#+TITLE: Yet another snippet extension #+TITLE: Yet another snippet extension
* Quick start The YASnippet documentation has been split into separate parts:
*YASnippet* is a template system for Emacs. It allows you to type an 0. [[https://github.com/capitaomorte/yasnippet/blob/master/README.mdown][README]]
abbreviation and automatically expand it into function templates. Bundled
language templates includes: C, C++, C#, Perl, Python, Ruby, SQL, LaTeX, HTML,
CSS and more. The snippet syntax is inspired from TextMate's syntax, you can
even [[#import-textmate][import most TextMate snippets]]
YASnippet is an original creation of [[http://pluskid.lifegoo.org][pluskid]] who also wrote its predecessor Contains an introduction, installation instructions and other important
[[http://code.google.com/p/smart-snippet][smart-snippet]]. notes.
** Watch a demo
On [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZCGmZK4V7Sg][youtube]].
** Installation
Clone this repository somewhere
#+begin_example
$ cd ~/.emacs.d/plugins
$ git clone https://github.com/capitaomorte/yasnippet
#+end_example
Add the following in your =.emacs= file:
#+begin_src emacs-lisp :exports code
(add-to-list 'load-path
"~/.emacs.d/plugins/yasnippet")
(require 'yasnippet)
(yas-global-mode 1)
#+end_src
Add your own snippets to =~/.emacs.d/snippets= by placing files there or
invoking [[sym:yas-new-snippet][=yas-new-snippet=]].
** Import textmate snippets (rails example)
:PROPERTIES:
:CUSTOM_ID: import-textmate
:END:
YASnippet lets you use TextMate bundles directly:
#+begin_example
$ cd ~/.emacs.d/plugins
$ git clone https://github.com/capitaomorte/yasnippet
$ cd yasnippet
$ git submodule init
$ git submodule update
$ gem install plist trollop
$ rake convert_bundles # will convert ruby, rails and html bundles from drnic
#+end_example
Then, in your =.emacs= file
#+begin_example
(add-to-list 'load-path
"~/.emacs.d/plugins/yasnippet")
(require 'yasnippet)
(setq yas-snippet-dirs '("~/.emacs.d/snippets" "~/.emacs.d/extras/imported"))
(yas-global-mode 1)
#+end_example
Open some rails file (model, app, etc) and start using the textmate
snippets. Consider that this is a work-in-progress and many snippets/commands
might not work. Patches welcome!
** Contributing snippets
Please *do not ask me* to add snippets to the default collection under
=/snippets=. This collection is considered frozen. By customizing
[[sym:yas-snippet-dirs][=yas-snippet-dirs=]] you can point yasnippet to good
snippet collections out there.
The =extras/textmate-import.rb= tool can import many actual Textmate
snippets. I'm focusing on developing it and the accompanying =yas-setup.el=
files that guide it with more difficult importations. The idea is to deprecate
=/snippets= and replace it with =extras/imported=.
