Themes are sourced from popular Neovim colorschemes.
Use Autumn.available_themes/0
to list all available themes. You can specify a theme by name directly in the :theme
option, or use Autumn.Theme.get/1
to get a specific theme struct if you need to inspect or manipulate its styles.
# Using theme name
iex> Autumn.highlight!("setTimeout(fun, 5000);", language: "js", theme: "github_light")
~s|<pre class="athl" style="color: #1f2328; background-color: #ffffff;"><code class="language-javascript" translate="no" tabindex="0"><span class="line" data-line="1"><span style="color: #6639ba;">setTimeout</span><span style="color: #1f2328;">(</span><span style="color: #1f2328;">fun</span><span style="color: #1f2328;">,</span> <span style="color: #0550ae;">5000</span><span style="color: #1f2328;">)</span><span style="color: #1f2328;">;</span>
</span></code></pre>|
# Using theme struct
iex> theme = Autumn.Theme.get("github_light")
iex> Autumn.highlight!("setTimeout(fun, 5000);", language: "js", theme: theme)
You can also load custom themes from JSON files or strings:
# Load from JSON file
{:ok, theme} = Autumn.Theme.from_file("/path/to/your/theme.json")
Autumn.highlight!("your code", theme: theme)
# Load from JSON string
theme_json = ~s({"name": "my_theme", "appearance": "dark", "highlights": {"comment": {"fg": "#808080"}}})
{:ok, theme} = Autumn.Theme.from_json(theme_json)
Autumn.highlight!("your code", theme: theme)
It's also capable of handling incomplete or malformed code, useful for streaming like in a ChatGPT interface:
iex> Autumn.highlight!("const header = document.getEl", language: "js")
~s|<pre class="athl" style="color: #abb2bf; background-color: #282c34;"><code class="language-javascript" translate="no" tabindex="0"><span class="line" data-line="1"><span style="color: #c678dd;">const</span> <span style="color: #abb2bf;">header</span> <span style="color: #abb2bf;">=</span> <span style="color: #e86671;">document</span><span style="color: #848b98;">.</span><span style="color: #56b6c2;">getEl</span>
</span></code></pre>|
Autumn supports three output formatters:
Both HTML formatters wrap each line in a <span class="line">
element with a data-line
attribute containing the line number, making it easy to add line numbers or implement line-based features in your application.
See t:formatter/0 for more info examples.
Generates HTML with inline styles for each token:
iex> Autumn.highlight!("Atom.to_string(:elixir)", language: "elixir", formatter: :html_inline)
# or with options
iex> Autumn.highlight!("Atom.to_string(:elixir)", language: "elixir", formatter: {:html_inline, pre_class: "my-code", italic: true, include_highlights: true})
Options:
:pre_class
- CSS class for the<pre>
tag:italic
- enable italic styles:include_highlights
- include highlight scope names indata-highlight
attributes:highlight_lines
- highlight specific lines with custom styling:header
- wrap the highlighted code with custom HTML elements
Generates HTML with CSS classes for styling:
iex> Autumn.highlight!("Atom.to_string(:elixir)", language: "elixir", formatter: :html_linked)
# or with options
iex> Autumn.highlight!("Atom.to_string(:elixir)", language: "elixir", formatter: {:html_linked, pre_class: "my-code"})
Options:
:pre_class
- CSS class for the<pre>
tag:highlight_lines
- highlight specific lines with custom CSS class:header
- wrap the highlighted code with custom HTML elements
To use linked styles, you need to include one of the available CSS themes in your app.
For Phoenix apps, add this to your endpoint.ex
:
plug Plug.Static,
at: "/themes",
from: {:autumn, "priv/static/css/"},
only: ["dracula.css"] # choose any theme you want
Then add the stylesheet to your template:
<link phx-track-static rel="stylesheet" href={~p"/themes/dracula.css"} />
Generates ANSI escape codes for terminal output:
iex> Autumn.highlight!("Atom.to_string(:elixir)", language: "elixir", formatter: :terminal)
# or with options
iex> Autumn.highlight!("Atom.to_string(:elixir)", language: "elixir", formatter: {:terminal, italic: true})
Options:
:italic
- enable italic styles (if supported by your terminal)
