SyntaxHighlighter XQuery brush

I’ve just improved the code snippets in my posts by using the excellent SyntaxHighlighter by Alex Gorbatchev.

I had to write a new brush for XQuery, but this was pretty straightforward (it has a much better extension system than I found in Notepad++ for example). As well as XQuery 1.0 functions, keywords etc. I’ve included the MarkLogic 4.1 API.

Here’s an example..

xquery version '1.0-ml';
declare variable $URI as xs:string external;

declare function local:document-move-forest($uri as xs:string, $forest-ids as xs:unsignedLong*)
{
	xdmp:document-insert(
		$uri,
		fn:doc($uri),
		xdmp:document-get-permissions($uri),
		xdmp:document-get-collections($uri),
		xdmp:document-get-quality($uri),
		$forest-ids
	)
};

let $xml :=
  
    sdasdasdasd
  

If you want to use it download SyntaxHighlighter, and then get the XQuery brush files from GitHub:

Example usage:

<script type="text/javascript" src="scripts/shCore.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="scripts/shBrushXQuery.js"></script>
<link type="text/css" rel="stylesheet" href="styles/shCore.css"/>
<link type="text/css" rel="stylesheet" href="styles/shThemeDefault.css"/>
<link type="text/css" rel="stylesheet" href="styles/shThemeXQuery.css"/>
<script type="text/javascript">
	SyntaxHighlighter.config.clipboardSwf = 'scripts/clipboard.swf';
	SyntaxHighlighter.all();
</script>

<pre class="brush: xquery;">xquery version '1.0-ml';</pre>

Next job is to change the layout of this blog to make the content column wider...
