KDE/Plasma development team relies on kdesrc-build tool to manage their development setup: fetch and update source code, set up environment variables, resolve dependencies, compile and install projects.
This package brings support for kdesrc-build into Sublime Text editor:
-
intelligent syntax highlighting with snippets and plugins makes it easy to edit and navigate between kdesrc-buildrc configuration files.
-
Context-aware auto-completion suggests option names, and their values, be it boolean flags, predefined set of strings, dynamic list of choices or file system paths.
-
LSP-style documentation1 for each option: just hover the option name, or click "More" in the completions popup.
-
Syntax for output panel of build commands / build results: while this package does not2 provide any *.sublime-build build system definitions, you may easily add your own (with exact kdesrc-build invocation command that fits your needs), and get nice colorful output like in real terminal:
{ "cmd": ["kdesrc-build", "--no-include-dependencies", "--no-src", "kirigami"], "syntax": "scope:source.build_output.kdesrc-build", }
-
Support for KDebugSettings data files generated by
ecm_qt_install_logging_categories
which define logging categories and keep track of their renamings.

It is planned, however, to implement a build system that detects which package current buffer belongs to, and rebuild only that package. Someday… ↩
