Outputs the completion script to stdout. User adds to their shell profile:
main.exe __complete "partial input" Returns: main.exe autocom
# For bash source <(main.exe completion bash) source <(main.exe completion zsh) For fish main.exe completion fish | source 3. Completion Logic | Context | Suggestions | |---------|-------------| | Top-level | user , logs , config , help , version | | After user | create , delete , list , get | | Flags -- | --name , --role , --help | | Flag values (e.g., --role ) | admin , editor , viewer | | File args | local file/dir paths | | Numbers (e.g., --limit ) | no suggestion (dynamic) | 4. Code Example (using Go + cobra ) If using Cobra, built-in completion works automatically: Outputs the completion script to stdout
Overview Enable shell autocompletion (bash, zsh, fish, PowerShell) for main.exe to suggest commands, flags, subcommands, arguments, and file paths. 1. Command Structure Assumptions Assuming main.exe supports: Code Example (using Go + cobra ) If
main.exe user create --name "John" --role admin main.exe logs fetch --limit 50 A. Generate Completion Script Add a subcommand:
Parse os.Args in a hidden __complete command:
// Add this command cmd := &cobra.Commandpowershell]", Short: "Generate completion script", Run: func(cmd *cobra.Command, args []string) switch args[0] case "bash": cmd.Root().GenBashCompletion(os.Stdout) case "zsh": cmd.Root().GenZshCompletion(os.Stdout) // ... ,
