compileOnSave about sublime-better-coffeescript

[aponxi]

ah sweet, thank you :) I'll be sure to add this feature

@idpsycho I have added the feature you requested... to be honest the way I wrote the functions for watch-mode, I was able to do it with just two lines :) I have tested it and it works - meaning that it can compile the coffeescript into the same folder.

Now I just saw that you also requested a way to see the error output... I totally missed that, sorry. I will have to patch that soon, right now I want to test the plugin a little bit and see what else needs patching. Would you be kind to test it out and write your own findings too? Also would you like to see any other enhancements to this added? Maybe like building coffee to another dir or something?

I hope you like it :)

Correction:

@idpsycho when compiled if there is an error it shows it in the status pane by default. :)

@aponxi two things

1. I got back after few weeks, and the script seems to be updated - is that how it works? Sublime auto-updates it when you commit it somewhere?
2. Error message is not there, it only says "compilation failed". I had to add it manually again. Am I doing something wrong?

[idpsycho]

Also, when you call CompileCommand from onPostSave, status message is then cleared by actual sublime's Save() function, for that reason, I added timeout to rewrite it. I know it is hack, but I need to know when the compilation fails while I'm developing...

    later = lambda: sublime.status_message(status); print status
    sublime.set_timeout(later, 300)

@idpsycho

1. From what I understand you are talking about the changes I made here and how it was updated on sublime right? When I push the new version to this repository's master branch, it is updated on wbond's package system therefore when you launch sublime text, it auto updates if there's a new version. Now if you had made any differences to the python file in the plugin I would have to assume that it would get replaced by the new version that is published at this repo (Is that what happened?) However I cannot say that for sure that it gets replaced over your locally modified version for I only vaguely remember something like this happening in the past.
2. You are right it only says compilation failed. I will add that it outputs it to the console. However I need to separate printing the error message to the console onSave from onWatch mode so that the console doesn't get cluttered when writing in watch mode or whenever the compilation is printed elsewhere like on a new tab (as in Compile and Display and Watch Mode.
3. I will look into the status message and see how the delay will work.

I appreciate the input, I really do. Thanks!

@aponxi thank you for answers
After using the delayed status message, I've realised i'm not watching status, since the errors are not that frequent. So to make errors stand out I have now added actual error message. Now I won't miss when something is wrong.

 ...else:
        status = 'Coffee FAILED: '+result['err'].splitlines()[0]
        sublime.error_message(status);

@idpsycho you are welcome! I will add this feature asap. However feel free to send a pull request if you wrote a stable solution :)
