A Sublime Text 3 plugin for interacting with the pepper-autocomplete service.
This plugin is in development state, which means is unstable, and it might not work in your system. It should work with Google Chrome and Chromium Browser versions 31 to 34, and modern versions of Firefox, on modern versions of Linux, MacOSX and Windows, but it has only been tested so far with:
- Ubuntu Linux 13.10 x86 + ST3 (3059) + Chrome 31
- Windows 8 x64 + ST3 (3047) + Chrome 32
Current iterations are constantly changing the names, key bindings, and semantics of most commands, so every time you upgrade, something will likely not work the way it used to. Sorry for the inconvenience, I'm working as hard as possible to get a stable version out, but it will take me some time...
This plugin fires up a browser (Chrome and Firefox only, for now), and keeps a connection open with it, that allows you to send commands and control to the browser from within ST3.
The recommended method is using Sublime Package Control. If you don't know it, go check it out.
You can also clone directly from Github, or download a zip, and unpack it in your Sublime Text 3 packages folder. If you don't know how to do this, you definitely need the Package Control plugin.
Besides that, you need a recent version of Chrome (31 to 34) and the Chrome WebDriver executable. Upon installation of the plugin, it will attempt to download the right executable for your platform (its about 5~10 MBs) directly from sublime.apiad.net and place it in the same folder as the plugin (this only has to be done once). If this doesn't work, you can try to download it manually, rename it to chromedriver, place it alongside the *.sublime-package file (it should be in the root of either your Packages/ folder or your Installed Packages/ folder), and give it execution permissions. If this happens to you, please consider filling up the corresponding issue to help me improve the plugin.
Hit ctrl+0 to start up the browser service.
Hit ctrl+1 for autocomplete-tabe like completions.
