How can I jump to class/method definition in Atom text editor?

I had the same issue and atom-goto-definition (package name goto-definition) worked like charm for me. Please try once. You can download directly from Atom.

This package is DEPRECATED. Please check it in Github.


I also had the same problem. And I find the solution:

CTRL+ALT+G

Update:

Thanks to @Joost, install Atom package python-tools to make it work


I believe the problem with "go to" packages is that they would work diferently for each language.

If you use Javascript js-hyperclick and hyperclick (since code-links is deprecated) may do what you need.

Use symbols-view package which let your search and jump to functions declaration but just of current opened file. Unfortunately, I don't know of any other language's equivalent.

There is also another package which could be useful for go-to in Python: python-tools

As of May 2016, recent version of Atom now support "Go-To" natively. At the GitHub repo for this module you get a list of the following keys:

  • symbols-view:toggle-file-symbols to Show all symbols in current file
  • symbols-view:toggle-project-symbols to Show all symbols in the project
  • symbols-view:go-to-declaration to Jump to the symbol under the cursor
  • symbols-view:return-from-declaration to Return from the jump

I now only have one thing missing with Atom for this: mouse click bindings. There's an open issue on Github if anyone want to follow that feature.
