it with rehype-expressive-code and pass it as a rehype plugin instead of a remark plugin. See the installation instructions for an example.

    The new package includes performance improvements and also works with the latest versions of MDX in popular site generators.

0.34.2

  • Updates dependencies to the latest versions. Thank you @bluwy!

0.34.1

  • Fixes a11y property tabindex="0" being set on non-scrollable code blocks.

    Instead of always adding tabindex="0" to the <pre> element of code blocks, a small JS module is now used to conditionally add the property to scrollable code blocks only. This ensures that scrollable regions can be accessed via keyboard navigation while avoiding audit warnings about tabindex being used on non-scrollable elements.

0.34.0

  • Merges JS modules into a single JS file asset to reduce the number of requests if multiple plugins add JS code.

  • Updates dependencies hast, hastscript and hast-util-* to the latest versions.

    Potentially breaking change: Unfortunately, some of the new hast types are incompatible with their old versions. If you created custom plugins to manipulate HAST nodes, you may need to update your dependencies as well and probably change some types. For example, if you were using the Parent type before, you will probably need to replace it with Parents or Element in the new version.

  • Adds a new /hast entrypoint to @expressive-code/core, expressive-code, remark-expressive-code and astro-expressive-code to simplify plugin development.

    This new entrypoint provides direct access to the correct versions of HAST types and commonly used tree traversal, querying and manipulation functions. Instead of having to add your own dependencies on libraries like hastscript, hast-util-select or unist-util-visit to your project and manually keeping them in sync with the versions used by Expressive Code, you can now import the internally used functions and types directly from this new entrypoint.

  • Improves plugin development experience by automatically restarting the dev server if any files imported into ec.config.mjs are changed.

    Before this update, only changes to ec.config.mjs itself were detected, so plugin development had to be done inside the config file if you wanted to see your changes reflected live in the dev server. Now, you can also develop your plugins in separate files and get the same experience.

    Note: As this feature relies on Vite’s module dependency graph, it currently only works if there is at least a single <Code> component on the page (which uses imports handled by Vite).

  • Ensures that static assets (styles and JS modules) are prerendered when using SSR adapters. Thank you @alexanderniebuhr!

    To achieve this, the previous approach of using injectRoute was dropped and the assets are now being handled by the Vite plugin.

  • Makes astro-expressive-code compatible with SSR adapters.

    To achieve this, the code responsible for loading the optional ec.config.mjs file was replaced with a new version that no longer requires any Node.js-specific functionality.

  • Makes Expressive Code compatible with Bun. Thank you @tylergannon for the fix and @richardguerre for the report!

    This fixes the error msg.match is not a function that was thrown when trying to use Expressive Code with Bun.

    Additionally, the type modifier was added to some imports and exports to fix further Bun issues with plugins and integrations found during testing.

  • Potentially breaking change: Since this version, all packages are only distributed in modern ESM format, which greatly reduces bundle size.

    Most projects should not be affected by this change at all, but in case you still need to import Expressive Code packages into a CommonJS project, you can use the widely supported await import(...) syntax.

  • Adds a data-language attribute to the <pre> element of rendered code blocks.

    The value is set to code block’s syntax highlighting language as specified in the opening code fence or <Code lang="..."> attribute (e.g. js or md).

    If a code block has no language specified, it will default to plaintext.

    You can use this attribute to apply styles to code blocks based on their language.

  • Adds definePlugin export to @expressive-code/core and all integrations to help define an Expressive Code plugin.

    Using this function is recommended, but not required. It just passes through the given object, but it also provides type information for your editor’s auto-completion and type checking.

  • Allows annotations to be defined as plain objects without the need to extend a class, as long as they have all properties required by ExpressiveCodeAnnotation.

  • Fixes types of PartialAstroConfig to match AstroConfig types.

  • Clones internal TinyColor instance with an object input instead of string input for faster parsing performance. Thanks @bluwy!

0.33.5

  • Updates handling of Astro config option build.assetsPrefix to support new file extension-based alternatives added in Astro 4.5.0.

  • Improves word wrap behavior on very narrow screens and when using larger font sizes by allowing wrapping to start at column 20 instead of 30.

  • Adds prerender: true flag to injected asset routes to enable hybrid rendering once it’s also supported for .ts entrypoints by Astro.

0.33.4

  • Rolls back even more plugin-shiki changes. They will be re-added later. :)

0.33.3

  • Reverts language loading of plugin-shiki to the previous behavior to work around an apparent race condition.

