Rouge provides lots of different code block "hints". If you leave off the hint, it tries to guess and sometimes gets it wrong. These are just a few hints that we use often.

Variables

If your example contains a placeholder value that's subject to change, use the format <[A-Z_]+> for the placeholder value: <MY_VARIABLE>

export name=<MY_NAME>

This syntax is reserved for variable names, and will cause the variable to be rendered in a special color and font style.

incoming := map[string]interface{}{
    "asdf": 1,
    "qwer": []interface{}{},
    "zxcv": []interface{}{
        map[string]interface{}{},
        true,
        int(1e9),
        "tyui",
    },
}

```go {hl_lines=[7,8]}
incoming := map[string]interface{}{
    "asdf": 1,
    "qwer": []interface{}{},
    "zxcv": []interface{}{

Bash

Use the bash language code block when you want to show a Bash script:

#!/usr/bin/bash
echo "deb https://packages.docker.com/1.12/apt/repo ubuntu-trusty main" | sudo tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/docker.list

If you want to show an interactive shell, use console instead. In cases where you use console, make sure to add a dollar character for the user sign:

$ echo "deb https://packages.docker.com/1.12/apt/repo ubuntu-trusty main" | sudo tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/docker.list

Go

incoming := map[string]interface{}{
    "asdf": 1,
    "qwer": []interface{}{},
    "zxcv": []interface{}{
        map[string]interface{}{},
        true,
        int(1e9),
        "tyui",
    },
}

If you want to include a triple-fenced code block inside your code block, you can wrap your block in a quadruple-fenced code block:

````markdown

```go
log.Println("did something")
