Package Exports
- vscode-textmate
This package does not declare an exports field, so the exports above have been automatically detected and optimized by JSPM instead. If any package subpath is missing, it is recommended to post an issue to the original package (vscode-textmate) to support the "exports" field. If that is not possible, create a JSPM override to customize the exports field for this package.
Readme
VSCode TextMate
An interpreter for grammar files as defined by TextMate. Supports loading grammar files from JSON or PLIST format. Grammar injection is currently not supported.
Installing
npm install vscode-textmate
Using
var Registry = require('vscode-textmate').Registry;
var registry = new Registry();
var grammar = registry.loadGrammarFromPathSync('./javascript.tmbundle/Syntaxes/JavaScript.plist');
var lineTokens = grammar.tokenizeLine('function add(a,b) { return a+b; }');
for (var i = 0; i < lineTokens.tokens.length; i++) {
var token = lineTokens.tokens[i];
console.log('Token from ' + token.startIndex + ' to ' + token.endIndex + ' with scopes ' + token.scopes);
}
Using asynchronously
Sometimes, it is necessary to manage the list of known grammars outside of vscode-textmate
. The sample below shows how this works:
var Registry = require('vscode-textmate').Registry;
var registry = new Registry({
getFilePath: function (scopeName) {
// Return here the path to the grammar file for `scopeName`
if (scopeName === 'source.js') {
return './javascript.tmbundle/Syntaxes/JavaScript.plist';
}
return null;
}
});
// Load the JavaScript grammar and any other grammars included by it async.
registry.loadGrammar('source.js', function(err, grammar) {
if (err) {
console.error(err);
return;
}
// at this point `grammar` is available...
});
Tokenizing multiple lines
To tokenize multiple lines, you must pass in the previous returned ruleStack
.
var ruleStack = null;
for (var i = 0; i < lines.length; i++) {
var r = grammar.tokenizeLine(lines[i], ruleStack);
console.log('Line: #' + i + ', tokens: ' + r.tokens);
ruleStack = r.ruleStack;
}
