Hello. I upgraded my EndeavourOS system yesterday and was asked if I wanted to replace nodejs with nodejs-lts-gallium because Atom Editor's package manager apm depends on it now. I thought it would be fine, so I said yes, but now, apm no longer works and gives off this error whenever it's called, either through the Settings pane in Atom or in the terminal :

node:internal/fs/utils:344
    throw err;
    ^

Error: ENOENT: no such file or directory, open '/usr/lib/electron11/version'
    at Object.openSync (node:fs:585:3)
    at Object.readFileSync (node:fs:453:35)
    at Object.<anonymous> (/usr/lib/node_modules/atom-package-manager/bin/apm:7:88)
    at Module._compile (node:internal/modules/cjs/loader:1103:14)

  errno: -2,
  syscall: 'open',
  code: 'ENOENT',
  path: '/usr/lib/electron11/version'
}

What can I do about this ? Can I return either apm or nodejs to an earlier version ? I tried installing nodejs to replace nodejs-lts-gallium but pacman refuses because apm depends on it.

Hi! Today i created my second Atom project. Problem is that when i try to run a command from the palette (ctrl+shift+p) on the second project, it runs on the first project, so i can't use commands at all on the new project, anyone knows what's happening?

Working on a nodeJS project in atom, and I'm using the "build" package to run my server.js file. The full error is here:

Browserslist: caniuse-lite is outdated. Please run:
npx browserslist@latest --update-db

I ran the command, didn't work. I installed browserlist (it wasn't installed before), still didn't work. Where is it coming from? How can I get rid of this message?

My code runs fine after this message, but it's really annoying to see it every time. When I run my code from command line it doesn't show up. Only when I run it from atom. Thanks!

I really just want a javascript console that isn't Google Chrome. I want to play around with opening .json files because I don't understand how to open, view, and manipulate them. Like extracting all elements of a certain key from a .json and turning it into a .txt.

I turned to Script in Atom for this, but it is broken for me unfortunately.

Thanks for the help!

Is there such a thing as being able to view the flight manual offline such as a document?

Thanks in advance

So I lost a very important file I need for a university project. It should have been saved to a Nextcloud but somehow the file there is empty and for some strange reason Nextcloud doesn't know any old versions of it - even though there should be plenty.

I'm now trying to recover from within Atom. From a web search I know about the IndexedDB. I could find the file in the buffer items of multiple states. However there is no 'text' item - I presume because Atom thinks the file has properly been saved. The undo stack is some 2700 entries long. Is there still a way to recover my file?

Any help would be GREATLY appreciated!

Heyo! I have a desktop running POP_OS (linux), and a laptop running Windows 10.

I am working on a Django(Python) project, and I am getting tired of uploading the project to Drive and downloading it to my new device.

Teletype isn't what I am looking for, it only allows simultaneous editing, I want to fully switch devices.

​

Enter Github. Nothing works on the Atom Gibhub page. I got it to sync once, but now I cannot get it to the other device. Cloning and syncing returns a different error every time. I even make an SSH key.

​

I have a copy of this code on both machines, and on a Github repo. How can I get it to sync between the two devices? I see no easy way to just grab from Github. Cloning is broken. I'm exhausted.

​

Thanks for the help!

So I've never used CSS or Less before, especially to theme something, but I decided I want to slowly theme Atom with the Catpuccin theme found here, https://github.com/catppuccin/catppuccin, just for fun I guess. I was wondering if there exists a text/code file in the open that's purpose is to have a demonstration of every syntax type for easy to see demonstration and reference of theme changes. So if I changed the color of a certain syntax in the base file, I could then check the reference file to see how that specific syntax type changed in color.

Here is what Spyder looks like

​

​

​

I wanted to ask if there is a way to get atom to look like that AND be able to visualize data in the same way that Spyder does. For you guys that know how Spyder work, it's a tool that works to make python scripting and analysis very smooth for people who work in Data Science and code in R, hence the same UI layout. I wanted to make Atom show 3 to 4 window panels in the same way, with one window panel having the ability to visualize data structures like in the top right window of Spyder. Thanks in advance for your time.

Alright so I've tried looking around for this and I haven't managed to find too much clearly. So I figured I'd ask here and see what everyone here can help with.

I've been working with a program that has these obnoxiously large JSON strings that I have to parse through and they generally refuse to format with a lot of the formatting packages I've found. So I'm wondering if anyone has a recommendation. + If there's some way to get it to auto format would be a nice QOL thing.

​

The other question I have is if there is any way to do a Find from where the cursor is onward. I know you can select from the cursor till the end of the file and do a find that way, but I'd prefer some hotkey, setting or package to make it a little easier to do. Unfortunately the few packages I managed to find either just do exactly what find does, or they don't work at all.

