NAME Bash::Completion::Plugins::Sqitch - bash completion for Sqitch SYNOPSIS # Will install App::Sqitch and Bash::Completion if they aren't installed $ cpanm Bash::Completion::Plugins::Sqitch; # Add newly created Sqitch Bash::Completion plugin to current session. (See # "SETTING UP AUTO-COMPLETE" to permanently add completions for `sqitch`.) $ eval "$(bash-complete setup)" # Magical tab completion for all things Sqitch! (well, kind of - see below) $ sqitch DESCRIPTION Bash::Completion::Plugins::Sqitch is a Bash::Completion plugin for App::Sqitch. The functionality of this plugin is heavily dependent and modelled around the design of App::Sqitch version 0.9996. As long as App::Sqitch doesn't drastically change, things should be fine. I cannot guarantee that it will work for older versions of App::Sqitch, so update to the latest version if you have any problems. Currently this completion module only returns completions for subcommands (e.g., deploy, verify, revert etc.). It does not return sqitch [options] yet, nor sub-subcommands - I will add them in newer versions. It works by using the App::Sqitch::Command:: namespace to list the sqitch subcommands, and takes advantage of each subcommand providing the Getopt::Long options as accessible methods. As such, this means that the auto-complete candidates should track new subcommands and options that are added or deprecated. Once downside to this is that some of the options that are included in the auto-complete candidate list aren't part of the official $subcommand --help for a particular subcommand. N.B., Sqitch auto-completion works best if you're in the sqitch folder (the one with the sqitch.conf and sqitch.plan in it - which is generally how I use it all the time anyway. EXTRAS Extended auto-complete options are available in certain circumstances. --target $ sqitch target add dev db:pg://username:password@localhost/somedatabase # sqitch.conf ... [target "dev"] uri = db:pg://username:password@localhost/somedatabase ... $ sqitch verify --target When the option --target is recognised anywhere in the list of options, the sqitch.conf file is read, and any targets are returned as candidates. N.B., this extra requires that your cwd is the sqitch directory with the sqitch.plan file. db:pg # .bashrc or .bash_profile # # auto-complete won't work for the [database] with the default # COMP_WORDBREAKS, as such I globally remove `:` and `=`. This isn't for # everyone - but this extra will *not* work without doing it. export COMP_WORDBREAKS=${COMP_WORDBREAKS/:/} export COMP_WORDBREAKS=${COMP_WORDBREAKS/=/} $ sqitch status db:pg: I'm hoping this is more useful in the future because there is a bug with most of the useful sqitch subcommands in that they don't honour the service paramenter in the [database] string. It works for status though! N.B., this currently only works for the pg engine as it uses Pg::ServiceFile to autocomplete the database based on the service names. SETTING UP AUTO-COMPLETE The instructions for setting up Bash::Completion don't work under all Perl environments - particularly plenv . The instructions below should work. bash # Stick this into your .bashrc or .bash_profile eval "$(bash-complete setup)" zsh # Stick this into your .zshrc autoload -U bashcompinit bashcompinit eval "$(bash-complete setup)" AUTHOR Paul Williams COPYRIGHT Copyright 2018- Paul Williams LICENSE This library is free software; you can redistribute it and/or modify it under the same terms as Perl itself.
