  • interpolated (boolean): if the Lexer is created as a child lexer for inline tag interpolation (e.g. #[p Hello]). Defaults to false.
  • startingLine (integer): the real line number of the first line in the input. It is also used for inline tag interpolation. Defaults to 1.
  • plugins (array): An array of plugins, in the order they should be applied.
