Add highlight.js' 3rd-party languages

[allejo]

highlight.js has 3rd-party languages that come in the format of external repositories. There is no standard repository format for said languages at the moment, see highlightjs/highlight.js#2328.

Depending on how bored I get and how quickly they come up with a standard will determine when these languages will come to highlight.php

Are you just planning to integrate them all as you have time?

[allejo]

I was originally planning on doing this as time allowed but since I saw highlightjs/highlight.js#2328 being active, I may wait to see where that discussion goes to see I can automate them all in one go. Is that spec something you plan on implementing in v10 or sooner?

[joshgoebel]

It's already done (merging any day to master). If you were using the JS version and wanted to build a HUGE meta release library you'd just:

cd extra
# git clone 50 repos
cd ..
node ./tools/build.js
# the goodies are in the build folder, ready to rock

After I burn thru the PR backlog I've created the past few days I want to start shipping some alpha/betas. Publish date is still early March.

[allejo]

You mean all of the 50 repos are structured or are supported by the highlight.js build system already? 😍 Or do you mean all of those repos are ready for v10, which will be published early March?

[joshgoebel]

All the repos should follow the spec. The new build system has all the magic.

highlightjs/highlight.js#2312

It should be merged in a few days but you can use it today if you switch to that branch. I presume the easiest thing for you is to use us to build the NPM assets then use that output to generate your static data. Likely whatever process you already use will “just work” without changes.
