open-in-atom
Open a file in Atom from the terminal without lag 🏎️
This package lets you open files from the command line. Atom already lets you do this with their atom
CLI helper, but this one is freaking instantaneously fast.
Installation
Install open-in-atom-cli bin using npm or yarn:
npm install -g open-in-atom-cli
yarn global add open-in-atom-cli
(Alternatively, you can just copy the shell script
open-in-atom
to your PATH.)
Then install the companion Atom package, open-in-atom-pkg:
apm install open-in-atom-pkg
Usage
Use open-in-atom <file>
in your terminal. It will open your files instantly, instead of waiting 5 seconds for the official Atom CLI.
# Open a file
open-in-atom README.md
# Open a directory
open-in-atom .
# Open a directory and some files under it
open-in-atom . README.md package.json
Using with other apps
You can set atom-open as your EDITOR for some apps. Here it is working with ranger (eg, EDITOR=open-in-atom ranger
):
