Bash completion for pre-commit

Provides command line completion for pre-commit.

This is a "pure" bash shell implementation requiring only grep and sed.

Setup

Get pre-commit.bash.

Source it in your shell

Source it into your shell (.bashrc or .bash_profile):

source path/to/pre-commit.bash
# or
. path/to/pre-commit-completion.bash`

Automatically source it

install.sh will copy the bash completion script to the appropriate directory in your home.

• The path was taken from declare -f __load_completion - it could give you another hint. It is loaded through the _completion_loader() function.
• Global installation may be possible by adding the files to one of these paths:
  • /usr/local/share/bash_completion/completions
  • /usr/share/bash_completion/completions

Debugging

Debugging can be facilitated by calling set -x.
To disable the trace, you can do the opposite: set +x.

"Limitations"

• The hooks are extracted from the pre-commit configuration through a lookup of lines with id: or alias:. There is no actual decoding of yaml. This increases speed and it limits the need for extra tools.

Other

• (Takishima/pre-commit-completion)[https://github.com/Takishima/pre-commit-completion] is another project that provides bash completion. It is based on a compiled C program.
