kbsymanz / ctags-elm Goto Github PK

If the recursive ctags option is used and the directory includes elm-stuff, it may include references found in some of the native js files.

.ctags is a hidden file. There's no reason for this to be a dot file in the repo, users can copy the contents to their .ctags file or other destination, or link to it with a different name. I'm using fresh. But it dosn't even show up in nerdtree until I turn on hidden files which is odd. I'm proposing to rename the file to elm.ctags and add a symlink to .ctags for backward compatibility. With a note in the readme to deprecate use of the hidden file. What do you think?

This isn't really a valid distinction in functional programming. Constants are functions that don't take arguments. If we do want to distinguish them, I
think we need to do so on the function declaration (one or more lower case
identifiers followed by equals, or something) not by type as is
currently the case.

I have defined a function type:

type alias Renderer =
    List (Attribute Msg) -> String -> Html Msg

And instances of this type:

renderName : Field.Renderer
renderName atts value =
   ...

get falsely classified as constants because there is no arrow on the type even though the declaration clearly takes a parameter.

Since type annotations are optional, it'd probably be better to match on the first line of a function definition if that's possible. What do you think?