0.33.2

  • Improves error logging in case any plugin hooks fail.

0.33.1

  • Fixes an issue where lines containing a very long word after the initial indentation would wrap incorrectly.

0.33.0

  • Adds word wrap support to all Expressive Code blocks.

    By setting the new wrap prop to true (either in the opening code fence, as a prop on the <Code> component, or in the defaultProps config option), word wrapping will be enabled, causing lines that exceed the available width to wrap to the next line. The default value of false will instead cause a horizontal scrollbar to appear in such cases.

    The word wrap behavior can be further customized using the new preserveIndent prop. If true (which is the default), wrapped parts of long lines will be aligned with their line’s indentation level, making the wrapped code appear to start at the same column. This increases readability of the wrapped code and can be especially useful for languages where indentation is significant, e.g. Python.

    If you prefer wrapped parts of long lines to always start at column 1, you can set preserveIndent to false. This can be useful to reproduce terminal output.

  • Adds a new gutter API that allows plugins to render gutter elements before code lines.

    Using the new addGutterElement API accessible through the hook context argument, plugins can add gutter elements to a code block. The function expects an object matching the new GutterElement interface.

    During rendering, the engine calls the renderLine function of the gutter elements registered by all plugins for every line of the code block. The returned elements are then added as children to the line’s gutter container.

    Potentially breaking change: To properly support all combinations of gutter elements and line wrapping, the rendered HTML tree of code blocks had to be changed. The code contents of each line are now wrapped inside an extra <div class="code">...</div> element:

    <div class="ec-line">
    <div class="code">
    <span style="...">contents</span>
    [...more contents...]
    </div>
    </div>

    If gutter elements were added to a code block, an optional <div class="gutter">...</div> will be rendered before this new code wrapper:

    <div class="ec-line">
    <div class="gutter">
    [...gutter elements...]
    </div>
    <div class="code">
    <span style="...">contents</span>
    [...more contents...]
    </div>
    </div>
  • Adds ExpressiveCodeBlock.props property and defaultProps config option.

    The underlying ExpressiveCodeBlockProps interface provides a type-safe way for plugins to extend Expressive Code with their own props using declaration merging. Plugins should use the preprocessMetadata hook to merge options specified in the opening code fence into their props, making props the single source of truth for all per-block options.

    In addition, the new defaultProps config option allows you to specify default props that will automatically be set on all fenced code blocks and <Code> components by the engine. This saves you from having to specify the same props on every block, while still allowing to override them on an individual basis.

    The defaultProps option also supports an overridesByLang property, which allows to override the default props for a specific syntax higlighting language.

  • Adds metaOptions read-only property to ExpressiveCodeBlock instances.

    This new property contains a parsed version of the code block’s meta string. This allows plugins to easily access the options specified by users in the opening code fence of a code block, without having to parse the meta string themselves.

    All official plugins now use this new API to merge any meta options into the new extensible ExpressiveCodeBlock.props property.

  • Migrates syntax highlighting back to Shiki.

    After the improvements made in Shikiji were merged back into Shiki, Expressive Code now uses Shiki again for syntax highlighting.

    Potentially breaking: Although we performed a lot of testing, the migration might cause slightly different highlighting in some cases, as the latest full bundle of Shiki includes various new and updated grammars. We recommend checking if syntax highlighting still looks as expected on your site.

  • Adds nu and nushell to the list of terminal languages. Thanks @jacobdalamb!

  • Adds new collapsePreserveIndent prop to @expressive-code/plugin-collapsible-sections and replaces styleOverrides property closedPadding with closedPaddingBlock.

    The new prop determines if collapsed section titles (X collapsed lines) should be indented to preserve the minimum indent level of their contained collapsed code lines. This allows collapsed sections to integrate better with the surrounding code. Defaults to true.

    Breaking change: If you used the styleOverrides property closedPadding before to change the default padding around closed collapsed section headings, you must now use closedPaddingBlock instead. While the old property supported specifying paddings for all four sides, the new property only supports paddings in the block direction (top and bottom in horizontal writing mode). This change was necessary to make collapsed sections compatible with line wrapping and gutter elements.

  • Releases initial version of new optional plugin @expressive-code/plugin-line-numbers.

    See the full plugin documentation for more information.

0.32.4

  • Improves automatic color contrast correction when using CSS variables in styleOverrides. Thanks @heycassidy!

