Autocomplete for standart functions

[sc0rp10]

Hi. I have two questions:
1) How i make full autocomplete for my language (PHP)? e.g. I typed 'mysql_f' and pressed Ctrl+Space and see dropdown list with these words: 'mysql_fetch_array', `mysql_fetch_assoc', 'mysql_fetch_field' etc...
Sorry for my bad English, if You don't understand me, I attached screenshot from notepad++ with this feature:

2) How I make functions/variable-autocomplete in JS, as in PHP?
example: I type in PHP file:

Code: Select all

function myFunc($var) {
    return $var
}

and in other place of document I type 'myF', press Ctrl+space and see dropdown with name of functions whose name begins with 'myF'.
same with the variables. Why this feature works with PHP and not with JS?

You would have to write a plugin to provide these completions.

An example plugin that adds "xyzzy" and "idkfa" as completions is:

Code: Select all

from AutoComplete import AutoCompleteCommand

def exampleCompletions(view, pos, prefix, completions):
   return ["xyzzy", "idkfa"] + completions

AutoCompleteCommand.completionCallbacks['exampleCompletions'] = exampleCompletions

Yes, i did it. But this is not what I need - no filter on the first letter of the function.

this is not what I need.
Can you help me?
P.S. text-file with name of all PHP-functions there

I believe you need to do the filtering of the list within the python code, something like this

Code: Select all

from AutoComplete import AutoCompleteCommand

def exampleCompletions(view, pos, prefix, completions):
   my_completions = ["abs", "acos", "acosh", "and_so_on"]
   return [c for c in my_completions if c.startswith(prefix)] + completions

AutoCompleteCommand.completionCallbacks['exampleCompletions'] = exampleCompletions

Looking good... as a further refinement, you can make it only offer these completions within PHP code:

Code: Select all

from AutoComplete import AutoCompleteCommand

def exampleCompletions(view, pos, prefix, completions):
    my_completions = ["abs", "acos", "acosh", "and_so_on"]
    if view.matchSelector(pos, "source.php"):
        return [c for c in my_completions if c.startswith(prefix)] + completions
    else:
        return completions

AutoCompleteCommand.completionCallbacks['exampleCompletions'] = exampleCompletions

good job, guys! big thanks!
I'll write a similar plugin for JS
Does anyone need it?

I need it for js, but also for html5 & css3. Is there any of these autocomplete plugins available?

Hej, just discovered this marvelous project!

Hooking in this discussion. From my old editor PSPAD I'm used to have variables with it in an intelligent way. Typing <ctrl+space, strp, enter> gives me (| = cursor):

Code: Select all

strpos(|string haystack, string needle, [int offset])

I tried doing it with key-bindings and snippets like this (not exactly understanding the context tag below made me just commenting it..):

Code: Select all

<bindings>
   <binding key="s,t,r,p,o,s,tab" command="insertSnippet 'Packages/PHP/strpos(-).sublime-snippet'">
      <!--<context name="selector" value="text.html - meta.tag - source, punctuation.definition.tag.begin, meta.scope.between-tag-pair.html"/>-->
   </binding>
</bindings>

Code: Select all

<snippet>
    <content><![CDATA[strpos(\$${1:haystack}, \$${2:needle});$0]]></content>
    <tabTrigger>strpos</tabTrigger>
    <scope>source.php</scope>
    <description>strpos …</description>
</snippet>

That works. But has some drawbacks; 1) it doesn't show a drop-down, it only works by typing the whole function name out exactly, without typo's and 2) I would have to create a lot of snippets and key-bindings this way, it would be nice to automate most of this.

Is there anything like this already? Or something pointing in the right direction?
