Supports + snippets/* +- [github.com/Shougo/neosnippet](https://github.com/Shougo/neosnippet.vim): + VimL, supports snippets/* with some configuration. +- [github.com/drmingdrmer/xptemplate](https://github.com/drmingdrmer/xptemplate): + Totally different syntax, does not read snippets contained in this file, but + it is also very powerful. It does not support vim-snippets (just listing it + here for completeness) + +There tries to be a more comprehensive list (which still is incomplete) here: +http://vim-wiki.mawercer.de/wiki/topic/text-snippets-skeletons-templates.html + +UltiSnips has additional features such as high speed, nesting snippets, +expanding snippets in snippets and offers powerful transformations on text in +snippets (like visual selections or placeholder texts). + +Which one to use? If you have python give +[SirVer/ultisnips](https://github.com/SirVer/ultisnips) a try because its fast +and has the most features. + +If you have VimL only (vim without python support) your best option is using +[garbas/vim-snipmate](https://github.com/garbas/vim-snipmate) and cope with the +minor bugs found in the engine. + +Q: Should "snipMate be deprecated in favour of UltiSnips"? + +A: No, because snipMate is VimL, and UltiSnips requires Python. +Some people want to use snippets without having to install Vim with Python +support. Yes - this sucks. + +One solution would be: Use snippets if they are good enough, but allow overriding them +in UltiSnips. This would avoid most duplication while still serving most users. +AFAIK there is a nested-placeholder branch for snipMate too. snipMate is still +improved by Adnan Zafar. So maybe time is not ready to make a final decision yet. + +[github issue/discussion](https://github.com/honza/vim-snippets/issues/363) + +Vendor Snippets +--------------- + +Additional library and framework snippets are available for UltiSnips users in +the `UltiSnips/` directory. These files are removed from the default language +namespaces to prevent them from all being loaded automatically. If there is a +separate library, framework, or package you would like to support open a pull +request! + +Additional snippets can be added to the current buffer with the +`:UltiSnipsAddFiletypes` command followed by the snippet name without the +"snippets" ending. For example, to add the JavaScript Jasmine snippets, run: +`:UltiSnipsAddFiletypes javascript-jasmine`. To have this snippet loaded +everytime a JavaScript file is opened or created you can add the command to your + -`.vim/ftplugin/javascript.vim` file. Another way is to add + `autocmd FileType js UltiSnipsAddFiletypes javascript-jasmine` in your `.vimrc`. + + +For more see the UltiSnips docs (`:help UltiSnips`). + +Installation +------------ + +First be aware that there are many options, see "Snippet engines" above. +Second be aware than there are [tons of plugin managers](http://vim-wiki.mawercer.de/wiki/topic/vim%20plugin%20managment.html) +which is why Marc Weber thinks that it doesn't make sense to repeat the same +repetitive information everywhere. + +*Recommended way:* +[vim-addon-manager](https://github.com/MarcWeber/vim-addon-manager) (because Marc Weber wrote it for exactly +this reason, it supports simple dependency management). E.g. you're done by this +line in your `.vimrc`: + +```vim +" assuming you want to use snipmate snippet engine +ActivateAddons vim-snippets snipmate +``` + +[vim-pi](https://bitbucket.org/vimcommunity/vim-pi/issue/90/we-really-need-a-web-interface) +Is the place to discuss plugin managers and repository resources. + +About how to install snipMate see [snipmate@garbas](https://github.com/garbas/vim-snipmate) + +(Bundle, Pathogen, git clone - keywords to make people find this link by ctrl-f search) +I know that I should be reading the docs of the snippet engine, just let me copy paste into my `.vimrc`: +[See this pull request](https://github.com/honza/vim-snippets/pull/307/files). + +TROUBLE +======= + +If you still have trouble getting this to work create a GitHub ticket, ask on +IRC or the mailing list. + +Policies / for contributors +--------------------------- + +Some snippets are useful for almost all languages, so let's try to have the same +triggers for them: + +``` +if : if without else +ife: if $1 else $2 +eif : else if ($1) { .. } +el : else .. +wh : while (cond) ... +``` + +Don't add useless