Emmet (ex-Zen Coding) for Sublime Text 2

[iamntz]

Pretty weird that no one said anything about this one: https://github.com/sergeche/emmet-sublime

Did anyone tried? Any impressions?

As i know it is still in beta
waiting for release
this tool should be even more powerful than zen coding

The emmet plugin will eventually supplant the existing, end of line, ZenCoding plugin for SublimeText, which will never receive another update.

I recommend testing it out and filing feedback.

I've been using it already a bit. Looks really solid.

Code: Select all

p10 ⊕ tab

to generate

Code: Select all

padding:10px;

is perfect!
There are some issues with snippets in HTML, which stop working with emmet if the default tab is used for completions https://github.com/sergeche/emmet-sublime/issues/9 - I had to change this behaviour.

Can anyone explain how to make it work?
I am installing plugin via package control, but sublime has no reaction - emmet hot keys don`t work, there is no new commands in command panel and there is no entry in console at program start up.

I just installed it - kicks ass. I prefer it over ZenCoding any day

I used to be able to create a new document and hit shift-control-option-H to set the language to html and insert an html5 basic skeleton. With emmet installed this doesn't work.

I have to save the empty document as an html file, then I can type html:5 TAB to get the same code. Any idea why?

It also doesn't show up for me in Package Control. I had to clone it from github.

It does say on the readme part...

How to install
Clone git repo into your packages folder (in ST2, find Browse Packages... menu item to open this folder)
Restart ST2 editor
Or with package control:

Package Control: Add Repository https://github.com/sergeche/emmet-sublime
Package Control: Install Package emmet-sublime
Restart ST2 editor
You should remove or disable previous Zen Coding plugin, installed from Package Control, in order to operate properly.

I've been using it for a couple of days and I'm loving those new smart snippets (p10<tab> -> padding: 10px;), but I've noticed some annoying issues with the new "expand unknown tags" behavior. If I try to expand "php" in a html scope, i'll get <php></php> instead of <?php ?>.
