Usage

dochub.vim is enabled by filetype. While editing a supported file, simply place the cursor over a class, property, or method and type JJ. The plugin will then open a new tab in your browser (or a new instance of the browser) to the related docs. That's it.

Documentation	Vim Filetypes
CSS	css, scss
HTML	eruby, html, htmldjango
JavaScript	javascript
PHP	php
Python	python

The wildcards are documentation for DOM and JQuery, since they aren't associated to a filetype they have their own mapping:

• JD for DOM Documentation
• JQ for JQuery Documentation

Configuration

By default, dochub.vim uses the open command for OS X or the xdg-open command for other OSes to look up the docs. You can easily change the command.

For example:

let g:dochub_command='gnome-open'

Furthermore you can choose your own mapping in the following way:

let g:dochub_mapping='<C-h>'
