Display Python code on a webpage using highlight.js and jquery

Given this html fragment



<div class="row">
<div class="col-md-12">
<pre><code id="sourcecode" class="python">print "Hello World"</code></pre>
</div>
</div>


I try to change the actual displayed code on the fly, e.g.:



$.ajax({
type: 'GET',
url: '/api/1/strategy/source/json/{{ name }}',
dataType: "json",
success: function (response) {
console.log(response);
$("#sourcecode").textContent = response;
}
})


Unfortunately it doesn't work. Any hints for me?
(in the console log I see the correct response)

    I've no experience with highlight.js, but if you check the docs (highlightjs.org/usage), under "Custom Initialization", it appears you will need to re-run hljs.highlightBlock(block); after editing the #sourcecode element.

Have a look into the below example, specifically the success function inside your $.ajax function.



As long as the response is valid HTML, the h1js code should be working.

<script src="https://code.jquery.com/jquery-3.3.1.min.js"></script>
<link rel="stylesheet" href="//cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/highlight.js/9.13.1/styles/default.min.css">
<script src="//cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/highlight.js/9.13.1/highlight.min.js"></script>

</head>

<body>

<div class="row">
<div class="col-md-12">
<pre><code id="sourcecode" class="python">print "Hello World"</code></pre>
</div>
</div>

<script>
hljs.initHighlightingOnLoad();

$(function() {
$.ajax({
type: 'GET',
url: '/api/1/strategy/source/json/{{ name }}',
dataType: "json",

success: function (response) {
console.log(response);
$("#sourcecode").html(response);
$('pre code').each(function(i, block) {
hljs.highlightBlock(block);
});
}
});
});
</script>
