ann: elm-light 0.1.0 - Elm plugin for Light Table

[Magnus Rundberget]

Hi !

I'm completely new to Elm, but just as a learning experience I've created a Light Table plugin for Elm.

Highlights for the initial release includes:
- Syntax hightlighting (using basic CodeMirror mode)
- Linting
- Inline eval/repl (very crude, using a background process running elm-repl)
- Make shortcut
- Automtically starts elm-reactor in the background (using a port range to support multiple projects concurrently)
- Inline documentation (using elm-oracle)
- Language docs (again compliments of elm-oracle)
- Simple autocompleter (elm-oracle to the rescue)

I've created a screencast to demo it's features: http://rundis.github.io/blog/2015/elm_light.html
The project resides on https://github.com/rundis/elm-light

Comments appreciated, and if someone would be willing to help out improving and extending it do let me know !

cheers
Magnus

I'm not a Light Table user myself, but it is nice to see this happening!

If or when you are at a stage where this is ready for "public consumption", please make sure that other Elm users will find it via the website. There are two places where editor plugins are mentioned:

http://elm-lang.org/install
http://elm-lang.org/Get-Started.elm

The relevant code to make pull requests on to add a link to your plugin is in

https://github.com/elm-lang/elm-lang.org/blob/master/src/pages/install.elm

and

https://github.com/elm-lang/elm-lang.org/blob/master/src/pages/get-started.elm

respectively.

Thank you for the great plugin!
A tip: if you want to lint on save, add this to your user keymap (cmd-s on OS X):

[:editor "ctrl-s" :save :clear-inline-results :elm.lint]

This is amazing!

For anyone who didn't watch the video, it has elm-reactor working right from within the editor. It looks incredibly slick.

Thanks Magnus!

This is awesome, nice work!

I got round to trying this out today. Wow, I'm really impressed! The inline errors are brilliant. Actually, pretty much every feature you list is awesome, as well as the new package manager. 
I've switched from Atom. Light Table is quite a decent editor these days. Oh, and great tip Denes - I'll be using that.
