This bundle is meant to be used for editing LiveCode script only stacks. It sends an update notification over a datagram connection to LiveCode each time you save a livecodescript file in TextMate using the appropriate key equivalent ⌃⌘S. Use a stack in LiveCode accepting datagram connections to be notified about script updates or use the Levure Application Framework, see note below.
- Script error checking ("linting"), key equivalent is ⌃⇧V
- Update notification
- Collapsing Text Blocks (Foldings)
- Handler Pop-up
- Code Completion
- Snippets with Tab Stops and Placeholders
- TextMate Commands using the server engine (your PATH variable needs to include the path to the LiveCode server directory)
- Indentation
- Paired Characters
- LiveCode Server version ≥ 6.6.0 (Install it somewhere appropriate.)
- Download the zip from GitHub, unzip it
- Change the file name from "LiveCode.tmbundle-master" to "LiveCode.tmbundle"
- You can install the bundle by placing it in ~/Library/Application Support/TextMate/Bundles/. The ~ character in this path refers to your home directory.
- To use LiveCode specific TextMate commands and to enable linting add the
server directory to the PATH variable in TextMate settings like:
Variable Name:
PATH
Value:
$PATH:/opt/local/bin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/texbin:/Library/WebServer/CGI-Executables/LiveCodeServer
Adjust the path to your needs.
Add a variable "TM_livecode_explicit_vars" to TextMate settings and set it to "true" or "false".
Please rename your server engine to: livecode-server, even if you use the pro version.
As a start choose "LiveCode" or "LiveCodeDark" from View > Theme and "LiveCode Server" from the language pop-up in TextMate. See what happens if you type "com" ( write a LiveCode handler) and hit tab consecutively.
Note: If you use the Levure Application Framework, for update notifications to work you need to replace the Levure script "external_editor_server.livecodescript" in levure/utils/external_editor_server/ of your Levure project with the one included in the bundle.
Replace the appropriate file in ~/Library/Application Support/TextMate/Bundles/ with the downloaded LiceCode.tmbundle file.
Use the key equivalent ⌃⇧V for script error checking.
Note: The linter code adapted to TextMate was taken from the LiveCode language package for Atom.
