TextMate Grammar for Scenic

This repository provides a TextMate-format grammar for the Scenic scenario description language, suitable for use with Sublime Text, Atom, and Visual Studio Code. The grammar gives best results on Scenic 3 code, but should largely work for older versions as well. Note that in VS Code, the default theme does not highlight operators in a different color than identifiers, which doesn't work well for Scenic code: other themes (e.g. Monokai) work better.

The grammar is based on the MagicPython grammar by MagicStack Inc., which is also available under the MIT license (see LICENSE). The rest of this README is adapted from parts of the MagicPython README.

Installation Instructions

In Atom, install the Scenic package.

In Sublime Text, install Scenic package via "Package Control".

In VSCode, starting with version 0.10.1, install Scenic with Install Extension command.

Alternatively, the package can be installed manually in all editors, by copying the Scenic package into the Sublime/Atom/VSCode user packages directory.

Development

You need npm and node.js to work on this grammar.

  • clone the repository
  • run make to build the local development environment
  • run make release to build the syntax packages for Sublime Text and Atom

Color Scheme

If you want to write your own color scheme you can find a list of all the scopes that we use in misc/scopes. The file is automatically generated based on the syntax grammar, so it is always up-to-date and exhaustive.
