ropemacs 0.5c6

An emacs mode for using rope refactoring library

Ropemacs is an emacs mode that uses rope library to provide features like refactorings and code-assists. You should install rope library and pymacs before using ropemacs.

New Features

• added ropemacs minor mode

• supporting maxfixes option in rope-goto-definition and rope-show-doc

• added ropemacs-separate-doc-buffer variable

• added ropemacs-max-doc-buffer-height variable

• added rope-show-call-doc command

• added ropemacs menu

• supporting in_hierarchy option of find_occurrences

• added rope-analyze-module command

rope-show-call-doc command shows the documentation of the surrounding function. For instance calling this command in:

for x in range(2, $

will show builtin range docs (where $ shows cursor position).

rope-analyze-module asks rope to perform static object inference analysis on a module. This command is useful when you have a module that was written without ropemacs (ropemacs automatically performs SOI analysis on changed scopes when saving modules). As a simple example, in:

def f(p):
    print p.upper()

f('test')

Rope won’t know the type of parameter p, if this module is not analyzed (you can test that by calling rope-show-doc on upper). Calling rope-analyze-module forces rope to do so.