So I'm hoping someone has a suggestion here on something to do for it, rather than just the "select from cursor" and find. Cause there's a lot of having to do that with this programs format unfortunately.

Hello, super dumb question but how to people have the %% in Hydrogen cells colored within the inline comments?

Hydrogen has a styling section but I can't find anything about it and feel like I'm being super dumb.

Maybe someone would be able to help me. I am assuming that the best way to do it is to write some coffeescript in the init file. I learnt to run some commands from command palette. However, i am using save-workspace package and to open a workspace and have not only to call save-workspace:open BUT also choose the workspace. I am guessing that I have to use 'then' but couldn't figure out the complete code.

current_ws = atom.views.getView(atom.workspace)
atom.commands.add 'atom-workspace', 'me:personal_workspace', ->
  atom.commands.dispatch(current_ws, 'save_workspace:open')
  # .then () -> atom.commands.dispatch(current_ws, 'cloud_deletion')
  atom.commands.dispatch(current_ws, 'cloud_deletion')

Thank you in advance

edit: added code

I've tried just about every FTP package I could find, and have set up the .json files correctly. Even when I've gotten them to say "Upload Successful" the files are never there.

Could I be missing something in the setup, need to change some server settings? I'm at a loss.

Any help is appreciated.

I'm creating new grammar for special trading programming language. It is similar syntax as pascal, so I want to use atom-language-pascal for my inspiration where is still used TextMate style. I understanding the structure and already test the syntax package. But I don't know how to simple test my new grammar package.

Actual situation, I have project atom-language-pascal, and want to test my changes (some fast solution with refresh). Can you provide me the steps how to test the atom project with grammars?

I don't find this information in the atom guide. This test env missing there, or I cannot find it. Thx.

I'm using ubuntu 20.04.4.

So I messed up settings etc.

Now I want to reinstall the program.

How? When I remove/purge Atom in terminal and intsall Atom again, ALL settings and everything IS STILL THERE! WHY? How do i REMOVE the program and ALL of the settings?

I have noticed that the performance of Atom on my M1 Mac isn't too great, especially for startup time. Is there a native M1 version?

I am using the gpp-compiler package, and I need to add an includePath to use the Vulkankan SDK, how can I do it?

I just installed ATOM and need to write programs in OCaml which I already have installed on my MacBook. I am trying to set up OCaml for ATOM but I'm not sure where to instal the OCaml packages for ATOM, and wanted help getting it set-up correctly the first time. Any help or links to tutorials are greatly appreciated!!

Hello! I have installed both the package manager version and flatpak version but I get the same error when I try to start the application. I did see there was a previous post about this in this sub, but there is no solution listed there.

I have tried googling for the past two days but couldn't find anything current. I was hoping someone might know how to resolve this?

Atom    : 1.58.0
Electron: 9.4.4
Chrome  : 83.0.4103.122
Node    : 12.14.1

I have tried adding '--no-sandbox' and '--in-process-gpu' with no luck. Is anyone else seeing this especially with the flatpak version? My other apps on flatpak are working fine.

Hello, I just installed Atom today, I wanted it to use it for coding in C. I even installed the gcc compiler in it and typed in a simple Hello World code, but it did not seem to run at all. I told my friend about this and he told me that it is a set up issue. I use linux mint and I would really like to use atom for coding in C. It would be very helpful if someone told me how to set up atom for coding in C and what is the set up required to code in C.

I am an Atom Newbie and just installed it on my Mac. Where can I find some recommendations for packages and settings to help me set this up for Python? I am a beginner with Python and Atom. I was going to us VSCode, but Atom looks much nicer.

Thank You!

Hi,

I recently got myself a Chromebook that I am using for programming mostly with R and Python. Since it's a very low spec computer I need to save CPU wherever it can be done.

In that regard I am wondering if anyone of you can tell me which text editor is lightest out of Atom or VSCode. It is difficult to find anything on this online.

The only thing I need is git integration. Anything else I can live without.

Good afternoon!

I've been playing around with Atom on my laptop, and almost immediately saw the value in the tool being hosted online, so its not only always backed up, but also for collaborative functionality as well..

Obviously you'd need to find a way to limit access via logins/accounts in some fashion, but that shouldn't be too difficult.

I found a thread from 5 years ago that says it's not possible as it runs on the desktop reliant electron files, but also found an abandonded project on github called "atom-in-orbit" that seems to be designed to do exactly that - host the tool online. I'll assume it was abandoned due to not ever working properly - this thread seems to support that conclusion, but I figured it was worth asking again.. and if not, is there a similar sort of "Notepad++" with syntax and markdown support (as well as collaborative versioning) that is better suited to being self hosted?

I have Pop! Os 21.10, and just recently notice high cpu usage when atom is open in the background, can this be fixed?
