This is a guide to manually installing the CakePHP TextMate bundle in the TextMate Windows equivalent E TextEditor.
- Grab all files from the PHP Cake.tmbundle repository. This can be quite the task since you have to download every single file manually. My downloadmanger helped me a bit, but it did not download files with the > character in it (as this character is illegal in filenames under Windows). If you do not want to download all these files your self, I have uploaded a working archive for you.
- Now copy (or extract) the files in your E TextEditor folder under the subfolder \Bundles
- In E TextEditor change the bundle type to HTML (PHP Cake), and you should be off.
Important note: The Cake snippets will only work inside <?php ?> tags! You must have a start tag and an end tag before you can use the Cake bundle.
Also remember to choose “HTML (PHP Cake)” as the layout. Do this in the bottom bar, right next to the line and column displayu.
UPDATE: Available from within “E > Bundles > Edit Bundles > Manage Bundles”. Find PHP Cake and install.
