BBEdit package for Go development
BBEdit package for Go development
This project is no longer necessary. BBEdit now has full support for Language Server Protocol (LSP) which eliminates the need for custom syntax module. I no longer use this package. See Bare Bones support page for LSP for instructions on how to install Go's LSP server.
Features
- Full language syntax highlighting
- Support for code folding
func - Language defaults
- Full set of clippings
- Go tool scripts
- Completion data for Go standard library
The package is a collection of BBEdit supporting elements for developing Go applications. The Resources directory contains the toolset for supporting the scripting and integration.
Requirements
The following are required for using Go.bbpackage:
- BBEdit 12.0 or greater
- Go 1.8 or greater
- Xcode 6 or greater (particularly the command line tools package)
Install
Download the latest release and install with BBEdit.
Build
The package should be cloned into a working directory. The Makefile will build the sources. The install task will install the package to the correct Application Support directory (either Dropbox, iCloud Drive, or ~/Library).
git clone https://github.com/ascarter/Go-bbpackage.git
cd Go-bbpackage
make install
To update, pull changes and run make install again:
cd Go-bbpackage
git pull
make clean install
Usage
The best way to use BBEdit with a Go project is to simply launch BBEdit from the project root.
cd ~/Projects/workspace/src/github.com/<username>/<my cool project>
bbedit .
Go version update
For new versions of Go, the package should generally work. The standard library tags can be updated by using the script stdlib/Update ctags
