Example Overflow plugin searches and suggests code snippets based on Stack Overflow.
The plugin will use your query and your current syntax to search Stack Overflow. It will choose the top accepted answers, extract code snippets from them, and let you to choose one of them (from Sublime Text 2).
This plugin uses the SE API package
The suggested method is to use the Sublime Package Manager.
Use one of the following key bindings
- 'Ctrl + o' : to use the selected text (or code) as the search query
- 'Shift + Ctrl + o' : to open a search input panel at the bottom
- use 'Super' instead of 'Ctrl' for OS X
The plugin will open a quick panel with the top results (title and tags from StackOverflow). Upon choosing one of the results a new buffer will open with a pasted code snippet.
Alternatively it is possible to use the Command Palette (Ctrl+Shift+P) instead of the key bindings.
This plugin is in early development and may not work properly (or at all). Its design is still under development (I'm open to suggestions).
