Package complete is everything for bash completion and Go.
|
|
|
|
Writing bash completion scripts is a hard work, usually done in the bash scripting language.
|
|
This package provides:
|
|
|
|
* A library for bash completion for Go programs.
|
|
|
|
* A tool for writing bash completion script in the Go language. For any Go or non Go program.
|
|
|
|
* Bash completion for the `go` command line (See ./gocomplete).
|
|
|
|
* Library for bash-completion enabled flags (See ./compflag).
|
|
|
|
* Enables an easy way to install/uninstall the completion of the command.
|
|
|
|
The library and tools are extensible such that any program can add its one logic, completion types
|
|
or methologies.
|
|
|
|
Go Command Bash Completion
|
|
|
|
./gocomplete is the script 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.
|
|
|
|
Install:
|
|
|
|
1. Type in your shell:
|
|
|
|
go get -u github.com/posener/complete/v2/gocomplete
|
|
COMP_INSTALL=1 gocomplete
|
|
|
|
2. Restart your shell
|
|
|
|
Uninstall by `COMP_UNINSTALL=1 gocomplete`
|
|
|
|
Features:
|
|
|
|
- Complete `go` command, including sub commands and 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
|
|
|
|
The installation of completion for a command line tool is done automatically by this library by
|
|
running the command line tool with the `COMP_INSTALL` environment variable set. Uninstalling the
|
|
completion is similarly done by the `COMP_UNINSTALL` environment variable.
|
|
For example, if a tool called `my-cli` uses this library, the completion can install by running
|
|
`COMP_INSTALL=1 my-cli`.
|
|
|
|
Usage
|
|
|
|
Add bash completion capabilities to any Go program. See ./example/command.
|
|
|
|
import (
|
|
"flag"
|
|
"github.com/posener/complete/v2"
|
|
"github.com/posener/complete/v2/predict"
|
|
)
|
|
var (
|
|
// Add variables to the program.
|
|
name = flag.String("name", "", "")
|
|
something = flag.String("something", "", "")
|
|
nothing = flag.String("nothing", "", "")
|
|
)
|
|
func main() {
|
|
// Create the complete command.
|
|
// Here we define completion values for each flag.
|
|
cmd := &complete.Command{
|
|
Flags: map[string]complete.Predictor{
|
|
"name": predict.Set{"foo", "bar", "foo bar"},
|
|
"something": predict.Something,
|
|
"nothing": predict.Nothing,
|
|
},
|
|
}
|
|
// Run the completion - provide it with the binary name.
|
|
cmd.Complete("my-program")
|
|
// Parse the flags.
|
|
flag.Parse()
|
|
// Program logic...
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
This package also enables to complete flags defined by the standard library `flag` package.
|
|
To use this feature, simply call `complete.CommandLine` before `flag.Parse`. (See ./example/stdlib).
|
|
|
|
import (
|
|
"flag"
|
|
+ "github.com/posener/complete/v2"
|
|
)
|
|
var (
|
|
// Define flags here...
|
|
foo = flag.Bool("foo", false, "")
|
|
)
|
|
func main() {
|
|
// Call command line completion before parsing the flags - provide it with the binary name.
|
|
+ complete.CommandLine("my-program")
|
|
flag.Parse()
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
If flag value completion is desired, it can be done by providing the standard library `flag.Var`
|
|
function a `flag.Value` that also implements the `complete.Predictor` interface. For standard
|
|
flag with values, it is possible to use the `github.com/posener/complete/v2/compflag` package.
|
|
(See ./example/compflag).
|
|
|
|
import (
|
|
"flag"
|
|
+ "github.com/posener/complete/v2"
|
|
+ "github.com/posener/complete/v2/compflag"
|
|
)
|
|
var (
|
|
// Define flags here...
|
|
- foo = flag.Bool("foo", false, "")
|
|
+ foo = compflag.Bool("foo", false, "")
|
|
)
|
|
func main() {
|
|
// Call command line completion before parsing the flags.
|
|
+ complete.CommandLine("my-program")
|
|
flag.Parse()
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
Instead of calling both `complete.CommandLine` and `flag.Parse`, one can call just `compflag.Parse`
|
|
which does them both.
|
|
|
|
Testing
|
|
|
|
For command line bash completion testing use the `complete.Test` function.
