Friendly Interactive Shell (fish)

A Sublime Text package for the friendly interactive shell. It features a robust syntax highlighting scheme that mimics the native highlighting behaviour of fish.

The package currently supports up to fish version: 3.7

Note: ST3 support will cease in a future release. ST2 support is capped at fish 2.7 with a limited set of the following features.

Features

  • Snippets for common constructs.
  • Extensive syntax highlighting:
  • Indent and prettify: Reformat the active file with fish_indent:
    • Use ctrl+alt+i or your build system shortcut (eg, ctrl+b).
    • Optional setting to run automatically when file is saved.

Installation

Via Package Control

Install Package Control, then go to Command Palette (Ctrl+Shift+P) > Package Control: Install Package > fish.

Manual

Clone the repository to your Packages directory and rename it to fish.

cd /path/to/sublime/packages/directory
git clone https://github.com/Phidica/sublime-fish.git
mv sublime-fish fish

Open a .fish file and verify the selected syntax is "Fish".

Screenshots

As of release 3.0.0, a fish script (for example, fish-shell/share/functions/ls.fish) will look something like:

Branches and releases

Support for different ST major versions is separated between several branches:

  • master: Plugins compatible with ST4, and syntax provides highlighting for fish versions 2.7 and up.
  • st3: Plugins compatible with ST3 and above (via backwards compatibility features), and syntax provides highlighting for fish versions 2.7 and up.
  • st2: Plugins only compatible with ST2, syntax uses the more limited tmLanguage scheme instead of sublime-syntax, and provides highlighting for fish 2.7 only.

The particular fish major version supported by a tagged release is indicated by the version number:

  • The 2.x.x series (on st2 and st3) only supports fish 2.7.
  • The 3.x.x series (on st3 and master) includes support for fish 3.0 and beyond.

Contribution

Requirements:

  • PackageDev, only for ST2 development and changing the tmPreferences file.

ST2 development: The source file of the syntax is fish.YAML-tmLanguage. When editing this file, "compile" it with the PackageDev build system to automatically generate the fish.tmLanguage file which is used by Sublime Text 2.

ST3+ development: The source file of the syntax is fish.sublime-syntax.

Guide for contributing is located here.

History

The first Sublime Text fish syntax highlighter was by toru hamaguchi. When that project became unmaintained, @Phidica fully rewrote the schema and replaced the links on Package Control.
