Yasnippet - No snippet tables active/ YASnippet tables empty

Question

In .emacs, I bound the key for yasnippet as,

(define-key yas-minor-mode-map (kbd "C-SPC") 'yas-expand)

In a buffer with python as major mode and yasnippet, autocomplete as minor mode, yasnippet doesn't expand on C-SPC.

Now, i started doubting if there are any snippets available. I did C-c & C-v (or) Visit Snippet File and it gives alarm, No snippet tables active.

How to add snippets to a major mode?

Have a look at "The Condition System" over here: http://capitaomorte.github.io/yasnippet/snippet-expansion.html Is that maybe what you need? — Brian Z, Apr 21 '15 at 07:18
Using "C-SPC" works for me. Did you try expanding other snippets? Maybe type "fd" and see if it expands to a function with a docstring. I think a "class" snippet just doesn't exist, I think it's "cls" instead. — bmag, Apr 21 '15 at 08:37

Looks like, yas-snippets doesn't get loaded by default. Calling yas-reload-all loaded the python snippets. I confirmed, the snippets are loaded by listing them with C-c & C-v. And it works now...

That's true if you aren't using `yas-global-mode`, see http://emacs.stackexchange.com/a/10531/5296 – npostavs Apr 21 '15 at 17:58
yes, i used `M-x yas-minor-mode` inside the buffer... – Madhavan Apr 21 '15 at 20:33