    It is now possible to use CSS variables in the styleOverrides setting codeBackground without negatively affecting the automatic color contrast correction controlled by the minSyntaxHighlightingColorContrast setting. If a CSS variable is encountered that cannot be resolved to a color value on the server, Expressive Code now automatically uses the theme’s background color as a fallback for color contrast calculations. You can also provide your own fallback color using the CSS variable fallback syntax, e.g. var(--gray-50, #f9fafb).

0.32.3

  • Improves error messages in case an ec.config.mjs file was found, but could not be loaded.

0.32.2

  • Fixes a race condition with missing styles when multiple <Code> components are rendered on the same page.

0.32.1

  • Fixes virtual API module not resolving without direct package dependency.

0.32.0

  • Adds a <Code> component that can be used to render code blocks with dynamic contents.

    In addition to rendering fenced code blocks in markdown & MDX documents, the Expressive Code Astro integration now also provides a <Code> component that can be used from .astro and .mdx pages.

    The <Code> component provides props like code, lang or meta that allow you to dynamically define a code block’s contents. Using this component, you can render code blocks from variables or data coming from external sources like files, databases or APIs.

0.31.0

  • It is now possible to add text labels to marked lines. Thanks @bdenham!

    The label text is rendered inside a colorful box in the first line of the marked range. This allows you to reference specific parts of your code in the surrounding text.

    To add any text as a label, enclose it in single or double quotes and add it directly after the opening curly brace, followed by a colon (:). For example, ins={"A":6-10} would mark lines 6 to 10 as inserted and add the label A to them.

0.30.2

  • Fixes missing CSS output for uiFontWeight and codeFontWeight style settings. Changed font weights are now properly respected. Thank you @depatchedmode!

  • Individual code blocks can now be switched to the base theme while an alternate theme is selected on the page level.

    Expressive Code differentiates between your base theme (= the first theme in themes) and your alternate themes (= any other entries in themes). Previously, as soon as an alternate theme was selected on the page level, e.g. by using <html data-theme="some-theme-name">, it wasn’t possible to switch individual code blocks to the base theme anymore because of selector specificity issues. This has been resolved and block-level overrides should work as expected now.

  • Fixes unexpected InlineStyleAnnotation behaviors to improve DX for plugin authors.

    • Inline styles now use :where() in selectors to reduce specificity and make them easier to override.
    • When applying multiple overlapping inline styles to the same line, render phases are now properly respected and later styles override earlier ones.
    • The styleVariantIndex property is no longer required. Inline styles without an index now apply to all style variants.
    • The default InlineStyleAnnotation render phase is now normal. The previous default setting earliest is now explicitly applied by plugin-shiki instead. This improves the API while still rendering syntax highlighting in the earliest phase to allow other annotations to wrap and modify the highlighted code.
  • Themes that use transparency in unexpected places (e.g. the rose-pine themes) are now displayed correctly.

0.30.1

  • Fixes parallel execution of multiple syntax highlighter creations and tasks.

    The Shiki plugin now ensures that async tasks like creating syntax highlighters, loading themes or languages are never started multiple times in parallel. This improves performance, reduces memory usage and prevents build errors on large sites.

0.30.0

  • Potentially breaking: Increases minimum supported Astro version to 3.3.0 (when Astro switched to Shikiji).

  • Changes the syntax highlighter used by plugin-shiki to Shikiji. Adds a shiki: { langs: [...] } option for loading custom languages.

    This change should not cause any differences in HTML output as all rendering is done by Expressive Code. The new langs option allows registering custom TextMate grammars in JSON form.

0.29.4

  • Unknown code block languages now log a warning and render as plaintext instead of throwing an error.

  • Adds the config option useStyleReset.

    This option determines if code blocks should be protected against influence from site-wide styles. This protection was always enabled before this release and could not be turned off.

    When enabled, Expressive Code uses the declaration all: revert to revert all CSS properties to the values they would have had without any site-wide styles. This ensures the most predictable results out of the box.

    You can now set this to false if you want your site-wide styles to influence the code blocks.

  • Sets prerender = true for injected routes to improve adapter support.

0.29.3

  • Fixes a warning in Astro 4 due to renamed “entryPoint” property. Adds Astro 4 to allowed peer dependencies.

0.29.2

  • Comments like // ... are now no longer incorrectly detected as file names. Thanks @kdheepak!

0.29.1

  • Fixes asset URLs when using non-default Astro config options for base, build.assets or build.assetsPrefix.

0.29.0

  • Updates default fonts to match Tailwind CSS.

    The previous set of default fonts could result in very thin character line widths on iOS devices. This is now fixed by using the same widely tested set of fonts that Tailwind CSS uses.

