A port of tm4e to bring TextMate grammars to dotnet ecosystem
TextMateSharp
An interpreter for grammar files as defined by TextMate. TextMate grammars use the oniguruma dialect (https://github.com/kkos/oniguruma). Supports loading grammar files only from JSON format. Cross - grammar injections are currently not supported.
TextMateSharp is a port of microsoft/vscode-textmate that brings TextMate grammars to dotnet ecosystem. The implementation is based the Java port eclipse/tm4e.
TextMateSharp uses a wrapper around Oniguruma regex engine. Read below to learn how to build Oniguruma bindings.
TextMateSharp is used by AvaloniaEdit.
Building
Just execute dotnet build under the folder TextMateSharp
Using
class Program
{
static void Main(string[] args)
{
try
{
IRegistryOptions options = new LocalRegistryOptions();
Registry.Registry registry = new Registry.Registry(options);
List<string> textLines = new List<string>();
textLines.Add("using static System; /* comment here */");
textLines.Add("namespace Example");
textLines.Add("{");
textLines.Add("}");
IGrammar grammar = registry.LoadGrammar("source.cs");
StackElement ruleStack = null;
foreach (string line in textLines)
{
Console.WriteLine(string.Format("Tokenizing line: {0}", line));
ITokenizeLineResult result = grammar.TokenizeLine(line, ruleStack);
ruleStack = result.RuleStack;
foreach (IToken token in result.GetTokens())
{
int startIndex = (token.StartIndex > line.Length) ?
line.Length : token.StartIndex;
int endIndex = (token.EndIndex > line.Length) ?
line.Length : token.EndIndex;
Console.WriteLine(string.Format(
" - token from {0} to {1} -->{2}<-- with scopes {3}",
startIndex,
endIndex,
line.SubstringAtIndexes(startIndex, endIndex),
string.Join(",", token.Scopes)));
foreach (string scopeName in token.Scopes)
{
Theme theme = registry.GetTheme();
List<ThemeTrieElementRule> themeRules =
theme.Match(scopeName);
foreach (ThemeTrieElementRule themeRule in themeRules)
{
Console.WriteLine(
" - Matched theme rule: " +
"[bg: {0}, fg:{1}, fontStyle: {2}]",
theme.GetColor(themeRule.background),
theme.GetColor(themeRule.foreground),
themeRule.fontStyle);
}
}
}
}
}
catch (Exception ex)
{
Console.WriteLine("ERROR: " + ex.Message);
}
