Steps to use

  1. Download SublimeText 3
  2. Install SublimeText's Package Control utility
  3. Install the PackageDev package
    • While in SublimeText:
      • Ctrl + Shift + P
      • Begin typing "Package Control: Install Package" and select that option
      • Begin typing "PackageDev" and select that option (author is guillermooo)
    • If the above doesn't work, you can try installing it directly from here
  4. Close SublimeText
  5. Do one of the following actions below within this folder: ".../SUBLIME_HOME/Packages/User/"
    • Create a new syntax definition file in the proper folder and copy the contents of my file into it
      • Ctrl + Shift + P
      • Begin typing "PackageDev: New JSON Syntax Definition" and select that option
    • Copy my file directly into the proper folder
  6. Open SublimeText & open the syntax definition file (Drools.JSON-tmLanguage)
  7. Convert the JSON-tmLanguage file to a plain tmLanguage
    • Ctrl + Shift + P
    • Begin typing "PackageDev: Convert (YAML, JSON, PList) to..." and select this option when it appears
  8. Set .drl files to open with this new syntax highlighter (if it doesn't automatically do it already)
    • Open a .drl file
    • View > Syntax > Open all with current extension as... > Drools
    • If "Drools" does not appear in the list, the files are likely not in the proper directory
