Highlighting

Warning

There is an option to use the highlight shortcode from Hugo but we have disabled that feature as it is redundant to using ticks. All usage will throw an error in the Hugo build.

Example with highlighting one line

hclresource "azurerm_nginx_certificate" "cert1" {
  name                     = "examplecert"
  nginx_deployment_id      = azurerm_nginx_deployment.test.id
  key_virtual_path         = "/src/cert/soservermekey.key"
  certificate_virtual_path = "/src/cert/server.cert"
  key_vault_secret_id      = azurerm_key_vault_certificate.test.secret_id
}

Example with highlighting multiple consecutive lines (2-4)

hcl

1
2
3
4
5

resource "azurerm_nginx_certificate" "cert1" {
  name                     = "examplecert"
  nginx_deployment_id      = azurerm_nginx_deployment.test.id
  key_virtual_path         = "/src/cert/soservermekey.key"
  certificate_virtual_path = "/src/cert/server.cert"
  key_vault_secret_id      = azurerm_key_vault_certificate.test.secret_id
}

Values you can use for hl_lines are all non-zero positive integers. If you include a line number in hl_lines that does not exist (e.g. 16 in this example), it will highlight until the end.

  key_virtual_path         = "/src/cert/soservermekey.key"
  certificate_virtual_path = "/src/cert/server.cert"
  key_vault_secret_id      = azurerm_key_vault_certificate.test.secret_id
}
