Setting up shell tab completion for the infraudit CLI

The infraudit CLI can generate tab-completion scripts for bash, zsh, fish, and PowerShell. Once enabled, pressing Tab completes command names, subcommands, and flags automatically.

Setup

bash
zsh
fish
PowerShell

Load completion for the current session only:

source <(infraudit completion bash)

To enable completion permanently, write the script to your bash completions directory:

infraudit completion bash > /etc/bash_completion.d/infraudit

On some systems the completions directory may be /usr/local/etc/bash_completion.d/ instead. Run pkg-config --variable=completionsdir bash-completion to find the correct path.

Load completion for the current session only:

source <(infraudit completion zsh)

To enable completion permanently, write the completion file to your fpath:

infraudit completion zsh > "${fpath[1]}/_infraudit"

Then add the following to your ~/.zshrc if compinit is not already called:

autoload -U compinit && compinit

Load completion for the current session only:

infraudit completion fish | source

To enable completion permanently, write the completion file to your fish completions directory:

infraudit completion fish > ~/.config/fish/completions/infraudit.fish

Load completion for the current session:

infraudit completion powershell | Out-String | Invoke-Expression

To enable completion permanently, add the above line to your PowerShell profile ($PROFILE).

Applying changes

After writing a permanent completion file, reload your shell configuration or open a new terminal session:

source ~/.bashrc

source ~/.zshrc

Fish and PowerShell pick up new completion files automatically when you open a new session.
