Could I make a new snippet to insert nowTime or nowDate ?
I don’t understand the variable is ? $date ?
New Snippets about envirnment tag
AFAIK, at present you cannot put interpolated code in snippets, so you can’t do what you want with a snippet only.
What you can do, is create a plugin in Python that will compute the date and insert it in an inline snippet, effectively achieving the same result.
Here’s an example:
[code]# put the following in insertdate.py under %appdata%/Sublime Text/Packages/User
import sublime, sublimeplugin
import datetime
class SimplyInsertDateCommand(sublimeplugin.TextCommand):
def run(self, view, args):
dateAsStr = datetime.datetime.today().strftime("%x")
view.insert(view.sel()[0].begin(), dateAsStr)
[/code]
[code]# put the following in insertdate2.py under %appdata%/Sublime Text/Packages/User
import sublime, sublimeplugin
import datetime
class InsertDateWithSnippetCommand(sublimeplugin.TextCommand):
def run(self, view, args):
dateAsStr = datetime.datetime.today().strftime("%x")
snippet = “Date: $1 abc $2 abc ${3:%s}” % dateAsStr
view.runCommand(“insertInlineSnippet ‘%s’” % snippet)
[/code]
# put this in your user's key bindings (look in the Preferences menu)
<binding key="d,a,t,e,tab" command="simplyInsertDate" />
<binding key="d,a,t,e,2,tab" command="insertDateWithSnippet" />
You actually don’t need to put the two plugins in two separate files, but ST was giving me some trouble if I didn’t. After restarting it everything works fine again with a single file.
hi!
I resume this tread to know if is possible to insert some little code in the snippet, for the date or similar function.
For example I’ve this snippets:

Is pretty to substitute the 2011 on the template with a function that return the year…

I’m using this hack for the last few months and it’s working ok.
By default, snippets are expanded .on_pre_save(), you can play with “Default (Template).sublime-keymap”, but for me it causes more problems than it solves.
