Sphinx: Linking a Lexer with a style sheet using pygments

Question

Good evening,

Lets say I am using the built java lexer in pygments to highlight the syntax of a code block in a sphinx document. How do I change the style sheet that the java lexer is associated with. (i.e. I want to change the color of the words that are being highlighted).

Thanks in advance!

Answer 1

Just point pygments_style setting to your custom pygments style class. Also see how to write a custom pygments style class.

Should work in theory - haven't tried it by myself though.

Hope that helps.
