ConTeXt support for Atom

ConTeXt support for Atom

[Henning Hraban Ramm]

Hi,
is someone beside me using the Atom IDE?
Then have a look at my enhanced syntax highlighter:
https://github.com/fiee/language-context

It’s still work in progress, but I use it every day.

It’s a fork of the outdated package of the same name, not yet available via the usual channels, but since upstream didn’t react to my pull requests, maybe I’ll publish it under a different name.

Isn't that the same basic editor as vscode? If so, the context 
distribution contains grammars that you can look at.

The framework is the same, but the editor component is completely different, and so is the package/plugin setup.

I tried vscodium only shortly, it might become a perspective, but I’m used to and generally satisfied with Atom.

Your setup looks much more extensive than mine. I just converted the ConTeXt interface xml into Atom cson snippets and added links to the command reference in the wiki, also a few comments (that should better go into the xmls…).
The description at the repository is still from the predecessor, I need to change that.
So there’s no run command or something like Atom-LaTeX (that runs latexmk, includes a PDF viewer and interprets the log – I enjoy that when working with LaTeX, so I don’t need to use TeXstudio or the like). Atom’s git interface is more important for me than perfect TeX support.

what are the key shortcuts to compile the context file at hand?
i try the atom editor on Linux platform.
Can't find the way to feed the tex file into context luatex...

There are no key shortcuts. I use a terminal.
As I wrote:

"language-" packages in Atom are usually only syntax highlighting/completion.

I was thinking about adapting Atom-LaTeX, but it’s probably not worth the effort.

Best, Hraban

ConTeXt support for Atom or other text editors

[Sébastien Wilmet]

Hi,

To have command completion, there is this project that can be used with
various text editors or IDEs that support the language server protocol:
https://github.com/astoff/digestif

I suppose that Atom supports the language server protocol. Digestif has
support for ConTeXt too, not just LaTeX.

With Atom is there spell-checking? Without marking TeX/ConTeXt commands
as misspelled?

-----

I'm actually looking for a text editor on Linux that supports those
three features:
- syntax highlighting
- command completion
- spell-checking

Does it exist? The following wiki page doesn't list spell-checking, and
doesn't list command completion separately from syntax highlighting:
https://wiki.contextgarden.net/Text_Editors

I'm learning a little ConTeXt and I have some struggle to find a text
editor.

Thanks,
Sébastien

Well, Vim has pretty solid support for ConTeXt (disclaimer: I am
maintaining the ConTeXt plugin distributed with Vim), including the
features you mention and much more:

    https://wiki.contextgarden.net/Vim

But if you have never used Vim, it has a steeper learning curve that
a typical text editor.

On a side note: a difficulty with maintaining syntax highlighting for
ConTeXt is that I had to write my own script to extract ConTeXt-specific
and MetaFun-specific keywords from source code. Is there any way to do
it with ConTeXt?

Nicola

there are ways to extract it from the interface specifications ... which 
is done for scite, vscode, ...

(btw, in scite/textadept there is support for syntax support, real time 
spell checking, nested lexing, etc)

I already know Vim, but nowadays I prefer an application that I can just
launch and it just works, out of the box. With Vim I need to read the
docs of plugins, configure the plugins, remember what are the keyboard
shortcuts for spell-checking, etc. I should maybe try GVim instead of
using Vim in a terminal. Or Neovim.

I've tried to install scite and textadept, but on Linux it's a bit
difficult with Scintillua. And I'm not sure that command completion is
supported.

BTW I'm the author of GNOME LaTeX ;-)
https://wiki.gnome.org/Apps/GNOME-LaTeX
(this text editor supports only LaTeX, unfortunalety). If I have the
time I would like to implement a new text editor specialized for TeX and
ConTeXt.
