CrontabSublime

version 0.1

Example

A package I wrote for ST3 to syntax highlight Crontabs since the old package available has not beem updated since 2015 and doesn't work. I have inherited a regex, but intend to remove it's use in a future release as it's quite complicate and doesn't allow TODO 1 easily.

Crontabs are arguably a dying thing with systemd, but crontabs are still a quick and dirty way to get things running without too much effort, so some use is nice.

Installation

  1. Run “Package Control: Install Package” command, find and install Crontab plugin.
  2. Close and reopen file

Notes

  • Will highlight packages with tab and crontab suffices. For custom suffices/filenames, add to your personal sublime text preferences.
  • Uses bash highlighting in your commands.
  • Comment and uncommenting lines using ctrl/cmd + / works as expected

Todos

  1. Report errors in syntax in the time string
  2. Alert on unescaped usage of % in crontab line
  3. Provide an autocomplete like syntax for inserting new command lines
  4. Provide a template file of things to do when creating a crontab file
  5. Highlight the valid @ syntax uses and not all uses
