I am using a HTML documentation page by an external service which renders JSON snippets within an HTML page. The HTML source code looks like this:
<pre>{
"product-link": "https://example.com/product-link",
"teaser_image": "https://example.com/teaser-image",
"product_image_first": "https://example.com/product-image-first",
"headline": "Example headline",
}</pre>
The JSON block renders without syntax highlighting. Since I am not in control of the external service I would like to apply syntax highlighting (color) to the JSON snippet via user script.
I found Greasemonkey but still missing the point on how to inject a syntax highlighter library.
Thanks to xander here is the first working version of my user script based on code-prettify:
(function(d) {
stylizePreElements = function() {
var preElements = document.getElementsByTagName("pre");
for (i = 0; i < preElements.length; ++i) {
var preElement = preElements[i];
preElement.className += "prettyprint";
}
};
injectPrettifyScript = function() {
var scriptElement = document.createElement('script');
scriptElement.setAttribute("src", "https://cdn.rawgit.com/google/code-prettify/master/loader/run_prettify.js");
document.head.appendChild(scriptElement);
};
stylizePreElements();
injectPrettifyScript();
})(document)
Thank you for making my day nicer!
