How to automatically open Sublimetext with a file, a project or the current
|
|
directory according to the context.
|
|
---
|
|
|
|
I usually start Sublime Text 2 from the command line to work, depending
|
|
on the case, on the content of a directory or on a project (materialized
|
|
with a `*.sublime-project` file).
|
|
|
|
It ends up with one of the following commands :
|
|
|
|
- `subl .`
|
|
- `subl my-project.sublime-project`
|
|
|
|
Here is the snippet I added to my `.bashrc` file to have the `subl`
|
|
command automatically "guess" what I want. It does the following:
|
|
|
|
- If a path is given (`subl "my/file.txt"`), it opens the file.
|
|
- If nothing is given and a `.sublime-project` file exists in the current
|
|
directory, it opens it
|
|
- If nothing is given and no `.sublime-project` file has been found, it
|
|
opens the folder.
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
function project_aware_subl {
|
|
project_file=$(ls *.sublime-project 2>/dev/null | head -n 1)
|
|
subl ${*:-${project_file:-.}}
|
|
}
|
|
alias subl="project_aware_subl"
|
|
```
