This is the top link in google search, so ill add this for anyone else looking for it.

        import mistune
	from pygments import highlight
	from pygments.lexers import get_lexer_by_name
	from pygments.formatters import html

	class HighlightRenderer(mistune.Renderer):
	    def block_code(self, code, lang):
	        if not lang:
	            return '\n<pre><code>%s</code></pre>\n' % \
	                mistune.escape(code)
	        lexer = get_lexer_by_name(lang, stripall=True)
	        formatter = html.HtmlFormatter(lineseparator="<br>")
	        return highlight(code, lexer, formatter)

	renderer = HighlightRenderer()
	markdown = mistune.Markdown(renderer=renderer)
	output_html = markdown(content_document)
	print(output_html)