  • Cleans up frontmatter after file name comment extraction.

    If a file name comment gets extracted from a code block without a title attribute, additional cleanup work is now performed on the surrounding lines:

    • If the code block’s language supports frontmatter, and the comment was located in a frontmatter block that has now become empty, the empty frontmatter block gets removed.
    • If the line following the removed comment (or removed frontmatter block) is empty, it gets removed as well.

0.28.2

  • Uses import type in route handlers to avoid potential APIRoute warning.

0.28.1

  • Adds missing files entry to make emitExternalStylesheet option work.

    Sadly, this bug didn’t occur before actually publishing the package - it worked fine when linking the package locally. Sorry about that!

0.28.0

  • Adds emitExternalStylesheet option.

    Determines if the styles required to display code blocks should be emitted into a separate CSS file rather than being inlined into the rendered HTML of the first code block per page. The generated URL _astro/ec.{hash}.css includes a content hash and can be cached indefinitely by browsers.

    This is recommended for sites containing multiple pages with code blocks, as it will reduce the overall footprint of the site when navigating between pages.

    Important: To actually benefit from caching, please ensure that your hosting provider serves the contents of the _astro directory as immutable files with a long cache lifetime, e.g. Cache-Control: public,max-age=31536000,immutable.

    Defaults to true.

0.27.1

  • Fixes missing styleOverrides.collapsibleSections declaration even after importing @expressive-code/plugin-collapsible-sections. Thanks @fflaten!

0.27.0

  • Adds useDarkModeMediaQuery config option.

    This new option determines if CSS code is generated that uses a prefers-color-scheme media query to automatically switch between light and dark themes based on the user’s system preferences.

    Defaults to true if your themes option is set to one dark and one light theme (which is the default), and false otherwise.

  • Rendering multiple themes no longer generates duplicate CSS and HTML output.

    In previous versions, a full set of CSS styles was generated for each individual theme, and each code block was rendered multiple times to include the HTML for each theme.

    In this version, the CSS output has been changed to a single static set of base styles that uses CSS variables to allow efficient switching between themes.

    Also, the HTML output for code blocks is now generated only once, and theme-dependent styles are applied using CSS variables.

    These changes significantly reduce page size when using multiple themes, especially on pages with many code blocks.

    If you have added CSS code to your site that relies on the old output (e.g. by selectively hiding or showing theme-specific code blocks based on their class name), you will need to update it to work with the new output.

    Note: Before writing new custom CSS, please consider if you can achieve your desired result out of the box now. For example, if your themes option contains one dark and one light theme, the useDarkModeMediaQuery option will generate a prefers-color-scheme media query for you by default.

  • Adds minSyntaxHighlightingColorContrast config option.

    This new option determines if Expressive Code should process the syntax highlighting colors of all themes to ensure an accessible minimum contrast ratio between foreground and background colors.

    Defaults to 5.5, which ensures a contrast ratio of at least 5.5:1. You can change the desired contrast ratio by providing another value, or turn the feature off by setting this option to 0.

  • Config option textMarkers can no longer be an object.

    In previous versions, the textMarkers config option could be an object containing plugin options. This is no longer supported, as the only option that was available (styleOverrides) has been nested into the top-level styleOverrides object now.

    /** @type {import('remark-expressive-code').RemarkExpressiveCodeOptions} */
    const remarkExpressiveCodeOptions = {
    textMarkers: {
    styleOverrides: {
    markHue: '310',
    },
    },
    styleOverrides: {
    textMarkers: {
    markHue: '310',
    },
    // You could override other plugin styles here as well:
    // frames: { ... },
    },
    },
  • Moves all plugin styles into nested sub-objects of top-level config option styleOverrides.

    In previous versions, there could be multiple styleOverrides scattered through the configuration (one per plugin with configurable style settings). This has been simplified to a single top-level styleOverrides object that contains all style overrides.

    Plugins can contribute their own style settings to this object as well by nesting them inside under their plugin name.

    /** @type {import('remark-expressive-code').RemarkExpressiveCodeOptions} */
    const remarkExpressiveCodeOptions = {
    frames: {
    showCopyToClipboardButton: false,
    styleOverrides: {
    shadowColor: '#124',
    },
    },
    styleOverrides: {
    frames: {
    shadowColor: '#124',
    },
    // You could override other plugin styles here as well:
    // textMarkers: { ... },
    },
    },
  • Renames config option theme to themes.

    Efficient multi-theme support using CSS variables is now a core feature, so the theme option was deprecated in favor of the new array themes.

