CodePresenter

Sublime Text plugin to help with live coding demonstrations. Select a folder containing code you want to present as a 'live' demo, select a target folder to save your demo code out to, start the code presentation, and impress everyone with your wizardry.

Install

Package Control

The easiest way to install this is with Package Control.

• If you just went and installed Package Control, you probably need to restart Sublime Text before doing this next bit.
• Bring up the Command Palette (Command+Shift+p on OS X, Control+Shift+p on Linux/Windows).
• Select "Package Control: Install Package" (it'll take a few seconds)
• Select CodePresenter when the list appears.

Package Control will automatically keep CodePresenter up to date with the latest version.

Manually

• Clone the repo
• Link the checkout to your Packages directory

Usage:

Basic Usage

• Open or create a project
• Add a folder or select one that exists and has some files
• Add a new empty folder
• Right click on the first folder (in the side bar), and select CodePresenter Actions -> Configure -> Set Source Folder
• Right click on the empty folder (in the side bar), and select CodePresenter Actions -> Configure -> Set Sink Folder
• Right click anywhere in the side bar, and select CodePresenter Actions -> Start Code Presentation (or do this from the command palette)
• Mash that keyboard!

Advanced Usage

• Fixtures : Right click on a folder or file and select CodePresenter Actions -> Configure -> Set Fixture.
  • The file or folder will be copied directly to your Sink without modification or opening a view
  • Fixtures can also be cleared using Clear Fixture
• Multi-Stage : If your source contains multiple folders, you can start the presentation from one of the top level folders.
  • Right click on a folder in the Side Bar and select CodePresenter Actions -> Run Presentation Stage
  • Following stages can be run with Next Stage
  • The presentation can be reset Reset Presentation or Hard Reset Presentation
  • Running Next Stage without first using Run Presentation Stage on a particular folder will start from the first stage
• Fast Forward : Files can start partially written
  • Open a file from your source folder
  • Locate the place where you want to start this file in the presentation
  • Right click and select Code Presenter-> Set Fast Forward Point
  • To clear, right click and select Code Presenter-> Clear Fast Forward Point
• Keyboard Shortcuts:

• Commands for binding are code_presenter_activate, code_presenter_reset, and code_presenter_next_stage

IMPORTANT:

• All files in the sink folder will be destroyed when the presentation is started
• All views in the active window will be closed. Views opened by CodePresenter will be closed without saving changes
• I do not recommend mashing on the enter key; there are currently some issues with that (notably, tab insertion and various macros that occur when the enter key is pressed.)
• This is my first Sublime Text plugin, if you have any feedback about the way it's written, please contact me!
