FileHeader for Atom

FileHeader allows you to customize, add, update and cooperate your authoring information in header comment like this:

This package is inspired by and could be considered equivalent to FileHeader for Sublime by shiyanhui. It is compatible with headers generated by FileHeader for Sublime.

Installation

Just search for file-header in Atom Settings > Install, and press Install.

Usage

Configure your real name, username and email in FileHeader's settings (cmd+, > Packages > file-header).
Use shift-cmd-H to add new header for current editing file. You can also use menu item from menu bar Packages > File Header or context menu Add File Header to do so. Or, you can turn on Enable Auto Adding Header in the settings to add a header for a new file when you save your the file. When you want to temporarily disable auto update, you can use either menu item or context menu Disable Auto Update, and later, you can use Enable Auto Update to turn the function back on.
Just hit cmd-s to save and your header's last modified info will be automatically updated.

Upgrade

Please reload Atom either by ctrl+alt+cmd+l or restarting after each upgrade

Customise Template

FileHeader came with a pre-defiend language-to-template mappings (lang-mapping.json) and bunch of template files (templates/*). Check them out in the lib directory of FileHeader package. You are free to override or partially override them in your own config directory. Check out the option Config Directory Path from FileHeader settings for details.

Template Variables

Variable	Description
author	the name of the author
email	the email of the author
project_name	the name of the current project
filename	the name of the file
copyright	the copyright text
license	the license statement
create_time	the time the file is created at
last_modified_by	user who last modified the file
last_modified_time	the time the file is last modified at

Language Specific Setting

Apart from general configurations in FileHeader's settings, you can also configure everything language specific directly in your config.cson file (Atom > Open Your Config):

"*":
    "file-header":
        autoAddingHeaderEnabled: true
        email: "..."
        realname: "..."
        username: "paulloz"
".gfm.source":
    "file-header":
        username: "..."
        autoAddingHeaderEnabled: false
".plain.text":
    "file-header":
        autoAddingHeaderEnabled: true

For all configurable options, please have a look of config object in source code file-header.coffee.

You can find out the scope of current editing file using alt-cmd-p. For all supported language scopes, you can use following code in Developer Tools:

console.log(Object.keys(atom.grammars.grammarsByScopeName).join('\n'))

Developer Tools can be opened using alt-cmd-i. You can use file-types package by execjosh to map more file types to language scopes.
