tmtheme-to-json

Converts a .tmTheme file into an equivalent JSON representation to be used with Visual Studio Code.

If all you want is to use a theme with VS Code, you don't need to convert it. VS Code can consume .tmTheme files directly, although you may find it easier to edit your theme in JSON format.

All optional and custom properties are preserved during conversion. The theme is not validated by the tool. Please check the theme file if it doesn't function as expected.

Installation

npm install -g tmtheme-to-json

Usage on the command line

tmtheme-to-json my.tmTheme

This will create my.tmTheme.json in the same directory.

You can even specify multiple input files (globs are not supported on Windows).

Usage in code

var fs = require('fs')
var convertTheme = require('tmtheme-to-json').convertTheme
 
var theme = convertTheme(fs.readFileSync('my.tmTheme', 'utf-8'))
fs.writeFileSync('my.tmTheme.json', JSON.stringify(theme, null, 2))
