hcloud completion

Output shell completion code for the specified shell

Synopsis

To load completions:

Bash

To load completions into the current shell execute:

source <(hcloud completion bash)

In order to make the completions permanent, append the line above to your .bashrc.

Zsh

If shell completions are not already enabled for your environment need to enable them. Add the following line to your ~/.zshrc file:

autoload -Uz compinit; compinit

To load completions for each session execute the following commands:

mkdir -p ~/.config/hcloud/completion/zsh
hcloud completion zsh > ~/.config/hcloud/completion/zsh/_hcloud

Finally add the following line to your ~/.zshrc file, before you call the compinit function:

fpath+=(~/.config/hcloud/completion/zsh)

In the end your ~/.zshrc file should contain the following two lines in the order given here.

fpath+=(~/.config/hcloud/completion/zsh)
#  ... anything else that needs to be done before compinit
autoload -Uz compinit; compinit
# ...

You will need to start a new shell for this setup to take effect.

hcloud completion fish | source

In order to make the completions permanent execute once:

 hcloud completion fish > ~/.config/fish/completions/hcloud.fish