    Please migrate your existing config to use themes and ensure it is an array. If you only need a single theme, your themes array can contain just this one theme. However, please consider the benefits of providing multiple themes.

    /** @type {import('remark-expressive-code').RemarkExpressiveCodeOptions} */
    const remarkExpressiveCodeOptions = {
    theme: 'dracula',
    // Rename to `themes` and ensure it is an array
    // (also consider adding a light theme for accessibility)
    themes: ['dracula'],
    },
  • Adds cascadeLayer config option.

    This new option allows to specify a CSS cascade layer name that should be used for all generated CSS styles.

    If you are using cascade layers on your site to control the order in which CSS rules are applied, set this option to a non-empty string, and Expressive Code will wrap all of its generated CSS styles in a @layer rule with the given name.

  • Removes engine properties configClassName and themeClassName.

    The configClassName property was previously used to add a config-dependent class name to the CSS selectors used to style code blocks.

    As this property was automatically calculated by hashing the configuration object, it introduced a level of unpredictability, which has now been removed in favor of static base styles.

    The themeClassName property was previously used to add a theme-dependent class name to code blocks. Its format was ec-theme-<name>, where <name> was the kebab-cased name of the theme.

    As code blocks are now styled using CSS variables instead of generating multiple blocks for all themes and attaching class names to them, this property is no longer needed.

0.26.2

  • Fixes multiple different inline marker types on the same line. Thanks @7c78!

    The logic inside flattenInlineMarkerRanges had a flaw that caused various combinations of mark, ins and del inline markers on the same line to fail. This was fixed and more tests were added.

0.26.1

  • Re-initialize copy to clipboard buttons after Astro view transitions.

0.26.0

  • Themed selection now keeps the code foreground color intact (like VS Code).

    Color overlays no longer prevent text from being selectable.

  • Makes code blocks accessible by keyboard.

  • Improves caching logic to respect theme contents in addition to name.

0.25.0

  • Improves theme loading by allowing to pass more theme types directly.

    The theme config option now supports the following value types:

    • any theme object compatible with VS Code or Shiki (e.g. imported from an NPM theme package)
    • any ExpressiveCodeTheme instance (e.g. using ExpressiveCodeTheme.fromJSONString(...) to load a custom JSON/JSONC theme file yourself)
    • if you are using a higher-level integration like remark-expressive-code or astro-expressive-code:
      • any theme name bundled with Shiki (e.g. dracula)
    • any combination of the above in an array
  • Adds more colors to ExpressiveCodeTheme.applyHueAndChromaAdjustments, allows chaining.

    The applyHueAndChromaAdjustments() function now also adjusts titleBar.activeBackground and titleBar.border properly. Also, it returns the ExpressiveCodeTheme instance to allow chaining.

0.24.0

  • Renders frame borders on top of background, adds editorActiveTabHighlightHeight style setting.

    Previously, borders were rendered around the editor / terminal window, which could lead to unwanted empty margins between the window background and the drop shadow (e.g. in theme nord). Now, the border is rendered on top of the background to resolve this issue, making fully transparent borders act like padding instead.

    Additionally, the editorActiveTabHighlightHeight style setting was introduced, which allows customizing the colorful line that highlights the active editor tab. It defaults to borderWidth.

  • Migrates i18n functions to string templates with plural support.

    Translated texts including dynamic parts (e.g. a line count) previously used a function syntax. This was convenient to use during plugin development, but made it impossible to use the popular JSON file format as a source of translated texts. To make it easier to integrate Expressive Code, this release gets rid of the function syntax and adds a formatTemplate function that understands a simple string template syntax including placeholders and plural support.

    Simple placeholders are written as variable names in curly brackets, e.g. {variableName}.

    You can also use conditional placeholders by separating multiple choices with semicolons and optionally adding a condition before each choice, e.g. {itemCount;1=item;items} or {variableName; 0=zero; >0=positive; negative}.

  • Passes global styleOverrides to plugin style resolver functions.

    This allows plugins to access their individual styleOverrides extensions even when values were defined at the global config level.

0.23.0

  • Adds config option customizeTheme.

    This optional function is called once per theme during engine initialization with the loaded theme as its only argument.

    It allows customizing the loaded theme and can be used for various purposes:

    • You can change a theme’s name property to influence its generated CSS class name (e.g. theme.name = 'dark' will result in code blocks having the class ec-theme-dark).
    • You can create color variations of themes by using theme.applyHueAndChromaAdjustments().
  • Adds plugin styles to the styleOverrides config option.

