README
¶
Run code in Atom!
Run selections of code, code based on line number, or the whole file!
Currently supported grammars are:
- AppleScript
- Bash
- Behat Feature
- Coffeescript
- CoffeeScript (Literate) ^
- Cucumber (Gherkin) *
- Elixir
- Erlang †
- F# *
- Go *
- Groovy
- Haskell
- Javascript
- Julia
- LiveScript
- Lua
- newLISP
- Perl
- PHP
- Python
- RSpec
- Ruby
- Scala
NOTE: Some grammars may require you to install a custom language package.
You only have to add a few lines in a PR to support another.
Limitations
^ Running selections of code for CoffeeScript (Literate) only works when selecting just the code blocks
† Erlang uses erl
for limited selection based runs (see #70)
* Cucumber (Gherkin), Go, and F# do not support selection based runs
Installation
apm install script
or
Search for script
within package search in the Settings View.
Atom can't find node | ruby | python | my socks
Make sure to launch Atom from the console/terminal. This gives atom all your useful environment variables.
If you really wish to open atom from a launcher/icon, see this issue for a variety of workarounds that have been suggested.
Usage
Make sure to run atom
from the command line to get full access to your environment variables. Running Atom from the icon will launch using launchctl's environment.
Select some code and use Script: Run to run just that selection.
By default Script: Run will run your entire file.
Use Script: Run at line to run using the line [number] specific. Note that if you select an entire line this number could be off by one due to the way Atom detects numbers while text is selected.
Script: Run Options can be used to configure command options and program arguments.
Script: Kill Process will kill the process but leaves the pane open.
Script: Close View closes the pane and kills the process.
To kill everything, click the close icon in the upper right and just go back to coding.

Development
Use the atom contributing guidelines. They're pretty sane.
Quick and dirty setup
apm develop script
This will clone the script
repository to ~/github
unless you set the
ATOM_REPOS_HOME
environment variable.
I already cloned it!
If you cloned it somewhere else, you'll want to use apm link --dev
within the
package directory, followed by apm install
to get dependencies.
Workflow
After pulling upstream changes, make sure to run apm update
.
To start hacking, make sure to run atom --dev
from the package directory.
Cut a branch while you're working then either submit a Pull Request when done
or when you want some feedback!
