<p>If you want to extend Pygments without hacking the sources, but want to
use the lexer/formatter/style/filter lookup functions (<cite>lexers.get_lexer_by_name</cite>
et al.), you can use <a class="reference external" href="http://peak.telecommunity.com/DevCenter/setuptools">setuptools</a> entrypoints to add new lexers, formatters
or styles as if they were in the Pygments core.</p>
<p>That means you can use your highlighter modules with the <cite>pygmentize</cite> script,
which relies on the mentioned functions.</p>
<div class="section" id="entrypoints">
<h3>Entrypoints</h3>
<p>Here is a list of setuptools entrypoints that Pygments understands:</p>
<p><cite>pygments.lexers</cite></p>
<blockquote>
<p>This entrypoint is used for adding new lexers to the Pygments core.
The name of the entrypoint values doesn't really matter, Pygments extracts
required metadata from the class definition:</p>
<div class="syntax"><pre><span class="k">[pygments.lexers]</span>
<span class="na">yourlexer</span> <span class="o">=</span> <span class="s">yourmodule:YourLexer</span>
</pre></div>
<p>Note that you have to define <tt class="docutils literal">name</tt>, <tt class="docutils literal">aliases</tt> and <tt class="docutils literal">filename</tt>
attributes so that you can use the highlighter from the command line:</p>
<div class="syntax"><pre><span class="k">class</span> <span class="nc">YourLexer</span><span class="p">(</span><span class="o">...</span><span class="p">):</span>
<span class="n">name</span> <span class="o">=</span> <span class="s">'Name Of Your Lexer'</span>
<span class="n">aliases</span> <span class="o">=</span> <span class="p">[</span><span class="s">'alias'</span><span class="p">]</span>
<span class="n">filenames</span> <span class="o">=</span> <span class="p">[</span><span class="s">'*.ext'</span><span class="p">]</span>
</pre></div>
</blockquote>
<p><cite>pygments.formatters</cite></p>
<blockquote>
<p>You can use this entrypoint to add new formatters to Pygments. The
name of an entrypoint item is the name of the formatter. If you
prefix the name with a slash it's used as a filename pattern:</p>
<div class="syntax"><pre><span class="k">[pygments.formatters]</span>
<span class="na">yourformatter</span> <span class="o">=</span> <span class="s">yourmodule:YourFormatter</span>
<span class="na">/.ext</span> <span class="o">=</span> <span class="s">yourmodule:YourFormatter</span>
</pre></div>
</blockquote>
<p><cite>pygments.styles</cite></p>
<blockquote>
<p>To add a new style you can use this entrypoint. The name of the entrypoint
is the name of the style:</p>
<div class="syntax"><pre><span class="k">[pygments.styles]</span>
<span class="na">yourstyle</span> <span class="o">=</span> <span class="s">yourmodule:YourStyle</span>
</pre></div>
</blockquote>
<p><cite>pygments.filters</cite></p>
<blockquote>
<p>Use this entrypoint to register a new filter. The name of the
entrypoint is the name of the filter:</p>
<div class="syntax"><pre><span class="k">[pygments.filters]</span>
<span class="na">yourfilter</span> <span class="o">=</span> <span class="s">yourmodule:YourFilter</span>
</pre></div>
</blockquote>

<div class="section" id="how-to-use-entrypoints">
<h3>How To Use Entrypoints</h3>
<p>This documentation doesn't explain how to use those entrypoints because this is
covered in the <a class="reference external" href="http://peak.telecommunity.com/DevCenter/setuptools">setuptools documentation</a>. That page should cover everything
you need to write a plugin. Also <a class="reference external" href="http://lucumr.pocoo.org/2006/7/30/setuptools-plugins">this blog entry</a> might be interesting.</p>
</div>
<div class="section" id="extending-the-core">
<h3>Extending The Core</h3>
<p>If you have written a Pygments plugin that is open source, please inform us
about that. There is a high chance that we'll add it to the Pygments
distribution.</p>
