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 ./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.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Install

|
||
|
|

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 .
|
||
|
|
