When using PyQ with python in jupyter notebook, all cells use syntax highlighting of Python by default. This makes q code written in cells starting with %%q very confusing (suppose you use ' somewhere, and all code following it is highlighted as string in python). Hence, I wonder if someone knows some way to use q syntax highlighting in cells starting with %%q.
I find a similar question on stackoverflow. There is an answer about SQL. They say adding the following code in ~/.jupyter/custom/custom.js to use SQL syntax highlighting in cells starting with %%sql.
require(['notebook/js/codecell'], function(codecell) {
codecell.CodeCell.options_default.highlight_modes['magic_text/x-mssql'] = {'reg':[/^%%sql/]} ;
Jupyter.notebook.events.one('kernel_ready.Kernel', function(){
Jupyter.notebook.get_cells().map(function(cell){
if (cell.cell_type == 'code'){ cell.auto_highlight(); } }) ;
});
});Yet, I am not sure how to modify the code in the answer so it recognizes q, particularly what the highlight_modes should be used.
