Is this plugin must be registered globally?

i read the docs for vue2, and can’t find the locally regisered example, only the globally registered example. so i try it out, and failed. So is this plugin can only be registered globablly, or am i miss something?

i read the issue #1 , it seems related, but i’m using one single version of highlightjs 10.7.2, so i’m not quite clear whether or not this plugin supports locally register.

thanks.

GOOD version (Globally registered）:

<template>
  <div>
    <highlightjs language="javascript" code="var x = 5;" />
  </div>
</template>

<script>
import Vue from 'vue'
import hljs from 'highlight.js/lib/core'
import javascript from 'highlight.js/lib/languages/javascript'
import 'highlight.js/styles/a11y-dark.css'

import hljsVuePlugin from '@highlightjs/vue-plugin'

hljs.registerLanguage('javascript', javascript)
Vue.use(hljsVuePlugin)
export default {
  components: {}
}
</script>

BAD version (Registered in single file component）:

<template>
  <div>
    <highlightjs language="javascript" code="var x = 5;" />
  </div>
</template>

<script>
import Vue from 'vue'
import hljs from 'highlight.js/lib/core'
import javascript from 'highlight.js/lib/languages/javascript'
import 'highlight.js/styles/a11y-dark.css'

import hljsVuePlugin from '@highlightjs/vue-plugin'

hljs.registerLanguage('javascript', javascript)
// Vue.use(hljsVuePlugin)
export default {
  components: { hljsVuePlugin }
}
</script>

errors in chrome console:

vue.runtime.esm.js?2b0e:619 [Vue warn]: Unknown custom element: <highlightjs> - did you register the component correctly? For recursive components, make sure to provide the "name" option.

if i give a name，the error message change, but still cannot render the ‘var x = 5’

export default {
  components: { 'highlightjs': hljsVuePlugin }
}

The vue2 version exports component also, though Vue 3 version does not. Perhaps that would work?

export default {
  components: { 'highlightjs': hljsVuePlugin.component }
}

Would mind resolving maybe? 🙃
