ContextShellCommand is a Sublime Text plugin, which support dynamic context menu (right-click menu).

By modifying the settings file, users can bind external commands to right-click menu items or shortcuts, so that the corresponding external commands can be executed easily with the right mouse button or shortcuts.

This plugin depends on the dctxmenu plugin. Before installing this plugin, you must install dctxmenu plugin.

The following steps assume that you already have Package Control installed.

1. Copy the URL of this repository: https://github.com/absop/ContextShellCommand
2. Enter into Sublime Text, press down the shortcut Ctrl+Shift+P to enter into Command Palette
3. Input the command pcar(Package Control: Add Repository)
4. Press down the shortcut Ctrl+V, then Enter
5. Using Package Control to install this package
   1. Press down Ctrl+Shift+P
   2. Input pcip(Package Control: Install Package)
   3. Input ContextShellCommand

You can using the command palette to type and execute the command Preferences ContextShellCommand Settings, or click on the main menu (Preferences>Package Settings> ContextShellCommand >Settings), to begin editing the settings.

You can add a menu sub-item to the right-click menu by adding a command-map to the commands entry, which is one of the two setting entires of this plugin, the other is caption.

Here's an example

{
    "caption": "Run Shell Cmd",

    "commands": [
        {
            "caption": "Github Desktop Here",
            "command": ["github.bat", "${file_path}"],
            "shell": true,
            // "show_output_panel": false
        },
        {
            "caption": "Cmder Here",
            "command": ["Cmder.exe", "${file_path}"],
            "shell": true,
            // "show_output_panel": false
        },
        {
            "caption": "List Files",
            "command": ["dir", "${file_path}"],
            "shell": true,
            "platform": "Windows",
            "encoding": "gbk"
        }
    ]
}

Where commands is a list of command-maps.

Each command-map is a dictionary (Dict, or Map), where caption is the title of the corresponding command displayed in the menu, and command is the specific command to be executed. Please refer to the above example to fill in carefully. command can be a string, or a list of strings, the strings of command can contain some variables (reference Sublime Text API documentation, search extract_variables) and these variables will be replaced with their corresponding values when the command is executed.

In addition, command-map supports a optional argument called shell with a boolean value, which defaults to true and is passed to subprocess and is not normally used.

An entry in commands directly corresponds to a menu item. When there are multiple menu items, the menu will be folded and the folded menu will be titled with the value of the caption of the same level as commands. When there is only one command-map in commands, only one top-level menu is added to the right-click menu.

The following screen-shot shows the two menu sub-items were added to the right-click menu with using the example settings above.

By editing your personal keymap file (Preferences>Key Bindings), you can also bind specific external commands to shortcuts, so that you can use shortcuts to execute external commands in Sublime Text. Here's an example

{
    "keys": ["ctrl+alt+t"],
    "command": "execute_shell_command",
    "args": {
        "command": ["Cmder.exe", "\"${file_path}\""],
        "shell": true,
        // "show_output_panel": false
    }
}

You can copy this example and modify the "keys" and "args" entries. The value of "args" is a command-map, except that the caption entry will be ignored.
