## Plus package

In version >= 4, a new sub-package were added with the following features:
This package contains the following features:

- Highlight gists using gists API
- Highlight code directly from URL

### Usage

```typescript
import { HighlightPlusModule } from 'ngx-highlightjs/plus';
The plus package relies on `HttpClient` to make the http requests, ensure that it is imported in your `main.ts` file

@NgModule({
imports: [
HighlightPlusModule
```ts
import { provideHttpClient } from '@angular/common/http';

bootstrapApplication(AppComponent, {
providers: [
provideHttpClient(),
{
provide: HIGHLIGHT_OPTIONS,
useValue: // ...
}
]
})

### Providing Gist API secret (Optional)

To take full advantage of the gist loader feature, the package provides `GIST_OPTIONS` token to set your `clientId`
and `clientSecret` with the gist http requests, you can provide it in `main.ts` like in this example:

```typescript
import { GIST_OPTIONS } from 'ngx-highlightjs/plus'

bootstrapApplication(AppComponent, {
providers: [
provideHttpClient(),
{
provide: HIGHLIGHT_OPTIONS,
useValue: // ...
},
{
provide: GIST_OPTIONS,
useValue: {
clientId: 'CLIENT_ID',
clientSecret: 'CLIENT_SECRET'
}
},
]
})
```
