These are my set of configurations for the Atom text editor. It is geared for working in JavaScript, Golang, Rust, Markdown, HTML and CSS.

0. Atom version

Needs atom v1.6+.

1. Clone the repository

   $ git clone [email protected]:kaustavdm/dotatom --recursive

2. Set-up symlink

   $ ln -s <path-to>/dotatom ~/.atom

3. Copy config.cson.sample to config.cson and edit values

   $ cp <path-to>/dotatom/config.cson.sample <path-to>/dotatom/config.cson

4. Set-up dependencies available on npm

   $ sudo npm install -g aspell jslint tern

5. Set-up Go dependencies

   • Install Golang
   • Set GOPATH environment variable
   • Install Gocode: $ go get -u github.com/nsf/gocode.
   • Install Golint: $ go get -u github.com/golang/lint.
   • Install Gorename: $ go get golang.org/x/tools/cmd/gorename.
   • Make sure gocode, godef, golint and gorename executibles are on PATH.

6. Set-up Rust dependencies

   • Install Rust
   • Download Rust sources and set RUST_SRC_PATH environment variable to the ./src directory in the Rust source.
   • Install Racer: $ cargo install racer
   • Install Rustfmt: $ cargo install rustfmt
   • Make sure the racer and rustfmt executibles are on PATH.

7. Install Adobe Source Code Pro font

   • Download and install the font from Source Code Pro releases.

8. Install atom package dependencies:

   For Linux/OSX:

   $ cd <path-to>/dotatom
   $ sh ./install.sh

   For Windows:

   $ cd <path-to>/dotatom
   $ install.bat

   If you encounter an error, go through the error log and install necessary dependencies.

9. Run atom. In the directory that you want atom to begin, run $ atom ..
