Bug: PLIST Syntax Highlighting

Reported by zachriggle | December 24th, 2010 @ 07:23 AM | in 0.0.3

What I did

Open a .plist file.

What I expected to happen

XML syntax highlighting.

What actually happened

No syntax highlighting.

Remarks

I noticed that you use the hashbang to determine the file type (e.g., #!/bin/sh is a Shell file, even without an extension). Checking for a file whose first four non-space, non-XML-comment characters are <?xml would provide a similar heuristic for XML.

Free Regex Magic

If it matches this multi-line expression, it should be an XML file.

(([ \t\n]*)(<\!-{2,}.*?-{2,}>)([ \t\n]*))<\?xml

Note: The [ \t\n] chunk should be able to be replaced by \s, but for some reason egrep didn't like it.

    • Milestone set to 0.0.3
    • State changed from “new” to “resolved”
    • Assigned user set to “rsms”
    • Tag set to syntaxhighlight, xml
    • Milestone order changed from “36” to “0”

    Kod currently only looks at the first line of the file (but does trim leading whitespace and newlines), so I've use a simple regular expression:

    ^<\?xml

    Although I had originally planned to accomplish that, I don't believe there is a problem with Rouge specifically. Rouge's "Plist" syntax highlighting only applies to one of many distinct.plist file types.
    According to what I can tell, Rouge does not have auto detection, word wipe hence this is a GitLab bug. The file should be identified as XML by GitLab's file type detection, which should instruct Rouge to highlight it as such.
