|
|
Sharing code is important, and blogging about it should be easy and beautiful.
|
|
That's why Octopress is packed with features to make blogging your code a breeze.
|
|
Though Jekyll comes with support for [Pygments syntax highlighting](http://pygments.org),
|
|
Octopress makes it way better. Here's how.
|
|
|
|
- A Sass port of [Solarized syntax highlighting](http://ethanschoonover.com/solarized) created specifically for Octopress.
|
|
- Gist code embedding - by [Brandon Tilly](https://gist.github.com/1027674).
|
|
- Insert code snippets from your filesystem with a download link.
|
|
- Easy inline code blocks with `<figure>` and `<figcaption>` and optional download links.
|
|
- Pygments caching - a [Jekyll community plugin](https://github.com/rsim/blog.rayapps.com/blob/master/_plugins/pygments_cache_patch.rb).
|
|
- Table based line numbers added with javascript.
|
|
|
|
## Solarized Highlighting
|
|
|
|
[Solarized](http://ethanschoonover.com/solarized) has a beautiful syntax highlighting color scheme, but reproducing it requires a highly sophisticated highlighting engine.
|
|
[Pygments](http://pygments.org) (the highlighter Jekyll uses) processes code snippets into styleable HTML, but it isn't nearly as powerful as the highlighting engine in Vim for example.
|
|
In order to port Solarized theme to octopress, I processed its [test files](https://github.com/altercation/solarized/tree/master/utils/tests) with Pygments and styled the output with Sass while comparing
|
|
them to the Vim rendered versions.
|
|
|
|
Check out the [test page](/docs/blogging/code/test) to see the results.
