Abandoned? #287

Closed SampsonCrowley closed 3 years ago

SampsonCrowley commented 4 years ago

Is this package abandoned? There haven't been any updates for 7+ months, pull requests that have been open since 2018, and none of the issues that I've looked at have received any response from maintainers

Rockster160 commented 4 years ago

Hope not. I imagine this is a well used package. Been having a lot of syntax highlighting issues lately. 🙁

SampsonCrowley commented 4 years ago

@Rockster160 yet still can't even get a "No we're just busy" from maintainers

Any updates that you are aware?

Anyone knows alternatives to language-ruby as the colours in Ruby syntax are broken? So Ruby can't be used in Atom.

Almost all my code is in grey, because of .gsub(%r{#{diff_string}}, '') at least.

I had to switch my favourite Atom editor to Virtual Studio Code until it's solved or I will get comfortable with VS so Atom will not be needed.

As I see, last merge was on 31 Oct 2019 and new ones are not just merged. So sadly it was left in unusable state 1 year and 3 months ago.

That is a how to migrate to language-ruby-on-rails. So at least no issues with colours.

1) Install language-ruby-on-rails package in Atom

2) Change syntax checker for .rb files from language-ruby to language-ruby-on-rails

Edit ~/.atom/config.cson

"*":
  core:
    customFileTypes:
      "source.ruby.rails": [
        "rb"
      ]

3) Restart Atom

SampsonCrowley commented 3 years ago

Language ruby-on-rails is a worse package in my opinion a lot of the time, the chosen colors are terrible, and another specialized package doesn't change that this package was just abandoned with no reason or warning

Please don't make the Atom people ignore this more just because rails has their own version
