Where is support for hljs lang-restApi coming from?

[mikernet]

We have a custom v2 theme that is not doing code highlighting for REST API code blocks that have class="lang-restApi hljs" and I can't for the life of me find where support for lang-restApi is coming from in the default theme nor can I find anything online about a highlight.js REST API language I can plug in. When using my theme I get:

Where is that language support coming from so I can include it in my theme?

Try HTTP, with REST API it is either HTTP or JSON.

On the demo site https://highlightjs.org/static/demo/, select the web or protocols in the Language Categories.

Is there a site demonstrating that highlighting of lang-restApi even works with the default theme/template?

See this sample: http://docascode.github.io/docfx-seed/restapi/petstore.html
Select the REST API, you can view the source codes.

@paulushub I know that's the part that makes it output class="lang-restApi hljs", the issue is how is that getting highlighting instead of the error in the OP?

I do not see any syntax highlighting with the sample site I posted. If you build that sample yourself, and edit the _site/restapi/petstore.html to replace lang-restApi with lang-http you will see the difference.

http://docascode.github.io/docfx-seed/restapi/petstore.html#petstore_swagger_io_v2_Swagger_Petstore_1_0_0_deletePet includes <code class="lang-restApi hljs">DELETE /pet/{petId}</code> but I don't see any highlighting for that.

The Pet Store page loaded a docfx.vendor.json file that mentions "highlight.js v9.12.0". The "Could not find the language" message was added with highlightjs/highlight.js#2236 in highlight.js 9.17.0, which would explain why no warning is logged.

Oh, I see...I have no idea what the issue submitted to my theme repo was talking about then, haha. I think we can mark this as resolved for now, Sorry for the confusion on my part.
