Python String Highlighter for HTML, SQL

Highlight HTML, SQL in Python Strings for VSCode, Codium.

Github: https://github.com/gnat/vscode-python-highlight-html-sql

Embed HTML. Kinda like:

• PHP.
• Python Server Pages (PSP)
• PyCharm SQL highlighting

Pairs well with:

• Darkstar: https://github.com/lllama/dark-star
• Raw strings for Jinja.

Special thanks to:

• Textmate for the regexes: https://github.com/textmate
• Original idea improved upon: https://github.com/ptweir/python-string-sql

Alternative for Sublime Text

• https://github.com/gnat/sublime-python-html/

Compliments well with Highlight:

• Highlight multiline language blocks (Similar to Sublime or TextMate, but not quite as good due to limitations in VSCode).
