""" pygments.plugin ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Pygments plugin interface. By default, this tries to use ``importlib.metadata``, which is in the Python standard library since Python 3.8, or its ``importlib_metadata`` backport for earlier versions of Python. It falls back on ``pkg_resources`` if not found. Finally, if ``pkg_resources`` is not found either, no plugins are loaded at all. lexer plugins:: [pygments.lexers] yourlexer = yourmodule:YourLexer formatter plugins:: [pygments.formatters] yourformatter = yourformatter:YourFormatter /.ext = yourformatter:YourFormatter As you can see, you can define extensions for the formatter with a leading slash. syntax plugins:: [pygments.styles] yourstyle = yourstyle:YourStyle filter plugin:: [pygments.filter] yourfilter = yourfilter:YourFilter :copyright: Copyright 2006-2023 by the Pygments team, see AUTHORS. :license: BSD, see LICENSE for details.
