NAME

Syntax::Highlight::JSON2 - syntax highlighting for JSON

SYNOPSIS

  use Syntax::Highlight::JSON2;
  my $syntax = "Syntax::Highlight::JSON2"->new;
  print $syntax->highlight($filehandle);

DESCRIPTION

Outputs pretty syntax-highlighted HTML for JSON. (Actually just adds <span> elements with class attributes. You're expected to bring your own CSS.)

There's nothing significant in the number "2" in the name of this module. There was just already a Syntax::Highlight::JSON on CPAN, which seems completely undocumented so I'm a little scared to use it!

Methods

highlight($input)

Highlight some JSON.

$input may be a file handle, filename or a scalar ref of text.

Returns a string of HTML.

tokenize($input)

This is mostly intended for subclassing Syntax::Highlight::JSON.

$input may be a file handle, filename or a scalar ref of text.

Returns an arrayref of token objects. The exact API for the token objects is subject to change, but currently they support TYPE and spelling methods.
