Package complete provides a tool for bash writing bash completion in go, and bash completion for the go command line.
|
||||
|
||||
Writing bash completion scripts is a hard work. This package provides an easy way
|
||||
to create bash completion scripts for any command, and also an easy way to install/uninstall
|
||||
the completion of the command.
|
||||
|
||||
## go command bash completion
|
||||
|
||||
In [gocomplete](./cmd/gocomplete) there is an example for bash completion for the `go` command line.
|
||||
|
||||
This is an example that uses the `complete` package on the `go` command - the `complete` package
|
||||
can also be used to implement any completions, see [Usage](#usage).
|
||||
|
||||
### Install
|
||||
|
||||
1. Type in your shell:
|
||||
|
||||
go get -u github.com/posener/complete/gocomplete
|
||||
gocomplete -install
|
||||
|
||||
2. Restart your shell
|
||||
|
||||
Uninstall by `gocomplete -uninstall`
|
||||
|
||||
### Features
|
||||
|
||||
- Complete `go` command, including sub commands and all flags.
|
||||
- Complete packages names or `.go` files when necessary.
|
||||
- Complete test names after `-run` flag.
|
||||
|
||||
## complete package
|
||||
|
||||
Supported shells:
|
||||
|
||||
- [x] bash
|
||||
- [x] zsh
|
||||
- [x] fish
|
||||
|
||||
### Usage
|
||||
|
||||
Assuming you have program called `run` and you want to have bash completion
|
||||
for it, meaning, if you type `run` then space, then press the `Tab` key,
|
||||
the shell will suggest relevant complete options.
|
||||
|
||||
In that case, we will create a program called `runcomplete`, a go program,
|
||||
with a `func main()` and so, that will make the completion of the `run`
|
||||
program. Once the `runcomplete` will be in a binary form, we could
|
||||
`runcomplete -install` and that will add to our shell all the bash completion
|
||||
options for `run`.
|
||||
|
||||
So here it is:
|
||||
|
||||
import "github.com/posener/complete"
|
||||
|
||||
func main() {
|
||||
|
||||
// create a Command object, that represents the command we want
|
||||
// to complete.
|
||||
run := complete.Command{
|
||||
|
||||
// Sub defines a list of sub commands of the program,
|
||||
// this is recursive, since every command is of type command also.
|
||||
Sub: complete.Commands{
|
||||
|
||||
// add a build sub command
|
||||
"build": complete.Command {
|
||||
|
||||
// define flags of the build sub command
|
||||
Flags: complete.Flags{
|
||||
// build sub command has a flag '-cpus', which
|
||||
// expects number of cpus after it. in that case
|
||||
// anything could complete this flag.
|
||||
"-cpus": complete.PredictAnything,
|
||||
},
|
||||
},
|
||||
},
|
||||
|
||||
// define flags of the 'run' main command
|
||||
Flags: complete.Flags{
|
||||
// a flag -o, which expects a file ending with .out after
|
||||
// it, the tab completion will auto complete for files matching
|
||||
// the given pattern.
|
||||
"-o": complete.PredictFiles("*.out"),
|
||||
},
|
||||
|
||||
// define global flags of the 'run' main command
|
||||
// those will show up also when a sub command was entered in the
|
||||
// command line
|
||||
GlobalFlags: complete.Flags{
|
||||
|
||||
// a flag '-h' which does not expects anything after it
|
||||
"-h": complete.PredictNothing,
|
||||
},
|
||||
}
|
||||
|
||||
// run the command completion, as part of the main() function.
|
||||
// this triggers the autocompletion when needed.
|
||||
// name must be exactly as the binary that we want to complete.
|
||||
complete.New("run", run).Run()
|
||||
}
|
||||
|
||||
### Self completing program
|
||||
|
||||
In case that the program that we want to complete is written in go we
|
||||
can make it self completing.
|
||||
|
||||
Here is an [example](./example/self/main.go)
|
||||
|
||||
## Sub Packages
|
||||
|
||||
* [cmd](./cmd): Package cmd used for command line options for the complete tool
|
||||
|
||||
* [gocomplete](./gocomplete): Package main is complete tool for the go command line
|
||||
|
||||
* [match](./match)
