Python Source Code Types For Inline Syntax Highlighting

Python Inline Source 3: Syntax Highlighting Using Type Annotations

The original Python Inline Source by @JuroOravec

The PyPI package and VSCode extension have been migrated to:

• PyPI: sourcetypes3
• VSCode: chrx.python-inline-3

This project enables inline syntax highligting of strings in python source files for multiple languages using type annotations.

Supports html, css, javascript, typescript, sql, graphql, multiple css extension languages, template languages and many more, see below for a full list.

Uses typing.Annotated to annotate the str type with the language used. You can use typing.get_type_hints at runtime to determine the language that a string has been annotated with.

• sourcetypes Python Types Package.
• vscode-python-inline-source VS Code Plugin.
