Key binding context to only react on e.g. Python code

What do I have to put into the context list to only have my key binding react on scope source.python?
I want to bind the same key to somewhat similar scripts but for different languages (e.g. Python, PHP, XML, Bash).

It's the "selector" argument, in ST2 simply put this line in your context block:

{ "key": "selector", "operator": "equal", "operand": "source.python" }
Like this?

{ "keys": ["ctrl+alt+shift+t"], "command": "python_tidy", "context":
[
{ "key": "selector", "operator": "equal", "operand": "source.python" }
]
},
Yes, exactly.
This an example from a file I currently use:
[
{ "keys": ["alt+o"], "command": "switch_file", "args": {"extensions": ["pas", "dfm"]}, "context":
[
{ "key": "selector", "operator": "equal", "operand": "source.pascal" }
]
},
{ "keys": ["ctrl+shift+r"], "command": "delphi_switch_head_body", "context":
[
{ "key": "selector", "operator": "equal", "operand": "source.pascal" }
]
}
]

For me it doesn't work :(. It seems like the context has no effect.
It work for me at least on Build 2025 on Windows 7 64.
Do you mean that the keymap is always called whatever the current file edited ?

Are you sure the keymap file is loaded ?
Are you sure you don't redefined the keymap somewhere else ? (try to call somtehing else)

Ok. Let's see. I have 2025 on OSX 10.6.6.

In my user defined keybindings I have:

{ "keys": ["ctrl+alt+shift+t"], "command": "python_tidy", "context":
[
{ "key": "selector", "operator": "equal", "operand": "source.python" }
]
},
{ "keys": ["ctrl+alt+shift+t"], "command": "perl_tidy", "context":
[
{ "key": "selector", "operator": "equal", "operand": "source.perl" }
]
},

These are not bound anywhere else.
When hitting save I can see that sublime reloads my two keymap files.

So here's what I discovered so far:
1. After starting sublime, I can go into any file and hit the key combo to invoke python_tidy - regardless of the file type/ext/syntax.
2. I add a prefix to the commands like "xxx" so that they won't work anymore and hit save.
3. When hitting the combo I get a strange letter in the view. Sounds deactivated. The console throws a proper error message.
4. I remove the prefix from the commands and hit save.
5. When hitting the combo they react as intended and not in every file (e.g. python-file -> python_tidy, perl-file -> perl_tidy, anywhere else -> strange letter).
Well, I think this look like a bug.
Only Jon or someone with OSX could help you.

Good luck.

So my solution for disabling a key binding when no context should match is another entry:

{ "keys": ["ctrl+alt+shift+t"], "command": "", "context":
[
{ "key": "selector", "operator": "not_equal", "operand": "source.python" },
{ "key": "selector", "operator": "not_equal", "operand": "source.perl" }
]
},

This effectively disables the binding when not in python or perl code.

Jon, should I open a bug entry for this?

I am facing the same bug. This keymap is active on all types of files, so the context is not working.


{ "keys": ["super+shift+x"], "command": "something_cool", "context" : [ { "key": "selector", "operator": "equal", "operand": "source.ruby", "match_all": true } ]}

I'm experiencing the same issue (ST 2.0.1 build 2217 on 32-bit Win7). I created a keybinding for auto-doubling percent signs (%) in AutoHotkey and dos batch scripts. However, it shows up in most/all files. Here's my code:

// Auto-pair brackets
{ "keys": ["%"], "command": "insert_snippet", "args": {"contents": "%$0%"}, "context":
	[
		{ "key": "setting.auto_match_enabled", "operator": "equal", "operand": true },
		{ "key": "selection_empty", "operator": "equal", "operand": true, "match_all": true },
		{ "key": "following_text", "operator": "regex_contains", "operand": "^(?:\t| |\\)|]|;|\\}|$)", "match_all": true },
		{ "key": "selector", "operator": "equal", "operand": [
			{"key": "source.dosbatch"}, {"key": "source.ahk"} 
		]}
	]
},
