Firstly, great tool!

Hi, How can I turn off argument completion? I would prefer filenames/directories to be shown instead.

Second question: I loose some key bindings when I invoke ble.sh. For example I am on a mac (with iterm) and use ALT+DELETE to delete a previous word. This is disabled when I use ble.sh

This is probably a dumb issue. I wanted to link some spec files so that carapace will auto-load them, and I assumed ${UserConfigDir} was going to be $E:XDG_CONFIG_HOME which is ~/.config at least on my machine. So I soft linked two yaml files into ~/.config/carapace/specs/ but on restarting elvish I do not get those completions. The files are named after the commands, e.g. pandocomatic.yaml as the release notes specified.

I am bit confused how the relation of carapace-bin is to other completion frameworks like bash-completion, fzf or bleh.sh. Is it supposed to be an addition to them or does it replace them complete? So far I saw no compatibility issues with bash-completion or fzf since it overwrites their handling but ble.sh breaks at least chmod and the result is chmod '0 (none)' carapace-bin_0.9.1_Linux_x86_64.tar.gz.

macOS with zsh 5.8.1

when invoking the completion for aws I am receiving the following error:

ERR -- exec: "python": executable file not found in $PATH  _

macOS recently removed the deprecated Python 2.7 which it came bundled with. Now python is unbound by default.

I also tried symlinking python3 (Python 3.9 installed through Homebrew) to python, then I am receiving

ERR -- Traceback (most recent call last):  _

Please let me know if you need anything else to debug this issue.

First of all let me say I am totally amazed by carapace. I discovered it thanks to your PR https://github.com/cli/cli/pull/2728# and was blown away when I discovered what it can do.

One minor thing I'd like to ask/request is how to change the format used for the descriptions?

In my ZSH setup using the standard completion source (e.g. for gh) the descriptions are separated by --, which I like.

After loading carapace (source <(carapace gh zsh)) the descriptions change to this format (using parentheses)

If possible I'd like to keep my existing description format so that it stays uniform across different commands.

Here's my zshrc for reference: https://github.com/disrupted/dotfiles/blob/4957c485b2b7bf2a73af9393bf8d599fd6afbfec/.zshrc

Use pulumi stack export instead of pulumi stack --show-urns to get the resources' urns. The former outputs a json, whereas the latter outputs a table (maybe more user friendly?).

I think there was an additional carapace.ActionCallback(...) call as well. Or was it intentional? The current implementation does not work for me; it completes with the single entry urn.

$ carapace pacman nushell pacman -R fil | jaq
[
    {"value": "filERR", "description": "unknown shorthand flag: 'R' in -R"},
    {"value": "fil_"}
]

Similar for other commands

Pressing the tab key after the ~ (tilde) symbol adds a \ (backslash) in front of the tilde symbol

• macOS
  • default terminal
• zsh setup
  • romkatv/zsh4humans

to reproduce

1. Type mv ~/
2. Press the tab key
3. a backslash appears before the tilde symbol
4. see GIF below for more clarity

PS: Found out about this repo from a post in the cli/cli repo. Besides the ~ (tilde) issue very happy with it.

tmux has a large number of commands:

https://man.openbsd.org/tmux#COMMANDS

Currently carapace only completes the small number of flags, and it would be great to get the main commands to complete (they do at least in zsh). I do realise it is a complex command to support!

with increasing amount of completers might need to use yaegi to only initialize the needed command (assuming all init methods are called on invokation - need to check this)

In general spec files are fairly straight-forwards to understand, but I was wondering exactly what pos1 and pos2 do in the example yaml you show?

  positional:
  -  ["pos1", "pos2"]
  -  ["$_files"]

additional to ~/.config/carapace/spec support a system-wide folder (e.g. /usr/share/carapace/specs)

preference:

1. user generated spec (style.Blue)
2. system-wide spec (style.Yellow)
3. embedded completer (style.Default)

Not all completers are applicable for each OS. Use GOOS names: https://golang.org/doc/install/source#environment go:generate and references need to be updated.

e.g.

completers/common (for all, e.g. `git`)
completers/linux
completers/darwin
