ManiaScript.tmLanguage

Native TextMate Language Grammar File

Why?

This is the grammar resource for ManiaScript. It's purpose is to be the single source of truth for the grammar files, so that text/code editors may use the same .tmLanguage files.

How to use

The final .tmLanguage file is not in source control, instead it is built from the src path.

Usage

git clone https://github.com/MattMcFarland/ManiaScript.tmLanguage
cd ManiaScript.tmLanguage
npm install
npm run build

Once you build the scripts, you can access it in the build path, then you may export that to your plugin. I recommend using this as a dependency, instead of manually copying it over. However, it depends on the IDE you are supporting.

Usage with a NodeJS editor

Editors like Atom and VS Code for example use the NodeJS runtime, so you can simply do this as part of your publish script

const tmLanguage = require('maniascript-tmlanguage')
 
// write to xml
fs.writeFileSync('ManiaScript.tmLanguage', tmLanguage.plist);
 
// write to yaml
fs.writeFileSync('ManiaScript.YAML-tmLanguage', tmLanguage.yaml);
 
// write to json
fs.writeFileSync('ManiaScript.JSON-tmLanguage', tmLanguage.json);
