sublimegen

sublimegen

This is a tool that will convert a BNF (conforming to the GOCC syntax) for a language to a SublimeText Syntax Highlighting Plugin. It uses gocc, a parser generator written in Go.

How to use

If we assume that we generated a binary file called sublimegen. Running it for the language Calc whose configuration files can be found in languagefiles/calc_languagefiles is ass follows:

./sublimegen -fileTypes "calc" -name "Calc" -scopeName "source.calc" -source languagefiles/calc_languagefiles/calc.bnf -scopes languagefiles/calc_languagefiles/scopes.json -orderregex 1

Dependencies

• golang-pkg-pcre
  • libpcre++-dev
• gouuid
• greenery
• Python 2.7.6
• gocc

Additional

The python scripts (scripts/generate-*.py) are used for testing. The tool does not depend on them. The scripts depend on xeger (it can also be found in rstr).
