Launch Sublime Text 2 from the Mac OS X Terminal

Launch Sublime Text 2 from the Mac OS X Terminal

Sublime Text 2 ships with a CLI called subl (why not "sublime", go figure). This utility is hidden in the following folder (assuming you installed Sublime in /Applications like normal folk. If this following line opens Sublime Text for you, then bingo, you're ready.

open /Applications/Sublime\ Text\ 2.app/Contents/SharedSupport/bin/subl

You can find more (official) details about subl here: http://www.sublimetext.com/docs/2/osx_command_line.html

Installation

#!/usr/bin/env ruby
require 'csv'
require 'json'
if ARGV.size != 2
puts 'Usage: csv_to_json input_file.csv output_file.json'
puts 'This script uses the first line of the csv file as the keys for the JSON properties of the objects'
exit(1)

Register Cocoa app for a custom URL scheme
Here is what you need to do to register your app for a custom URL scheme (for the example we will use a "myapp" scheme).
1) In your Info.plist, add a new entry for CFBundleURLTypes: <key>CFBundleURLTypes</key> <array> <dict> <key>CFBundleURLName</key> <string>MyApp's URL</string> <key>CFBundleURLSchemes</key> <array> <string>myapp</string> </array> </dict> </array>
2) Somewhere in your application's startup code (e.g. init), add this code: - (void)registerMyApp { [[NSAppleEventManager sharedAppleEventManager] setEventHandler:self andSelector:@selector(getUrl:withReplyEvent:) forEventClass:kInternetEventClass andEventID:kAEGetURL]; }
- (void)getUrl:(NSAppleEventDescriptor )event withReplyEvent:(NSAppleEventDescriptor )replyEvent { NSString url = [[event paramDescriptorForKeyword:keyDirectObject] stringValue]; // Now you can parse the URL and perform whatever action is needed }
