TextMate Bundles

Last modified: 09 August 2022

warning

The following is only valid when the TextMate Bundles Support plugin is installed and enabled.

Projects can contain file types unknown to RubyMine. While RubyMine comes with the built-in support for many programming and scripting languages. If you want to have syntax highlighting for the project-specific languages, use the powerful RubyMine's integration with the text editor TextMate.

All the available bundles are listed on the Editor | TextMate Bundles page In the Settings/Preferences dialog (Ctrl+Alt+S).

Learning how to describe languages using the TextMate grammar is out of the scope of this document. Refer to product documentation for more details about TextMate.

Prerequisites

Make sure that:

  • You have already downloaded bundles you want to use. You can, for example, find the bundles you want to install on GitHub or Subversion.

  • Before you start working with TextMate Bundles, make sure that the plugin is enabled. The plugin is bundled with RubyMine and is activated by default. If the plugin is not activated, enable it on the Plugins page of the IDE settings Ctrl+Alt+S as described in Install plugins.

Importing bundles

Suppose you want RubyMine 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 RubyMine.

Testing

Once a TextMate bundle is added, RubyMine 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:
