I'm running Vim 8.0.124 and I've installed the
[vim-snipmate](https://github.com/garbas/vim-snipmate) plugin to use in my
Python and Django development. I followed the instructions by creating a
.vimrc file that contains the following:
# ~/.vimrc
set nocompatible " Required by Vundle
filetype off " Required by Vundle
" Begin Vundle settings
==========================================================
"
set rtp+=~/.vim/bundle/Vundle.vim
call vundle#begin()
Plugin 'VundleVim/Vundle.vim'
Plugin 'MarcWeber/vim-addon-mw-utils'
Plugin 'tomtom/tlib_vim'
Plugin 'garbas/vim-snipmate'
# Optional
Plugin 'SirVer/ultisnips'
Plugin 'honza/vim-snippets'
call vundle#end()
filetype plugin indent on
"
" End Vundle settings
==========================================================
" SnipMate
autocmd FileType python set ft=python.django
autocmd FileType html set ft=htmldjango.html
" UltiSnips
let g:UltiSnipsExpandTrigger="<tab>"
let g:UltiSnipsJumpForwardTrigger="<c-b>"
let g:UltiSnipsJumpBackwardTrigger="<c-z>"
let g:UltiSnipsEditSplit="vertical"
Installing vim-snipmate includes the creation of these four files:
~/.vim/bundle/vim-snippets/snippets/django.snippets
~/.vim/bundle/vim-snippets/snippets/htmldjango.snippets
~/.vim/bundle/vim-snippets/UltiSnips/django.snippets
~/.vim/bundle/vim-snippets/UltiSnips/htmldjango.snippets
I have two questions. First, why are the UltiSnip Django snippets not working?
The snippets in snippets/django.snippets work but those in the UltiSnips
django.snippets file don't. If I open a file test.py and type "fdate<tab>"
where fdate should expand into a Django DateField, nothing happens (other than
a tab is entered). Initially, when the UltiSnips weren't working, I went to
its Github page and read the instructions which seemed to indicate I should add
the SirVer plugin so I did. Even then, then don't seem to work. I should add
that what you see above is my entire .vimrc file. Also, I created a completely
new ~/.vim directory which only contains the Vundle and vim-snipmate bundles so
there shouldn't be any other conflicts.
My second less important question is, when I view any of these snippet files,
most of the lines are folded. Is there any way I can configure Vim so that
when I open any of these .snippet files, all the folds will be open? They
would be easier to search that way.
