tool to generate bash/zsh completion?

[endel]

is there any?

That falls outside the realm of php and more into the realm of the shell
language as far as I am aware. While you could write php to help with the
autocomplete, in the case of bash at least, it would still require sticking
something in your .bashrc. again afaik.

Yes, but I think it's totally possible to PHP generate the bash completion file, since the necessary definitions are already there.

Completions AFAIK have four main variables:

• COMP_WORDS (array): list of words on the line
• COMP_CWORD (integer): index of current typing word
• COMP_LINE (string): the current commandline
• COMPREPLY (array): reply for completion

The following template provides a very simple completion, just for commands/subcommands and options. Maybe commando could generate that, and leave to the user to create more advanced completions, if necessary.

#!/usr/bin/env bash

__commando()
{
    local cur=${COMP_WORDS[COMP_CWORD]}
    local prev=${COMP_WORDS[COMP_CWORD-1]}

    local first=$(echo $cur | cut -d ':' -f 1)
    local second=$(echo $cur | cut -d ':' -f 2)

    # Going deep on sub-commands.
    case "$first" in
      "subcommand")
        COMPREPLY=( $( compgen -W "sub1 sub2 sub3" -- $second ) )
        return 0
        ;;

      "subcommand2")
        COMPREPLY=( $( compgen -W "cmd1 cmd2 cmd3" -- $second ) )
        return 0
        ;;
    esac

    # All options here
    if [[ "$cur" == -* ]]; then
      COMPREPLY=( $( compgen -W "--all --options --here" -- $cur ) )
      return 0
    fi

    # List of all "top" commands here.
    # Subcommands should be listed on the "case" statement.
    # Sub-commands are separated by ":"
    COMPREPLY=( $(compgen -W "all commands here subcommand: subcommand2:" -- $cur) )
    return 0
}

# zsh compatibility
if [[ -n ${ZSH_VERSION-} ]]; then
  autoload -U +X bashcompinit && bashcompinit
fi

# install "complete" for session
complete -F __commando -o nospace commando-binary

Right. It's the "leave it up to the user" part that feels funky.

If it's kept isolated enough, I'm open to exploring it I suppose.