    So far, this object only contained core styles like colors, fonts, paddings and more. Now, plugins also contribute their own style settings to this object.

    For example, if the frames plugin is installed, you can now override its shadowColor by setting styleOverrides.frames.shadowColor to a color value.

  • Adds applyHueAndChromaAdjustments function to ExpressiveCodeTheme.

    You can now apply chromatic adjustments to entire groups of theme colors while keeping their relative lightness and alpha components intact. This can be used to quickly create theme variants that fit the color scheme of any website or brand.

    Adjustments can either be defined as hue and chroma values in the OKLCH color space (range 0–360 for hue, 0–0.4 for chroma), or these values can be extracted from hex color strings (e.g. #3b82f6).

    You can target predefined groups of theme colors (e.g. backgrounds, accents) and/or use the custom property to define your own groups of theme colors to be adjusted.

  • Adds outer wrapper when rendering multiple themes.

    When the theme option is set to an array containing multiple themes, the rendered code block groups are now wrapped inside <div class="ec-themes-wrapper">...</div>. This encapsulates all rendered themes in a single element and thereby ensures their consistent positioning on sites that would otherwise add margins between them due to adjacent sibling combinators.

  • Adds styleOverrides to ExpressiveCodeTheme.

    Themes can now provide their own styleOverrides, which take precedence over global styleOverrides and the default styles.

  • Adds support for extracting file names from CSS file comments.

0.22.2

  • Hides summary marker on Safari for collapsible section.

0.22.1

  • Fixes shifted collapsible sections when other plugins add or remove lines.

0.22.0

  • Implements the plugin-collapsible-sections plugin, which adds support for collapsed sections of code. These sections hide a number of code lines until the user chooses to expand them. Thanks @birjj for the contribution!

0.21.0

  • Adds multi-theme support to the theme config option.

    You can now pass an array of themes to the theme config option of remark-expressive-code and astro-expressive-code.

    This allows you to render each code block in your markdown/MDX documents using multiple themes, e.g. to support light and dark modes on your site.

    Note: If you use this feature, you will also need to add custom CSS code to your site to ensure that only one theme is visible at any time.

    To allow targeting all code blocks of a given theme through CSS, the theme property name is used to generate kebap-cased class names in the format ec-theme-${name}. For example, theme: ['monokai', 'slack-ochin'] will render every code block twice, once with the class ec-theme-monokai, and once with ec-theme-slack-ochin.

0.20.0

  • Adds removeCommentsWhenCopyingTerminalFrames config option to plugin-frames. Thanks @AkashRajpurohit!

    If true (which is the default), the “Copy to clipboard” button of terminal window frames will remove comment lines starting with # from the copied text.

    This is useful to reduce the copied text to the actual commands users need to run, instead of also copying explanatory comments or instructions.

0.19.2

  • Adds support for Astro 3.0.0 incl. prereleases.

0.19.1

  • Adds support for CSS variables to option styleOverrides.terminalTitlebarDotsForeground. Thanks @delucis!

0.19.0

  • Adds support for diff-like syntax and lang meta attribute. Thanks for the idea @hirasso!

    To mark lines as inserted or deleted, you can now use the widely supported diff language as an alternative to adding line numbers to the opening code fence.

    You can even specify a separate syntax highlighting language by adding a lang="..." attribute to the opening fence. See README.md for more details.

0.18.1

  • Fixes possible querySelectorAll is not a function issue on page content changes

0.18.0

  • Adds support for ANSI formatted code blocks. Thanks @fflaten!

    You can now use the new language ansi to render code blocks containing ANSI escape sequences. This allows you to render colorful terminal output.

0.17.0

  • Adds support for Windows drive letters and typical path patterns to file name comment detection. Thanks @fflaten!

0.16.0

  • Improves file type support when extracting file names from comments. Thanks @fflaten!

0.15.0

  • Synchronizes package versions to prevent future dependency issues.

0.14.0

  • Adds support to override frame types per code block. Thanks @Princesseuh!

    By default, the plugin will automatically select the frame type (code editor or terminal) based on the language identifier in your code block’s opening fence.

    You can override this behavior and force a specific frame type by adding an optional frame="..." attribute after the language identifier.

    The supported values for this attribute are code, terminal, none and auto. The default value is auto.

0.13.0

  • Adds config options useThemedScrollbars and useThemedSelectionColors. Thanks @Princesseuh!

    Both options default to true. Set any of them to false to prevent themes from customizing their appearance and render them using the browser’s default style.
