How to edit and add to HTML autocompletions in ST3? about sublime-undocs

[FichteFoll]

I haven't messed with the HTML package in a while, but iirc the html completions were provided by a plugin, html_completions.py respectively. You might want to look into that file.

Fortunately there are docs available on this topic:
http://docs.sublimetext.info/en/latest/extensibility/plugins.html#another-plugin-example-feeding-the-completions-list
http://docs.sublimetext.info/en/latest/reference/api.html#sublime_plugin.EventListener.on_query_completions

Thanks for getting back to me. The html_completions.py file certainly looks promising. Once I have edited it, what should I do with it, put it into my /packages/user folder?

BTW I looked at the documents you listed but at my stage of knowledge they don't really convey anything to me, something simpler would be appreciated. I know they seem easy to understand once you understand them, but coming to them as a novice is like reading a foreign language for the first time.

Thanks for your help!

Kind regards - David

Put it into Packages/HTML, it will then override the archived version and get loaded instead.

If you are not familiar with Python, the ST API docs are not a place to learn it. Check out http://learnpythonthehardway.org/ (which is more suited for absolute beginners) or google for a small introduction tutorial more of your liking.

Editing the html_completions.py file and saving it in ~/Packages/HTML worked perfectly, thanks.
