CH-COMPLETION.BASH(7) Charliecloud CH-COMPLETION.BASH(7)

NAME

ch-completion.bash - Tab completion for the Charliecloud command line

SYNOPSIS

$ source ch-completion.bash


DESCRIPTION

ch-completion.bash provides tab completion for the charliecloud command line. Currently, tab completion is available for Bash users for the executables ch-image, ch-run, and ch-convert.

We do not currently install the file if Charliecloud is built from source (see issue #1842). In this case, source it from the Charliecloud source code:

$ source $CHARLIECLOUD_SOURCE_PATH/bin/ch-completion.bash


If you installed with a distribution package, the procedure is probably nicer. See your distro’s docs if you installed a package.)

Disable completion with the utility function ch-completion added to your environment when the above is sourced:

$ ch-completion --disable


DEPENDENCIES

Tab completion has these additional dependencies:

  • Bash ≥ 4.3.0
  • bash-completion library (GitHub, or it probably comes with your distribution, e.g.)

CH-COMPLETION

Utility function for ch-completion.bash.

Synopsis

$ ch-completion [ OPTIONS ]


Description

ch-completion is a function to manage Charliecloud’s tab completion. It is added to the environment when completion is sourced. The option(s) given specify what to do:

Disable tab completion for all Charliecloud executables.
Print help message.
Print version of tab completion that’s currently enabled.
Verify that tab completion version is consistent with that of ch-image.

DEBUGGING

Tab completion can write debugging logs to /tmp/ch-completion.log. Enable this by setting the environment variable CH_COMPLETION_DEBUG. (This is primarily intended for developers.)
