Implement hyperclick package

[park9140]

Part of Nuclide is the hyperclick package, https://atom.io/packages/hyperclick, it allows for interacting with text in the editor while holding the alt key, via a service.

Some thoughts of things we could implement with this.

• Jump to definition.
• allow quick fixes to define syntax errors they are associated with
  • for example quick fix to implement an interface could be attached to the, the syntax error for a interface not being implemented.

+1 this would be awesome!

Is anyone working on this? would love to see this feature added to atom-typescript.
Never did atom package development, would be lots of work for me to get into this stuff.

This is very nice, but there is a problem using the ctrl-key, since this key is used to make multiple selections/use multiple text cursors in Atom (which is very useful). Maybe it is better to use the alt-key as described in the readme of hyperclick:

• <alt> or <alt-mousemove> underlines clickable text under the mouse.
• <alt-mousedown> performs the action associated with the clickable text.
• <cmd-alt-enter> performs the action on the text under the cursor.

@markogresak Atom Typescript implement hyperclick provider for jump to declaration since version 10.0.1 . You can use alt key that hyperclick mapped.

It seems the ctrl-key is mapped on Windows instead of the alt-key. Submitted a PR to change this behavior: facebookarchive/nuclide#612

I agree with @markvandenbrink about the keymap issue. I'm used to using cmd + click to make multiple selections.

Is this also only supposed to work with typescript files? Seem to see the white hyperclick underline in every file type I'm in when holding down cmd which makes this feature buggy.

If i'm not mistaken, the integration is gone again with atom typescript v11? 😅

[guncha]

@robofish, it sure is. Command+click is also used to place multiple cursors and if hyperclick is only used for jumping to the definition, I didn't see the point in keeping it since clicking on the symbol and pressing F12 is very close, though I agree that switching from the mouse to the keyboard is not perfect. I might be convinced that it make sense to use with quickfixes though.

Hyperclick added an option to change which modifier(s) is used, so that it doesn't have to interfere with multiple cursors. I'd also ask that the integration be added back.

I implemented this and made a pull request, which you can test if you want: #1265
