# This script is invoked by bash in response to a matching compspec. When
# this happens, bash calls this script using the command shown in the -C
# block of the complete entry, but also appends 3 arguments. They are:
# - The command being used for completion
# - The word being completed
# - The word preceding the completion word.
#
# Here's an example of how you might use this script:
# $ complete -o bashdefault -o default -o nospace -C \
# '/usr/local/bin/gflags_completions.sh --tab_completion_columns $COLUMNS' \
# time env binary_name another_binary [...]
# completion_word_index gets the index of the (N-1)th argument for
# this command line. completion_word gets the actual argument from
# this command line at the (N-1)th position
completion_word_index="$(($# - 1))"
completion_word="${!completion_word_index}"
# TODO(user): Replace this once gflags_completions.cc has
# a bool parameter indicating unambiguously to hijack the process for
# completion purposes.
if [ -z "$completion_word" ]; then
# Until an empty value for the completion word stops being misunderstood
# by binaries, don't actually execute the binary or the process
# won't be hijacked!
exit 0
fi
# binary_index gets the index of the command being completed (which bash
# places in the (N-2)nd position. binary gets the actual command from
# this command line at that (N-2)nd position
binary_index="$(($# - 2))"
binary="${!binary_index}"
# For completions to be universal, we may have setup the compspec to
# trigger on 'harmless pass-through' commands, like 'time' or 'env'.
# If the command being completed is one of those two, we'll need to
# identify the actual command being executed. To do this, we need
# the actual command line that the <TAB> was pressed on. Bash helpfully
# places this in the $COMP_LINE variable.
if [ "$binary" == "time" ] || [ "$binary" == "env" ]; then
# we'll assume that the first 'argument' is actually the
# binary
# TODO(user): This is not perfect - the 'env' command, for instance,
# is allowed to have options between the 'env' and 'the command to
# be executed'. For example, consider:
# $ env FOO="bar" bin/do_something --help<TAB>
# In this case, we'll mistake the FOO="bar" portion as the binary.
# Perhaps we should continuing consuming leading words until we
# either run out of words, or find a word that is a valid file
# marked as executable. I can't think of any reason this wouldn't
# work.
# Break up the 'original command line' (not this script's command line,
# rather the one the <TAB> was pressed on) and find the second word.
