Atom package and Language Server providing support for editing application.properties and application.yml files containing Spring Boot configuration properties.

Installation:

Install it from Atom Install Packages, search for boot-properties

Usage:

The extension will automatically activate when you edit files with the following name patterns:

application.properties => activates support for .properties file format.
application.yml => activates support for .yml file format.

For all other files select grammar to be Spring-Boot-Properties for properties file format or Spring-Boot-Properties-YAML for 'YAML' file format

Developer notes

Bulding and Running

To build all these pieces you normally only need to run:

npm install

Now you can link it to Atom:

apm link .

Open Atom or execute Refresh Window in the opened instance (Packages -> Command Palette -> Toggle then search for the command).

Debugging

Client Side Debugging: Open Atom's Developer Tools view - View -> Developer -> Toggle Developer Tools

Server Side Debugging: Change launchVmArgs(version) implementation in lib/main.js to be:

    launchVmArgs(version) {
        return Promise.resolve([
            '-Xdebug',
            '-agentlib:jdwp=transport=dt_socket,server=y,address=7999,suspend=n',
            '-Dorg.slf4j.simpleLogger.logFile=boot-properties.log',
            '-Dorg.slf4j.simpleLogger.defaultLogLevel=debug',
        ]);
    }

(Then setup the remote debugger from your IDE on the same port 7999)
