Per-project definition file?

[jcassee]

From the documentation it seems that the plugin supports only one definition file per user. Is it possible to set a project-specific definition file in some way?

[etienne-monier]

Sublime Text support system-wide as project-wide settings. For project-wide settings, refer to this documentation.

Just specify project-specific settings in .sublime-project file.

Sorry to be a bother, but setting it in the project does not seem to work:

{
	"folders": [
		{
			"name": "My Ledger",
			"path": "/path/to/files"
		}
	],
	"settings": {
		"definition_filename": "/path/to/files/definition.ledger"
	}
}

I still get the error "Ledger definition filename does not exists."

Weirdly, I tried to debug in the console:

>>> os.path.exists(view.settings().get("definition_filename"))
True

So maybe something else is going on. Any idea how to debug further?

[jcassee]

I extracted the LedgerTools package and added some debugging to get_definition_filename. Unfortunately, the plugin is not picking up the project settings, definition_filename is taken from the user settings.

I added the following to get_definition_filename in util.py:

    # Check for filename in the context of the current file if it is not found
    if not os.path.exists(definition_filename):
        current_file = sublime.active_window().active_view().file_name()
        current_dir = os.path.dirname(current_file)
        definition_filename = os.path.join(current_dir, definition_filename)

@etienne-monier can we reopen the issue?

I am experiencing the same issue. +1 for reopening=)

[etienne-monier]

Ok, I'll have a look on that.

[ShrykeWindgrace]

On the first sight, this is not immediately possible: per the documentation (https://www.sublimetext.com/docs/projects.html#settings-key)

Note that only settings in the category Editor Settings may be controlled by a project.

These editor settings seem to not include plugin-specific things. I'll take a look whether we can override syntax-specific settings on a project basis...

[jcassee]

Indeed, that is why the code snippet above allows the definition_filename to be relative to the current file location. But maybe having it relative to the project file would be even better.

Hello! Just a friendly reminder that there is PR addressing this issue =)

[etienne-monier]

Hi,
I'm currently making a whole refactor to make clear code and tests.

Concerning the settings, the keys are going to be configurable via the project settings file or the pluggin setting files.

Thanks for the update!

Hi! Any progress on this?
