Potentially move the content to openhab-distro?
As these files seem to be quite useful for many openHAB users on Linux, I wonder if you might want to move them from your private repo to some official openHAB repo instead (as suggested here)? We could then add it to the documentation for people to easier find and use this.
Documentation is available but probably hard to find for the normal user... https://github.com/openhab/openhab/wiki/Syntax-Highlighting-for-external-editors
Hello!
Sorry for the long time it took. :( I tried transfering the project into the openHAB organization but it wouldn't let me as I am not an admin of the openHAB organization. I added @kaikreuzer to the repo and I hope it'll be possible for you to transfer it.
Cheers Hannes
Thanks @cyberkov. If you carefully read my suggestion in this issue above, I suggested to move the content of this repo to openHAB, not the repo itself. After all, these are merely two ascii files, imho not worth to maintain a repo on its own, but they could be put in openhab-distro, would you agree?
Before this happens, I'd like to discuss issue https://github.com/cyberkov/openhab-vim/issues/2
@kaikreuzer @cyberkov Have you thought about sending this syntax files to Bram Moolenaar (Vim Maintainer) and ask him to include this files in the official vim repo? When moving this repo to the openhab organization first more people could merge PRs which isn't a bad thing
Hello!
Actually I was thinking of having the file included in the debian vim package family while I was preparing the debian package. This would bring the syntax into Raspbian with future releases. But I haven't had time to get in touch (and make the script a proper debian citizen :-)). On the other hand it might be an issue that openhab is not officially included in debian (which in turn can be problematic with the "dependency" on Oracle Java instead of openjdk).
I don't want it to be mixed with the openhab core as the runtime is used on operating systems where vim is not included by default as well ;-)
Cheers Hannes
If you want, I can ask at the vim repo if they would include the syntax files in vim. Like other syntax files they would be still here in this repo, but distributed with vim. I am running openHAB with openjdk-8 and it works good, so that might be not a problem
@cyberkov While there is no package in Debian/Ubuntu repos, there is a arch linux user repo: https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/openhab-runtime/
I have to again raise my concerns in #2. The definitions are not compatible with other editors.
@cyberkov Non free dependecies are not a problem: https://github.com/vim/vim/issues/1678#issuecomment-299648264

Note that @Confectrician is working on moving these to the official docs: https://github.com/openhab/openhab-docs/pull/434
