Jade Schema mode

Font-lock and navigation support for Jade Platform schema files in Emacs.

Navigating a Jade example schema file with jade-schema-mode.

Jade is a platform for developing and operating Windows database applications. Jade is characterised by its deep integration of proprietary components: pretty much everything is Jade's own, including database, application server, programming language, UI builder and - yes - even IDE/text editor.

Whilst Jade applications are always written inside the Jade Platform environment using Jade's own IDE, the schemas that comprise applications can be exported as plain text files and viewed in an editor of your choice. jade-schema-mode provides basic Emacs capabilities for navigating a schema file:

• view-mode for paging through a schema,
• an imenu index for quick navigation to a type's header, definition or sources,
• an outline definition for jumping to named sections in the schema.

Installation

jade-schema-mode is available on MELPA.

M-x package-install jade-schema-mode

Or you can install manually by adding these lines to your config:

(autoload 'jade-schema-mode "/path/to/jade-schema-mode/jade-schema-mode.el" nil t)
(add-to-list 'auto-mode-alist '("\\.scm\\'" . jade-schema-mode))

Testing

This package has tests in the test/ directory. Run the tests with make.

During development it may be more convenient to use M-x ert-run-tests-interactively.
