#Opener

Screenshot

It also presents a notion of "Active item" and can be used to run arbitrary shell commands againts it.

##Usage

Besides the above menu the following commands are available

  • Terminal: Open in active workspace :lt.plugins.opener/open-terminal-in-active-workspace
  • Terminal: Open in active dir :lt.plugins.opener/open-terminal-in-active-dir
  • Explorer: Open active workspace :lt.plugins.opener/open-active-workspace
  • Explorer: Reveal active item :lt.plugins.opener/reveal-active-item
  • Run shell command againts active item (#item-type #command) (hidden) :lt.plugins.opener/shell

where

  • Active item - is what is opened in the currently active tab
  • Active dir - the dir of the active item (if file) or active item itself
  • Active workspace dir - folder from the current workspace that is also a parent of the active item. If there is only one folder, that one will be returned regardless of the active item.

##Customization

Use :lt.plugins.opener/set-shell-command behavior to setup platform specific command for a given action. For example

;; set the terminal to iTerm
{:+ {:lt.plugins.opener/settings
     [(:lt.plugins.opener/set-shell-command
       :terminal
       :mac
       ["open" "{{path}}" "-a" "iTerm"])]}}

{{path}} token will be replaced with the given file system path during invocation. Note, that a command is not a string, but a list of command line arguments.

Use :lt.plugins.opener/shell for shortcuting arbitrary shell command. For example:

{:app {;; add active file to git with Alt+s
       "alt-s" [(:lt.plugins.opener/shell :active-item ["git" "add" "{{path}}"])]}
       ;; Platform indirection is also supported
       "alt-w" [(:lt.plugins.opener/shell :active-workspace-dir :open)]}

##Quirks

On linuxes we do not have cross platform tools to do the job. By default we use xdg-open(1) for opening, nautilus for revealing and gnome-terminal as a terminal.

##Installation

Available in the central plugin repository. You might need to run Refresh plugin list, Reload app behaviors commands after installation.
