This completes to `spack concretize`:
```
spack conc<tab>
```
but this still gets hung up on the difference between `concretize` and `concretise`:
```
spack -e . conc<tab>
```
We were checking `"$COMP_CWORD" = 1`, which tracks the word on the command line
including any flags and their args, but we should track `"$COMP_CWORD_NO_FLAGS" = 1` to
figure out if the arg we're completing is the first real command.
Smart alias completion introduced in #39499 wasn't as smart as it needed to be, and
would complete any invalid command prefix and some env names with alias names.
- [x] don't complete aliases if there are no potential completions
e.g., don't convert `spack isnotacommand` -> `spack concretize`
- [x] don't complete with an aliases if we're not looking at a top-level subcommand.
`compgen -W` does not behave the same way in zsh as it does in bash; it seems not to
actually generate the completions we want.
- [x] add a zsh equivalent and `_compgen_w` to abstract it away
- [x] use `_compgen_w` instead of `compgen -W`
Bash completion is now smarter about handling aliases. In particular, if all completions
for some input command are aliased to the same thing, we'll just complete with that thing.
If you've already *typed* the full alias for a command, we'll complete the alias.
So, for example, here there's more than one real command involved, so all aliases are
shown:
```console
$ spack con
concretise concretize config containerise containerize
```
Here, there are two possibilities: `concretise` and `concretize`, but both map to
`concretize` so we just complete that:
```console
$ spack conc
concretize
```
And here, the user has already typed `concretis`, so we just go with it as there is only
one option:
```console
spack concretis
concretise
```
Currently spack is a bit of a bad actor as a zsh plugin, and it was my
fault. The autoload and compinit should really be handled by the user,
as was made abundantly clear when I found spack was doing completion
initialization for *all* of my plugins due to a deferred setup that was
getting messed up by it.
Making this conditional took spack load time from 1.5 seconds (with
module loading disabled) to 0.029 seconds. I can actually afford to load
spack by default with this change in.
Hopefully someday we'll do proper zsh completion support, but for now
this helps a lot.
* use zsh hist expansion in place of dirname
* only run (bash)compinit if compdef/complete missing
* add zsh compiled files to .gitignore
* move changes to .in file, because spack
- [x] add `concretize.lp`, `spack.yaml`, etc. to licensed files
- [x] update all licensed files to say 2013-2021 using
`spack license update-copyright-year`
- [x] appease mypy with some additions to package.py that needed
for oneapi.py
Since zsh can load bash completion files natively, seems reasonable to just turn this on.
The only changes are to switch from `type -t` which zsh doesn't support to using `type`
with a regex and adding a new arm to the sourcing of the completions to allow it to work
for zsh as well as bash.
Could use more bash/dash/etc testing probably, but everything I've thought to try has
worked so far.
Notes:
* unit-test zsh support, fix issues
Specifically fixed word splitting in completion-test, use a different
method to apply sh emulation to zsh loaded bash completion, and fixed
an incompatibility in regex operator quoting requirements.
* compinit now ignores insecure directories
Completion isn't meant to be enabled in non-interactive environments, so
by default compinit will ask the user if they want to ignore insecure
directories or load them anyway. To pass the spack unit tests in GH
actions, this prompt must be disabled, so ignore explicitly until a
better solution can be found.
* debug functions test also requires bash emulation
COMP_WORDS is a bash-ism that zsh doesn't natively support, turn on
emulation for just that section of tests to allow the comparison to
work. Does not change the behavior of the functions themselves since
they are already pinned to sh emulation elsewhere.
* propagate change to .in file
* fix comment and update script based on .in
This PR adds a `--format=bash` option to `spack commands` to
auto-generate the Bash programmable tab completion script. It can be
extended to work for other shells.
Progress:
- [x] Fix bug in superclass initialization in `ArgparseWriter`
- [x] Refactor `ArgparseWriter` (see below)
- [x] Ensure that output of old `--format` options remains the same
- [x] Add `ArgparseCompletionWriter` and `BashCompletionWriter`
- [x] Add `--aliases` option to add command aliases
- [x] Standardize positional argument names
- [x] Tests for `spack commands --format=bash` coverage
- [x] Tests to make sure `spack-completion.bash` stays up-to-date
- [x] Tests for `spack-completion.bash` coverage
- [x] Speed up `spack-completion.bash` by caching subroutine calls
This PR also necessitates a significant refactoring of
`ArgparseWriter`. Previously, `ArgparseWriter` was mostly a single
`_write` method which handled everything from extracting the information
we care about from the parser to formatting the output. Now, `_write`
only handles recursion, while the information extraction is split into a
separate `parse` method, and the formatting is handled by `format`. This
allows subclasses to completely redefine how the format will appear
without overriding all of `_write`.
