YASnippet is a re-design and re-write of my original extension +

Yasnippet is a template system for emacs. It allows you to type a +abbrevation and automatically expand the abbreviation into function +templates.

+

Bundled language templates includes: C, C++, C#, Perl, Python, Ruby, +SQL, LaTeX, HTML, CSS and more.

+

Yasnippet system is inspired from TextMate's template system. You can +use a tool to import any TextMate template you have to Yasnippet. It +is a re-design and re-write of my original extension smart-snippet. It is much cleaner and more powerful than smart-snippet.

    +

    Brief Install Instruction

    +

    There are two archives of YASnippet. One is a single file compiled +“bundle”, and the other is normal. If all you need is to use the +builtin templates, download the bundle one. If you want to add your +own templates, download the normal one.

    +
    +

    Bundle Install

    +
      +
    • Download the latest yasnippet-bundle-x.y.z.el.tgz and unpack it.
      • +
    • Open the file, and type Alt+x eval-buffer.
      • +
    +

    That's it. Now open any one of your language file, you'll see a menu +YASnippet. you can pull the menu to insert a template. Or, you can +type the pre-defined abbrev and press TAB to expand it.

    +

    To have emacs load YASnippet automatically when it starts, put the +following in your .emacs file:

    +
    (add-to-list 'load-path
-              "~/emacs/plugins")
+              "/path/to/dir/containing/bundle/file")
 (require 'yasnippet-bundle)
    -
    5. -

-
-

For you

    -

    -
    2. -

  2. Unpack it to a directory and add that directory to your -load-path.

    -
    3. -

  3. Add the following code to your ~/.emacs file:

    +
    +

    Normal Install

    +

    For full install of the normal archive, just download and unpack the +latest yasnippet-x.y.z.tar.bz2, put it in your load-path and +add the following in your .emacs file:

    +
    (require 'yasnippet) ;; not yasnippet-bundle
 (yas/initialize)
 (yas/load-directory "/path/to/the/snippets/directory/")

  4. You can inspect into the snippets directory for adding your own -snippets.

    -
    5. -

  5. Detailed document can be found at the doc directory.

For geeks

-

If you want to always follow the latest code. You can check out it -from the svn repository:

-
svn checkout http://yasnippet.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/ yasnippet
-
-

However, I try to release a new version as soon as I made some changes -that will affect the normal use or added some new features. So there's -usually no need to follow the svn repository. Except that you might -find svn up is more convenient than downloading and unpacking the -release package. :D

Please refer to the documentation for full customization.

How to contribute ?

Issues

-

If you find a bug you can create a new issue at the issue list. Please describe -the problem as clear as possible.

-
-
-

Suggestion, Feature Request

-

There's a discussion group for both smart-snippet and yasnippet. If -you have any suggesion, you can post to there and discuss with other -members.

-

Especially, there's a wish list wiki page. I'll collect ideas from -the discussion group to the wish list. So you might want to look -at the wish list before you post something.

-
-
-

Snippets

-

YASnippet comes with some default snippet definitions. However, they -are far from complete. So I'm calling users to share their -snippets. If you have some good snippet definitions, you can post them -to the discussion group. You can specify the contributor -property of the snippet like:

-
#contributor : pluskid <pluskid@gmail.com>
-#name : __...__
-# --
-__${init}__
-
-

I'll incorporate (some of) them in the release if suitable. However, -if you have many snippets (especially when they need to be -maintained and updated constantly), it is not suitable to put them in -the YASnippet release package. A better way is to make your snippets -publicly available and tell me the URL. I'll try to keep a list of -them on the wiki page.
