Exoskeleton - Skeleton improved

Open files and evaluates vimscript from a template.

Example:

The year is {{strftime("%Y")}}

Transforms to

The year is 2018

Installation

Plug 'joereynolds/exoskeleton.vim'

Templates

There are two kinds of templates ft and place.

ft

ft is the traditional skeleton that you're used to, but this time with vimscript! Dump your ft templates in ~/.vim/exoskeleton/ft e.g. ~/.vim/exoskeleton/ft/test.php

Any vimscript enclosed in these (configurable) delimiters will be evaluated.

Copyright {{strftime("%Y")}}
The year is {{strftime("%Y")}}

This string has no placeholder

The files in here are: 
{{glob("./*")}}

Transforms to

Copyright 2018

place examples

place is a mapping to a directory on your filesystem, this is mega handy for the newer frameworks that are cropping up and force you to a specific structure. Dump your place templates in ~/.vim/exoskeleton/place

(Nested in ~/.vim/exoskeleton/place/home-joe-code-models)

// ~/.vim/exoskeleton/place/home-joe-code-models/exoskeleton
<?php

if (!defined('BASEPATH')) {
    exit('No direct script access allowed');
}

class {{expand('%:t:r')}} extends CI_Model
{

}

Transforms to (assuming the filename is MyModel.php)

<?php

if (!defined('BASEPATH')) {
    exit('No direct script access allowed');
}

class MyModel extends CI_Model
{

}
