hljs.highlight is not a function

[dbruning]

I got this error (hljs.highlight is not a function) and it turned out to be because highlight.js revved to 10.1.1, and somewhere along the line it's now incompatible with vue-highlight.js

Workaround is to set the highlight.js version to ^9.11.0 in package.json.

Might want to revisit the decision not to Move highlight.js from peerDependencies into dependencies

I had a similar error message:

registerLanguage is not a function

Downgrading highlight.js to ^9.11.0 fixed that.

Thanks for the pointer!

highlightjs support Vue officially now.

import hljs from "highlight.js"
import "highlight.js/styles/github.css"
Vue.use(hljs.vuePlugin);

<highlightjs language='javascript' code="var x = 5;" />

Version 4 was released.
You can try it via npm install vue-highlight.js@next.
