Syntax Highlighting for YAML

[electric-m]

Is this feature available or not?
Just in case I am missing it.

@electric-m Syntax highlighting is currently not implemented in the tree-sitter language parser for YAML (https://github.com/ikatyang/tree-sitter-yaml).

None-the-less I had a look at their PRs and found this. I then implemented it on a new branch and it works well.

It is already implemented in CodeEditLanguages and a PR for CodeEditTextView is already in progress. The beta release will implement it in the next few days 😉

Hey @lukepistrol thats great news, thanks for your detailed reply!

[lukepistrol]

Good news: I'll push the changes later today

I am still a bit confused, as I am not seeing any UI elements like shown here .

No Navigator nothing.
Shortcut for Navigator isnt working either, and it is greyed out in the menu bar.

I assume, i have to add CodeEditTextViw manually, since I am on the pre-built 0.1.1 Alpha ?

No, actually you are in single file mode. Open a folder instead to see the navigator, etc…

Syntax highlighting also works in single file mode but it must be saved with the corresponding extension (e.g. *.js) first.

YAML Syntax Highlighting is now supported!
