About

P6Dx provides a platform for leveraging language workflow tools in any text editor. The included p6dx bin script provides several flags with easy access to:

Code completions (per file, per package, even required packages)
Syntax checking (cascading rule declarations)
And more? (Code coverage? ctags? let me know!)

Usage

Install

panda install p6dx

zef install p6dx

Config

Mostly TBD. You will be able to specify syntax rules in either a user's home folder, the project's base path, a manually supplied file, or via a special comment syntax.

Command Line

p6dx # displays help
p6dx --complete="$part_of_string" --file=$file_or_dir # completions
p6dx --tags --json # prints json format of all tags
p6dx --tags --ctag # prints ctag representation
p6dx --examine=$file_or_dir # syntax check [NOT YET IMPLEMENTED]

Editors

Currently no editors are using P6Dx, however after I've finalized some of the data design, I plan to integrate this into linter-perl6 for Atom Editor and then I'll try my hand at writing a Gedit plugin.

Contributing

I'm gonna try and keep some high-level issues for each feature. Right now, I mostly need help hashing out conventions and solving bugs in my really early code. Feel free to submit PRs too though!

Ideas

code coverage
ctags generation
code formatter
