TextMate Bundles

Last modified: 19 March 2022

For a number of languages that are not supported in PhpStorm, for example, Python, Ruby, and Java, the IDE still provides syntax highlighting to improve your coding experience if you occasionally need to examine such code. To learn how to describe languages using the TextMate grammar, see the TextMate official website.

Syntax highlighting for these languages is based on TextMate grammars, and PhpStorm is shipped with a collection of grammar files for different languages. All the available bundles are listed on the Editor | TextMate Bundles page of the Settings/Preferences dialog (Ctrl+Alt+S).

You can also download and use custom TextMate bundles for other languages.

note

Before you start, make sure the TextMate Bundles bundled plugin is enabled in the Installed tab of the Settings/Preferences | Plugins page as described in Managing plugins.

Importing bundles

Suppose you want PhpStorm to highlight syntax of the OCaml files. For this purpose, you have already downloaded the OCaml TextMate Bundle. It now resides on your hard disk, and you only have to import this bundle into PhpStorm.

Testing

Once a TextMate bundle is added, PhpStorm provides syntax highlighting for the file types registered with the bundle. Here's a sample OCaml code fragment that uses the TextMate bundle we've added earlier:
