Скачать или смотреть [P101-10] Taking a deeper dive into Sublime Text input handlers

It can often be necessary to gather some input from a user in order for a command to know what exactly it should do. However we know that commands take explicit arguments, so how do we gather this kind of information? The answer is Input Handlers.

Sublime Text allows commands to prompt the user for the values of missing arguments in a free form manner, allowing for gathering arbitrary strings of text, choosing items from a list, doing input validation and even providing a preview of what the command can do.

In this lesson, we take a deeper dive into Input Handlers in Sublime Text and take a look at the methods we can use in our handlers to control things like placeholder text, initial values and even how to perform input validation.
