This package is not available on Package Control. To use it, follow the steps given below.
- Copy the github url (without the
.gitat the end). - Select
Package Control: Add Repositoryand paste the copied github url into the input panel and press enter. - Now use
Package Control: Install Packageand search forBetterEdgeand install it.
By default, this package supports the following Edge extensions: .edge, html.edge, htm.edge.
Since a user can have more than one templating language package installed, this package doesn't support .html directly. To get highlighting for .html files with Edge code and all the other features this package provides, you can follow any of the two approaches given below
-
Go to the bottom right status bar item that displays information on current syntax and click on that when the currently open file is any
.htmlfile. From there go toOpen all with current extensions as ...and scroll to selectEdge. You should now be good to go. -
When the currently open file has any of the aforementioned file extensions, from the main menu, go to
Preferences -> Settings -- Syntax Specific. This should open a 2 column new window, with the default settings on the right and a user settings on the left. In the user settings, add the following, save & close.
{
"extensions": [
".html"
]
}- The key bindings are configured so that pressing shift + { twice will automatically add spaces on both sides for the inner brace expression block & place the cursor in the center, like so
{{ | }}. - You can use ctrl + / for inserting Edge style comments (
{{-- This is a comment --}})
If you already have these in your user settings, then just copy the Twig related portions into them.
BetterEdge only adds basic snippets for common code blocks. If you want more snippets, then please follow the official documentation on
snippets and create your own.
If you want to ignore the snippets that are provided by default, you can use the ignored_snippets setting.
"ignored_snippets": ["BetterEdge/*"]
