mustache and handlebars mode for vim

Note: This repo is deprecated, active development moved to mustache/vim-mode.

A vim plugin for working with mustache and handlebars templates. It has:

• syntax highlighting
• matchit support
• mustache abbreviations (optional)
• section movement mappings [[ and ]]

Install for pathogen

cd ~/.vim/
git submodule add git://github.com/mustache/vim-mode.git bundle/mustache
vim bundle/mustache/example.mustache

Get pathogen.

Manually Install

cd ~/.local/src
git clone git://github.com/mustache/vim-mode.git mustache.vim
cp -R mustache.vim/syntax/* ~/.vim/syntax/
cp -R mustache.vim/ftdetect/* ~/.vim/ftdetect/
cp -R mustache.vim/ftplugin/* ~/.vim/ftplugin/
vim mustache.vim/example.mustache

Mustache Abbreviations

You can activate mustache abbreviations by putting this line in your .vimrc: let g:mustache_abbreviations = 1

Now you get a set of convenient abbreviations. Underscore _ indicates where your cursor ends up after typing an abbreviation:

• {{ => {{_}}

• {{{ => {{{_}}}

• {{! => {{!_}}

• {{> => {{>_}}

• {{< => {{<_}}

• {{# produces

  {{# _}}
  {{/}}
  

• {{if produces

  {{#if _}}
  {{/if}}
  

• {{ife produces

  {{#if _}}
  {{else}}
  {{/if}}
  

Section movement mappings

Following the vim convention of jumping from section to section, [[ and ]] mappings are implemented for easier movement between mustache tags.

• ]] jumps to the first following tag
• [[ jumps to the first previous tag

Count with section movements is supported:

• 2]] jumps to the second next tag
