tern-meteor v1.0.6

NOTE: this is a fork from Slava's work. I simply wanted to be able to npm install it, since that lets tern use this to resolve the plugin in .tern-project without futher configuration. See below for an example.

TernJS plugin: Meteor

UPDATE: All definitions were update to Meteor 1.0.4. There are probably some bugs since this project moved to definitions autogeneration, if you notice any API mismatch, report in the issues.

This is a plugin for TernJS bringing support for Meteor JavaScript Framework. Tested on Vim and Sublime Text 2/3, reported to work on Emacs, potentially should work on Brackets, LightTable, Eclipse and any other CodeMirror-based editors.

Checkout my presentation on Meteor Devshop 11: Videos and Slides. The mailing thread for this project is here on meteor-talk.

Demo Video of Vim

You check out my Vim setup which is already optimized for Meteor development: GitHub repo. Or you can get it to your setup:

• Install tern-vim plugin with your favorite package manager for Vim.
• cd to .vim folder, tern_for_vim plugin folder and run npm install to fetch tern npm module.
• Download meteor.js file (from this repo) to tern's folder tern_for_vim/node_modules/tern/plugins.
• In your Meteor project create a file .tern-project with the contents similar to:

    {
      "libs": [
        "browser",
        "jquery",
        "underscore"
      ],
      "loadEagerly": [ "*.js", "*/*.js", "*/*/*.js", "*/*/*/*.js" ],
      "dontLoad": [ ".meteor" ],
      "plugins": {
        "meteor": {}
      }
    }

Note: ignore files in .meteor folder. Load all JS if possible.