placeholder default texts like: + +``` +if (${1:condition}){ + ${2:some code here} +} +``` +instead use: + +``` +if (${1}){ + ${2} +} +``` + +Exception: Functions which are used less often, such as Vim's `matchall()`, `matchstr()` +functions which case hints may be helpful to remember order. In the VimL case +get vim-dev plugin which has function completion + +Thus for conditions (while, if ..) and block bodies just use ${N} - Thanks + +Open questions: +What about one line if ee then .. else .. vs if \n .. then \n ... \n else \n .. ? +Which additional policies to add? +Discuss at: https://github.com/honza/vim-snippets/issues/230 + +*folding markers*: +Until further work is done on `vim-snipmate`, please don't add folding markers +into snippets. `vim-snipmate` has some comments about how to patch all snippets +on the fly adding those. + +Currently all snippets from UltiSnips have been put into UltiSnips - some work +on merging should be done (dropping duplicates etc). Also see engines section above. + +Related repositories +-------------------- + +We also encourage people to maintain sets of snippets for particular use cases +so that all users can benefit from them. People can list their snippet repositories here: + +* https://github.com/rbonvall/snipmate-snippets-bib (snippets for BibTeX files) +* https://github.com/sudar/vim-arduino-snippets (snippets for Arduino files) +* https://github.com/zedr/zope-snipmate-bundle.git (snippets for Python, TAL and ZCML) +* https://github.com/bonsaiben/bootstrap-snippets (snippets for Twitter Bootstrap markup, in HTML and Haml) +* https://github.com/sniphpets (advanced snippets for PHP, Symfony 2/3, Doctrine and etc.) + +Installation using VAM: https://github.com/MarcWeber/vim-addon-manager + +Future - ideas - examples +------------------------- + +[overview snippet engines](http://vim-wiki.mawercer.de/wiki/topic/text-snippets-skeletons-templates.html) +If you have ideas you can add them to that list of "snippet engine features by example". + +Historical notes +---------------- + +[vim-snipmate][1] was originally started by [Michael Sanders][2] who has now +unfortunately abandoned the project. [Rok Garbas][3] is now maintaining a +[fork][4] of the project in hopes of improving the existing code base. + +Versions / dialects / .. +======================== + +There are some issues, such as newer language versions may require other +snippets than older. If this exists we currently recommend doing this: + +* add snippets/ruby.snippets (common snippets) +* add snippets/ruby-1.8.snippets (1.8 only) +* add snippets/ruby-1.9.snippets (1.9 only) + +then configure https://github.com/garbas/vim-snipmate this way: + +```vim +let g:snipMate = {} +let g:snipMate.scope_aliases = {} +let g:snipMate.scope_aliases['ruby'] = 'ruby,ruby-rails,ruby-1.9' +``` + +If it happens that you work on a project requiring ruby-1.8 snippets instead, +consider using `vim-addon-local-vimrc` and override the filetypes. + +Well - of course it may not make sense to create a new file for each +ruby-library-version triplet. Sometimes postfixing a name such as + +``` +migrate_lib_20_down +migrate_lib_20_up +``` + +will do it then if syntax has changed. + +Language maintainers +-------------------- + +No one can really be proficient in all programming languages. If you would like +to maintain snippets for a language, please get in touch. + +Notes: People are interested in snippets - and their interest may wane again. +This list is kept up-to-date on a best effort basis. + +* Elixir - [lpil](https://github.com/lpil), [iurifq](https://github.com/iurifq) +* Falcon - [steveno](https://github.com/steveno) +* HTML Django - [honza](http://github.com/honza) +* Javascript - [honza](http://github.com/honza) +* Markdown - [honza](http://github.com/honza) +* PHP - [chrisyue](http://github.com/chrisyue) +* Python - [honza](http://github.com/honza) +* Ruby - [taq](http://github.com/taq) +* Scala - [gorodinskiy](https://github.com/gorodinskiy) +* Supercollider - [lpil](https://github.com/lpil) + +License +------- + +Just as the original snipMate plugin, all the snippets are licensed under the +terms of the MIT license. + +[1]: http://github.com/garbas/vim-snipmate +[2]: http://github.com/msanders +[3]: http://github.com/garbas +[4]: http://github.com/garbas/vim-snipmate +[7]: http://github.com/SirVer/ultisnips |
