Some PHP packages are not free to download and because of that hosted in private repositories. In this case some credentials are needed to access such packages.

Informations about the package highlighter

Highlighter

A teeny-tiny PHP syntax highlighter. Uses PhpToken to convert PHP code into PHP language tokens, and then renders those tokens as HTML using either the default styles or custom ones you provide.

Usage

Vegetable.php

Using the following code:

results in the following HTML:

Each piece of the PHP code is rendered as an HTML <span> tag with inline styles applied to it. Special characters like quotes are converted into HTML entities and line breaks are rendered as <br> tags.

When rendered in a browser, the HTML will look like this:

Custom styles

The highlighting is 100% customizable.

Internally, the Highlighter class uses a token map and a style map. You can pass both to the constructor of the class and override the defaults. Your token map should contain PHP token codes (e.g. T_OPEN_TAG), grouped together using a keyword. Your style map should map CSS styles to the keywords you chose for your token map.

See the PHP docs for a list of all possible parser tokens.
