For Vim version 7.0 or later.
|
|
This plugin only works if 'compatible' is not set.
|
|
{Vi does not have any of these features.}
|
|
|

==============================================================================
|
|
INTRODUCTION *cocoa-intro*
|
|
|
|
Cocoa.vim is a collection of scripts designed to make it easier to develop
|
|
Cocoa/Objective-C applications. It includes enhanced syntax highlighting, code
|
|
completion, documentation lookup, as well as a number of other features that
|
|
can be used to integrate Vim with Xcode, allowing you to essentially replace
|
|
Xcode's editor with Vim.
|
|
|
|
==============================================================================
|
|
INSTALLATION *cocoa-installation*
|
|
|
|
Documentation lookup and code completion for Cocoa.vim currently only work on
|
|
OS X 10.5+ (although the other parts should work on any platform). To install,
|
|
simply unzip cocoa.zip to your home vim directory (typically ~/.vim).
|
|
|
|
*cocoa-suggested-plugins*
|
|
The code completion in cocoa.vim uses snipMate, if you have it installed, to
|
|
allow you to conveniently <tab> over the parameters in functions and
|
|
methods. If you like cocoa.vim, you may also find objc_matchbracket.vim
|
|
useful.
|
|
|
|
*leopard-security-alert*
|
|
Documentation works by showing the page in your default browser, which
|
|
apparently causes Leopard to warn you of opening an html file for every word
|
|
you look up. To fix this, see this page: http://tinyurl.com/remove-annoying-alert

|
|
|
==============================================================================
|
|
FEATURE OVERVIEW *cocoa-features*
|
|
|
|
1. Enhanced syntax highlighting; Vim's syntax highlighting for
|
|
Objective-C seemed a bit incomplete to me, so I have added a few
|
|
niceties, such as highlighting Cocoa keywords and differentiating
|
|
the method name and passed objects in method calls and definitions.
|
|
2. Xcode-like mappings; mappings such as <d-r> (where "d" is "command")
|
|
to build & run and <d-0> to switch to the project window help to
|
|
integrate Xcode and Vim. For a complete list of the mappings in
|
|
cocoa.vim, see |cocoa-mappings|.
|
|
3. Methods for the current file can be listed and navigated to with
|
|
the |:ListMethods| command.
|
|
4. A template of methods declared in a header file (.h) can be built
|
|
in an implementation file (.m) with |:BuildMethods|.
|
|
5. Cocoa/C Documentation can be looked up with the |:CocoaDoc| command,
|
|
or simply with Vim's |K|.
|
|
6. Code completion for classes, methods, functions, constants, types,
|
|
and notifications can be invoked with <c-x><c-o>. Parameters for
|
|
methods and functions are automatically converted to snippets to
|
|
<tab> over if you have snipMate installed.
|
|
|
|
==============================================================================
|
|
MAPPINGS *cocoa-mappings* *g:objc_man_key*
|
|
|
|
Cocoa.vim maps the following keys, some for convenience and others to
|
|
integrate with Xcode:
|
|
(Disclaimer: Sorry, I could not use the swirly symbols because vim/git was
|
|
having encoding issues. Just pretend that e.g. <d-r> means cmd-r.)
|
|
|
|
|<Leader>|A - Alternate between header (.h) and implementation (.m) file
|
|
K - Look up documentation for word under cursor[1]
|
|
<d-m-up> - <Leader>A
|
|
<d-r> - Build & Run (Go)
|
|
<d-cr> - CMD-R
|
|
<d-b> - Build
|
|
<shift-k> - Clean
|
|
<d-0> - Go to Project
|
|
<d-2> - :ListMethods
|
|
<F5> (in insert mode) - Show omnicompletion menu
|
|
<d-/> - Comment out line
|
|
<d-[> - Decrease indent
|
|
<d-]> - Increase indent
|
|
|
|
([1] This can be customized by the variable g:objc_man_key.)
|
|
|
|
==============================================================================
|
|
COMMANDS *cocoa-commands*
|
|
|
|
*:ListMethods*
|
|
:ListMethods Open a split window containing the methods, functions,
|
|
and #pragma marks of the current file.
|
|
*:BuildMethods*
|
|
:BuildMethods [headerfile]
|
|
Build a template of methods in an implementation (.m)
|
|
from a list declared in a header file (.h). If no
|
|
argument is given, the corresponding header file is
|
|
used (e.g. "foo.m" -> "foo.h").
|
|
|
|
==============================================================================
|
|
CODE COMPLETION *cocoa-completion*
|
|
|
|
When cocoa.vim is installed the 'omnifunc' is automatically set to
|
|
'cocoacomplete#Complete'. This allows you to complete classes, functions,
|
|
methods, etc. with <c-x><c-o>. These keywords are saved from header files in
|
|
~/.vim/lib/cocoa_indexes; they have been built for you, although you can build
|
|
them again by running ~/.vim/lib/extras/cocoa_definitions.py.
|
|
|
|
Completions with parameters (i.e., functions and methods) are automatically
|
|
converted to |snipMate| if it is installed. To invoke the snippet, simply
|
|
press a whitespace character (space, tab, or return), and then navigate the
|
|
snippet as you would in snipMate.
|
