I would like to get autocomplete suggestions for a command line (e.g. git
)
but through code in nodejs
so basically, I want to write code that given a command line, gets the autocomplete result.
for example: git b
should output bisect blame branch bundle
so far I've tried using shelljs with the following:
shell.exec('git b\t\t', function(code, output){
console.log(output);
})
but I keep getting errors from git. 'b' is not a git command. See 'git --help'.
EDIT
currently I am using solution from: Accessing bash completions for specific commands programmatically
but this solution is very specific to OS and command. I am still interested in a library that will do it for me or some real easy solution.
how to get this done? is there a better way to resolve this?
