Zsh autocompletion not working

Open AnuragThePathak opened this issue 2 years ago • 5 comments

Zsh autocompletion not working in Fedora 35

Hello I was trying to get completions in a cli app. I have followed instructions as provided here. I was trying to use default auto-completion only at this moment. I got the completions working in bash but in zsh it is not working.

I have set the .zshrc file as mentioned here, and the script I have downloaded to source in .zshrc is this one.

Everything seems fine to me, but still when I press tab to get completions I only get to see list of files in the directory only.

@AnuragThePathak Did you replace the $PROG in the zsh autocomplete with the name of your binary ?

I exported the name of the binary as PROG environment variable.

Just a sanity check. Did you export PROG prior to sourcing the completion file?

@AnuragThePathak I tried to reproduce this and I couldnt. I compiled a test app, set PROG to test app name and sourced the zsh_autocomplete file provided in this repo and it worked.

Thanks for the info @dearchap. As of now, the project that needed it is archived, so anyways I am no longer concerned about it.
