How to use other middleware, Rack::Pygmentize

[Victor Tolbert]

Hi,

I'd like to use [Rack::Pygmentize][1] with middleman.

The usage instructions seem pretty clear...

* Just add `use Rack::Pygmentize` to your `config.ru`. See the
[example][2] in the `/examples` directory.

I have the prerequisites...

* [Pygments][3] is installed and the `pygmentize` executable is
available in my `PATH`.

My `config.ru`:

require 'rubygems'
require 'middleman'

use Rack::Pygmentize
run Middleman::Server

By the way, middleman is awesome! Love it.

Thanks,
Victor

config.ru is only for hosting the site in a static fashion.

If you want to apply middleware directly against mm-server and have it work in mm-build, you'll need to place it in config.rb

Same syntax

require "rack/pygmentize"

use Rack::Pygmentize

See this example of how I use CodeRay (a pure ruby syntax highlighter):

Cool. Thanks! Maybe I'll just follow the example and just use CodeRay.
