+title: Captioning Jekyll highlighted code block
+date: 2023-05-27 19:22 +0200
+tags: Ruby Jekyll
+---
+Jekyll encloses code highlighted with @{% raw %}{% highlight_ %}{% endraw %}@
+Liquid tag inside @<figure>@ HTML tag. That in turn allows embeeding
+@<figcaption>@ tag and captioning code, e.g. with file path. Jekyll (v4.3.2)
+does not provide captioning, but can be extended with simple plugin.
+
+Plugin code used by this blog is
+"here.":https://gitea.michalczyk.pro/michalczyk.pro/blog/src/branch/master/_plugins/highlight-capion-options.rb
+
+The plugin will override @Jekyll::Tags::HighlightBlock.render()@ method. HTML
+code returned by this method can be manipulated using parser library like
+_Nokogiri_. Adding a single tag is simple enough, that it can be succesfully
+performed without additional libraries:
+
+{% highlight ruby caption=_plugins/highlight-caption-option.rb %}
+module HighlightCaption
+  ...
+
+  def render(*args)
+    caption = "<figcaption>#{@highlight_options[:caption]}</figcaption>"
+
+    match = super.match('<figure[^>]*>')
+    match.pre_match + match.to_s + caption + match.post_match
+  end
+end
+{% endhighlight %}
+
+Caption generating code can be freely modified. It can even
+process additional options passed to @{% raw %}{% highlight %}{% endraw %}@ tag.
+Options are only allowed to consist of alphanumeric characters and underscore.
+Passing file path as option requires loosening this restriction. We allow any
+non-blank character, except those used to control option format (options are
+allowed to be expressed as: _name_, _name=value_ and _name="quoted list"_)
+
+{% highlight ruby caption=_plugins/highlight-caption-option.rb %}
+module HighlightCaption
+  def self.prepended(mod)
+    syntax = mod.send(:remove_const, :SYNTAX).source.gsub('\\w', '[^[:^graph:]"=]')
+    mod.const_set(:SYNTAX, Regexp.new(syntax))
+    options = mod.send(:remove_const, :OPTIONS_REGEX).source.gsub('\\w', '[^[:^graph:]"=]')
+    mod.const_set(:OPTIONS_REGEX, Regexp.new(options))
+  end
+
+  ...
+end
+{% endhighlight %}
+
+Finally the modifications have to be @prepend@-ed to original class:
+
+{% highlight ruby caption=_plugins/highlight-caption-option.rb %}
+Jekyll::Hooks.register :site, :pre_render do |site|
+  Jekyll::Tags::HighlightBlock.prepend JekyllTagsExtensions::HighlightCaption
+end
+{% endhighlight %}
