This is how you have to import lowlight v2.x:

import { lowlight } from "lowlight";

Here is the updated codesandbox: https://codesandbox.io/s/trusting-lake-22hls

@cadars Any thoughts on why does the sandbox show Module '"lowlight"' has no exported member 'lowlight'.

[cadars]

Not really, but it looks like the error (hint?) disappears when importing this way instead:

import { lowlight } from "lowlight/lib/all.js";

Personally I only import the most common languages:

import { lowlight } from "lowlight/lib/common.js";

[aquibbaig]

I think the solution to this problem is to register languages by installing highlight.js first.

@cadars I think that solves it, thanks!

i just ran into a similar problem. lowlight languages didn't show up in my "electron" build. (without any error messages and it did work in the test environment)

so i used @cadars way to import lowlight import { lowlight } from "lowlight/lib/common.js"; and it worked. thx!

Looking into the usage, there doesn't seem to be any compelling reason not to upgrade. This is an inconvenience for users to be sure in both extra code to override the lowlight version and in bundling to assert that only one version is packaged. For a light lift like this, could the maintainers comment on what is holding this upgrade up?

@cadars Any thoughts on why does the sandbox show Module '"lowlight"' has no exported member 'lowlight'.

It's because its using an outdated type-declaration from @types/lowlight instead of from lowlight itself (lowlight declares its own types).

Currently @types/lowlight is required by @tiptap/extension-code-block-lowlight package, and definitely needs to be removed from the extension's dependency, else it can't be uninstalled.
