Html / Css

Html

Code Completion

Html code completion uses the standard Vim code completion mechanism like so:

<ht<Ctrl-X><Ctrl-U>

<html>
  <he<Ctrl-X><Ctrl-U>

<html>
  <head>
    <lin<Ctrl-X><Ctrl-U>

<html>
  <head>
    <link ty<Ctrl-X><Ctrl-U>

<html>
  <head>
    <link type
...

File Validation

When editing a html file eclim will default to validating the file when it is written. Any errors will be added to the current window’s location list (:help location-list) and their corresponding line number noted via Vim’s sign functionality.

If you do not want your html files validated automatically when saved, you can set the g:EclimHtmlValidate variable described in the configuration section below.

Whether or not auto validation has been enabled, eclim also exposes the command :Validate to manually execute the validation of the file.

Utils

When editing html files eclim provides some utilility commands for your convience.

:BrowserOpen - Opens the current html file in your configured browser.

Configuration

Vim Settings

  • g:EclimHtmlValidate (Default: 1) - If set to 0, disables validation when saving the file.

    Note

    When enabled, syntastic is disabled so that eclim and syntastic don’t step on each other. If you’d like to use syntastic over eclim for validation, then simply disable eclim’s validation.

    If you’d like to disable eclim’s source code validation for all languages, eclim provides a global variable for that as well:

    let g:EclimFileTypeValidate = 0
    
  • g:EclimValidateSortResults (Default: ‘occurrence’) - If set to ‘severity’, the validation results will be sorted by severity (errors > warnings > info > etc.)

Css

bo<Ctrl-X><Ctrl-U>

body {
  font-<Ctr-X><Ctrl-U>

body {
  font-family: sa<Ctrl-X><Ctrl-U>

body {
  font-family: sans-serif;
...
