Currently, the bundle has shortcuts and snippets for:

  • Template module positions
  • Template XML structure
  • Miscellaneous template tags
  • Controller template, toolbar template, etc.
  • A few commonly used snippets from the JPATH, JTable, JFactory, and JRequest super-classes.

My goal for the joomla textmate bundle is to encompass a large portion of Joomla’s framework in it (or at least the most commonly used portions).  I would love for someone to help out with it.  Currently it is hosted with Google Code, so go forth and download!

Some great shortcuts include:

  • Type module and hit TAB and you’ll get some module position options
  • Type jhead and hit TAB and you’ll get a leaned down HEAD section
  • Type query and hit TAB to form a database object and query
  • …much more.

Here’s a video showing off some of the features:
