Fix missing newline after YAML block-scalar indicator in Bloblang highlighting#419JakeSCahill wants to merge 3 commits into

extractBloblangFromBlock() trims a mapping/mutation/etc. token's raw text
before tokenizing it as Bloblang, which strips the newline + indentation
that visually separates the YAML block-scalar indicator (| or >) from the
first line of content. processMultilineMapping() then discards the
token's original content entirely (token.innerHTML = '') and replaces it
with only the tokenized (already-trimmed) Bloblang, so that leading
newline never makes it back into the rendered output — collapsing
"mapping: |" and the first line of code onto one visual line, e.g.:
mapping: |let jokes = [
instead of:
mapping: |
let jokes = [
Fix: capture the leading newline+indentation from the raw token text
before it gets trimmed, and prepend it (HTML-escaped) to the wrapper's
innerHTML alongside the tokenized Bloblang content, so the original line
break survives.
Verified against the real production code path (prism-core.js +
prism-bloblang.js + this file, unmodified) in a real headless Chrome
instance via Puppeteer: reproduced the exact bug from a real page
(docs.redpanda.com's Connect quickstart), confirmed the fix restores the
newline in both textContent and the rendered screenshot, using the same
mapping: | example currently live on that page.
Fixes a bug reported against docs.redpanda.com/cloud-data-platform (the
example YAML rendering as `mapping: |let jokes = [` on one line) - not a
docs-content bug, since the source YAML has always had the correct line
break; this highlighting extension was the one dropping it.

Estimated code review effort: 1 (Trivial) | ~2 minutes Mergeability Score: 🔵 Low · up to The change restores the missing line break for Bloblang YAML block scalars, but block scalars containing multiple leading blank lines can still lose some formatting.

Uses the exact producer-pipeline example from the Connect quickstart that was reported broken, so a future regression in processMultilineMapping()'s leading-whitespace preservation shows up immediately when previewing this page - mapping: | must stay on its own line, not collapse onto the same line as the first Bloblang statement.

Summary
Fixes a rendering bug reported against docs.redpanda.com/cloud-data-platform (DOC-2433): the Connect quickstart's producer-pipeline YAML example renders as
mapping: |let jokes = [on one line instead of:https://deploy-preview-419--docs-ui.netlify.app/bloblang-syntax-test#_regression_block_scalar_indicator_must_stay_on_its_own_line
Not a docs-content bug — the source YAML has always had the correct line break (confirmed via git history on the docs source repo). This highlighting extension is what's dropping it.
Root cause
extractBloblangFromBlock()insrc/js/17-bloblang-yaml.jstrims amapping/mutation/etc. token's raw text before tokenizing it as Bloblang, which strips the newline + indentation separating the YAML block-scalar indicator (|/>) from the first line of content.processMultilineMapping()then replaces the token's entire original content (token.innerHTML = '') with only the tokenized (already-trimmed) Bloblang — so that leading newline is gone from the rendered output, not just from the tokenizer's input.This is systemic, not a one-off: it affects every
mapping: |(ormutation/request_map/etc.) block containing Bloblang, anywhere on the site.Fix
