sublime-stata

Sublime Text 3 plugin for Stata (13, 14, 15).

Features:

• Improved syntax highlighting (includes SSC commands, Mata, etc.)
• Snippets, autocomplete backticks, etc.
• Build with ctrl+b (or ctrl+shift+b) on Windows (selections or the entire file)
• Navigate through a do-file with ctrl+r (supports programs and sections; which start with // XYZ)

Install

On top of Python and Stata, it needs two extra components:

1. pywin32 (a python package)

   • Source: https://packagecontrol.io/packages/Pywin32

2. Stata Automation

   • Source: https://www.stata.com/automation/#install

Disclaimer:

This package is essentially for my own use. I will most likely accept any pull request, but not implement new features not directly useful for me (i.e. I can accept code that implements OSX support, but I won't write it).

Advanced: building blocks:

This program is modular, so you can use different parts independently.

Stata API

To use stata.py outside of Sublime Text (e.g. from Python), you will need: - https://github.com/mhammond/pywin32/releases (select the correct version; maybe works from pip?)

Note that you might need to run as admin the first time you use it after installing.
