It's a clone of the 'Try CoffeeScript' functionality from the CoffeeScript website, for the Google Chrome browser developer tools.
It's a bit lame on the features at the moment, but here they are...
- Typing CoffeeScript in the editor panel (left) compiles to JavaScript directly in the right panel
- Press
ctrl + i
to inject from the editor pane into the active tab - Syntax highlighting (via CodeMirror)
Download the latest version here (It's the *.crx
files you're after).
Or just install it as an unpacked extension, the details to do that are here
To build just run the following from the base directory, which will create you the .crx
extension to install into chrome
./build.sh
- Show responses to commands injected simular to Chromes console panel.
- History support
- Can we pass forward all the
$0
,copy()
etc... commands??? - Implement js2coffee for reverse compile
The project uses the branching model outlined here, so basically do any commits on the develop branch. There's also a tool called gitflow which helps with this branching model. Also note you'll have to run the following to compile the coffeescript during development
coffee --watch -c js
Coffeescript Console uses these awesome open source libs:
- http://codemirror.net - For the editor panes and syntax highlighting
- http://jashkenas.github.com/coffee-script/ - Unsurprisingly
