==============================================================================
INTRODUCTION                                   *sonictemplate-vim-introduction*

|SonicTemplate| is easy and high speed coding method.

 * Choose template for the filetype
 * Few typings.
 * Flexible customization.

==============================================================================
INSTALL                                             *sonictemplate-vim-install*

Install the distributed files into Vim runtime directory which is usually
~/.vim/, or $HOME/vimfiles on Windows.

If you install pathogen that provided from Tim Pope, you should extract the
file into 'bundle' directory.

==============================================================================
TUTORIAL                                           *sonictemplate-vim-tutorial*

For example, you are writing C++ file.

1. Create main function

  Open new C++ file, and type following.
>
  :Template boost-main
<
  Then you can see following.
>
  #include <iostream>
  #include <string>
  #include <boost/foreach.hpp>

  int
  main(int argc, char* argv[]) {
      _
      return 0;
  }
<
  The cursor is in the position of |_|.

2. Add foreach loop

  Type following.
>
  :Template boost-for
<
  Then you will be asked like following.
>
  variable:
<
  Then type "foo".
>
  #include <iostream>
  #include <string>
  #include <boost/foreach.hpp>

  int
  main(int argc, char* argv[]) {
      BOOST_FOREACH(auto x, foo) {
          _
      }
      return 0;
  }
<
3. Add std::cout << xxx << std::endl;
>
  :Template cout
<
  Answer "x" for the question "string:".
>
  #include <iostream>
  #include <string>
  #include <boost/foreach.hpp>
  
  int
  main(int argc, char* argv[]) {
      BOOST_FOREACH(auto x, foo) {
          std::cout << x << std::endl;
      }
      return 0;
  }
<
==============================================================================
CUSTOMIZE                                         *sonictemplate-vim-customize*

You can modify template directory for your-self templates: >
  let g:sonictemplate_vim_template_dir = '/path/to/your/template/directory'
<
  or >

  let g:sonictemplate_vim_template_dir = [
  \ '$HOME/.vim/template',
  \ '/path/to/another/template/directory'
  \]
<
You can override default template to make same structures. For example, a
default C language template 'main' is like following.
>
  #include <stdio.h>
  
  int
  main(int argc, char* argv[]) {
      {{_cursor_}}
      return 0;
  }

This template is stored in 'sonictemplate-vim/template/c/base-main.c'.
If you store base-main.c in another template directory that is specified
|g:sonictemplate_vim_template_dir|, it will be overrided with your's one.

==============================================================================
UNITE SOURCE                                    *sonictemplate-vim-unitesource*

You can use unite source for sonictemplate. For example,
>
  :Unite sonictemplate
<

==============================================================================
WRITE YOUR TEMPLATE                           *sonictemplate-vim-writetemplate*

Templates are stored in the directory that "g:sonictemplate_vim_template_dir"
variable specified. On unix, directory structure is following.
Note that I'm using pathogen-vim.
>
  ~/.vim/bundle/sonictemplate-vim
      plugin
        sonictemplate.vim
      doc
        sonictemplate.txt
      template
        go                             ... filetype go
          base-main.go                   ... base main
          base-package.go                ... base package
          snip-goroutine.go              ... snippet for goroutine
          ...
        perl                           ... filetype perl
          base-package.pl                ... base package
          base-script.pl                 ... base script
          snip-dbi-connect-sqlite.pl     ... snippet for DBI/SQLite
          ...
        clojure                        ... filetype clojure
          file-project-base.clj          ... file project base
        _                              ... global template
          base-foo.go                    ... base foo
          snip-foo.go                    ... snip foo
<
  Global template '_' can be applied to any filetypes.

1. The filename have following rule.

    |[kind]|-|[name]|.|[extension]|

  |[kind]|  'base' or 'snip' or 'file' should be used.

    'base' is used when buffer is empty.
    'file' should be matched if buffer name is leading as template name.
           For example, "initialize.c" should be expanded template files like
             "file-initialize-qt.c" or "file-initialize-gtk.c".

  |[name]| template name

    Words in the name must join with '-'.

  |[extension]| file name extension like ".c".

    If several extensions are exists in same directory, the first found is used.

2. Template can have some keywords.

  |{{_name_}}|      the filename without extension.

    If you are opening "foo.pl" for perl, {{_name_}} become "foo".

  |{{_cursor_}}|    : cursor position.

    When expanded template, cursor will be moved to there.

  |{{_input_:var}}| : ask the value of "var".

    You'll be asked "var: " in prompt.

  |{{_expr_:xxx}}|  : expression in vimscript.

    For example: "Current Time:|{{_expr_:strftime('%c')}}|" will be
>
    Current Time: 2011/10/27 20:19:00
<
  |{{_if_:expr;foo;bar}}|  : ternary operator

    For example: When today is saturday,
    "Today is |{{_if_:strftime('%w')%6;OrdinaryDay;Holiday}}|" will be
>
    Today is Holiday
<
  |{{_inline_}}|  : inline expand.

    If it's contained, template will be expanded as one line.
    This operator affect to snip templates.

    For example: When type "<c-y>t" on "left _ right" (_ is cursor),
>
      foo
      bar
<
    Above template will be expanded as oneline
>
      left foobar right
<
  |{{_filter_:xxx}}|  : template filter

    If it's contained, some templates are listed prior.
    For example: When `base-helloworld.go` define filter as 'foo', 
    `snip-foo.go` is located first than `snip-bar.go` in the template list
>
      base-helloworld.go
      snip-foo.go
      snip-bar.go
