Yet Another Launcher (YAL) - a Sublime Text 3 launcher plugin
A Sublime Text plugin that is an easy launcher for local files, directories or urls.
You will find all release notes in RELEASES.md. For a quick overview follows the latest two release notes below.
v1.0.5
- adding support for launching YAL with the arguments:
- “by_launcher” - opens quickpanel and allows to select a launcher
- “by_category” - opens quickpanel and allows to select an item category (url, file+sys, file+subl)
- added “by_category” to menu and command palette (“by_launcher” was already there)
- added support for expanding elements in path names (~, ~user, %USERPROFILE%, %APPDATA%, %LOCALAPPDATA%, %PUBLIC%, %WINDIR%, %SYSTEMROOT%, %TEMP%, %TMP%, %USERNAME% - ~/~user works on Windows as well)
- switched to a development branch on Github for developing new features
v1.0.4 - added infos about releases
- added release notes to repo and README.md
Installation
You only need to install this package:
- Using the Package Control plugin - you will find it here.
- Manually, either download or checkout this repository and install into your packages directory.
Usage
Via Command Palette or Tools menu
You can access Yet Another Launcher via the Command Palette (Command+Shift+P
on OS X, Control+Shift+P
on Linux/Windows) by selecting “Yet Another Launcher”.
You can also find the Yet Another Launcher submenu in the menu Tools
.
Via keybindings
You can also easily bind the launcher command to a key of your choice, e.g. {"keys": ["f1"], "command": "yet_another_launcher"}
. If you want to launch the default launcher only you can bind it with the following code: {"keys": ["shift+f1"], "command": "yet_another_launcher","args": {"launcher": "default"}},
.
Notice: YAL doesn't set any keybindings per default. You have to set them yourself if you want to use it.
Via directly calling the command
The plugin defines one Sublime.WindowCommand
with the name yet_another_launcher
. You can run it on various places in Sublime Text, e.g. in the console via window.run_command("yet_another_launcher")
or window.run_command("yet_another_launcher", {"launcher": "default"})
.
You can see the various command arguments used in Main.sublime-menu.

Upcoming Features
Over time I will try to add the following features:

- [ ] testing it on Linux and making it work there (it should already work, but it isn't tested yet)
- [ ] testing it on Mac and making it work there (it should already work, but it isn't tested yet)
- [ ] implementing launcher category
file+subl
to open files in the current Sublime Text session - [ ] adding support for operating system dependend user settings
Configuration
You configure your launcher and launchable items via the plugin settings file. Via the application menu, go to "Preferences" -> "Package Settings" -> "Yet Another Launcher" -> "Settings - User"
.
Example configuration
The configuration is written in JSON as usual for Sublime Text settings.
You need a top level JSON-object called launchers
. Under it you have to create different launcher objects. In the example you see a launcher called default
.
YAL supports expanding of ~ / ~user on all operating systems, and the expansion of the following Windows environment variables on Windows: %USERPROFILE%, %APPDATA%, %LOCALAPPDATA%, %PUBLIC%, %WINDIR%, %SYSTEMROOT%, %TEMP%, %TMP%, %USERNAME%
{
//
// the "launchers" object is needed and contains all launchers
//
"launchers": {
//
// under "launchers" you can create at least one named launcher,
// at least you have to define one launcher with the name "default"
//
// "default" is used if you launch YAL's default launcher
//
"default": {
//
// in launchers you can create three different objects:
//
// "url" - for urls that will be opened in your default browser
// "file+sys" - for files or directories that will be opened with the
// default application of your operating system
// "file+subl" - for files or directories that will be opened in your
// current Sublime Text session
