autohide-tree-view package

Hide the tree view, show it on hover.

Config

setting	type	unit	default	description
showOn	string	none	hover	The type of event that should trigger show/hide of the tree view. Hover, Click, Touch (or any combination) or None.
animate	boolean	none	true	Enable/disable the animation when showing the menu
showDelay	number	seconds	0.2	The delay before the tree view will show when hovered
hideDelay	number	seconds	0.2	The delay before the tree view will hide when hovered
minwidth	integer	pixels	1	The width of the hidden tree view
pushEditor	boolean	none	false	Push the editor when showing the tree view
hoverAreasize	integer	pixels	0	Width of an invisible area at the edge of the screen where hover events will be triggered. When smaller than the value of the minwidth setting, minwidth will be used.
touchAreaSize	integer	pixels	50	Width of an invisible area at the edge of the screen where touch events will be triggered.
maxWindowWidth	integer	pixels	0	Max window width for which autohide should be enabled. If on a resize the window width crosses this threshold, autohide will automatically be enabled or disabled. Set to 0 to always have autohide enabled.
showPinButton	boolean	none	true	Show a pin button in the tree view that enables/disables autohide.
autoFocusTreeViewOnHover	boolean	none	true	Focus and unfocus the tree view on hover events. This setting exists because some people were experiencing issues with the tree view's add/rename dialogs where the dialogs would close almost immediately after opening. See #28 for more details.

Touch events

Show/hide the tree view with swiping gestures. For touch events, the atom-touch-events package is required. You'll have to re-enable autohide-tree-view, or reload Atom, after installing atom-touch-events for the touch events to work.

Services provided

autohide-tree-view provides a service for Show, Hide, Enable and Disable actions. To consume the service, put the following in your package's package.json:

"consumedServices": {
  "autohide-tree-view": {
    "versions": {
      // refers to the consumer method in your package's main module
      "^0.24.0": "consumeAutohideTreeViewService"
    }
  }
}

And in your package's main module, put this:

consumeAutohideTreeViewService: (service) ->
  # show/hide the tree view
  # @param delay: delay in ms before starting the animation
  service.show(delay)
  service.hide(delay)
  service.isVisible()

  # enable/disable autohide behaviour
  service.pin()
  service.unpin()
  service.isPinned()

The show, hide, pin and unpin methods return a promise that will be resolved once the tree view animation is done. It's resolved value is a boolean, indicating if the animation was finished (true) or cancelled (false). The promise is rejected if an error occurs during the animation.

isVisible and isPinned return a boolean, indicating whether the tree view is visible or pinned.

A silly example:

// open the tree view, and hide it again if
// it wasn't cancelled
function consumeAutohideTreeViewService(service) {
  service.show(0).then(function(finished) {
    if(finished) {
      service.hide();
    }
  }, function(err) {
    // something went wrong!!
    console.error(err);
  });
}
