eswap

eswap-mode is a minor mode for toggling between src and target files. The mode just toggle path of the current buffer file.

To use eswap-mode, make sure that this file is in Emacs load-path

(add-to-list 'load-path "/path/to/directory/")

Then require eswap-mode

(require 'eswap-mode)

To start eswap-mode

(deswap-mode t) or M-x eswap-mode

eswap-mode is buffer local, so hook it up

(add-hook 'python-mode-hook 'eswap-mode)

Or use the global mode to activate it in all buffers.

(eswap-global-mode t)

eswap-mode stores a list eswap-except-modes of modes in which eswap-mode should not be activated in (note, only if you use the global mode) because of conflicting use.

You can add new except modes:

(add-to-list 'eswap-except-modes 'conflicting-mode)

eswap-mode need to know about the path of your source and target files please replace the path of the eswap-toggle-path-alist variable

(setq eswap-toggle-path-alist ;; (srcPath . targetPath )
      (quote
      (("/path/to/root/of/project1/src/files" . "/path/to/root/of/project1/target/files")
      ("/path/to/root/of/project2/src/files" . "/path/to/root/of/project2/target/files")
      ;; ("" . "") ;;...
      )))

example:

* source path is /path/to/my/sourceDir/subdir1/subdir2/fileName
* target path is /path/to/my/targetDir/subdir1/subdir2/fileName

	(setq eswap-toggle-path-alist
	  (quote
       (("/path/to/my/sourceDir" . "path/to/my/targetDir"))))
