NAME Complete::Util - General completion routines VERSION This document describes version 0.15 of Complete::Util (from Perl distribution Complete-Util), released on 2014-12-09. DESCRIPTION FUNCTIONS arrayify_answer(%args) -> array Make sure we return completion answer in array form. This is the reverse of "hashify_answer". It accepts a hash or an array. If it receives a hash, will return its "words" key. Arguments ('*' denotes required arguments): * arg* => *array|hash* Return value: (array) complete_array_elem(%args) -> array Complete from array. Will sort the resulting completion list, so you don't have to presort the array. Arguments ('*' denotes required arguments): * array* => *array* * ci => *bool* (default: 0) * word => *str* (default: "") Return value: (array) complete_env(%args) -> array Complete from environment variables. On Windows, environment variable names are all converted to uppercase. You can use case-insensitive option ("ci") to match against original casing. Arguments ('*' denotes required arguments): * ci => *bool* (default: 0) * word => *str* (default: "") Return value: (array) complete_file(%args) -> array Complete file and directory from local filesystem. Arguments ('*' denotes required arguments): * ci => *bool* Case-insensitive matching. * filter => *code|str* Only return items matching this filter. Filter can either be a string or a code. For string filter, you can specify a pipe-separated groups of sequences of these characters: f, d, r, w, x. Dash can appear anywhere in the sequence to mean not/negate. An example: "f" means to only show regular files, "-f" means only show non-regular files, "drwx" means to show only directories which are readable, writable, and executable (cd-able). "wf|wd" means writable regular files or writable directories. For code filter, you supply a coderef. The coderef will be called for each item with these arguments: $name. It should return true if it wants the item to be included. * word => *str* (default: "") Return value: (array) complete_hash_key(%args) -> array Complete from hash keys. Arguments ('*' denotes required arguments): * ci => *bool* (default: 0) * hash* => *hash* * word => *str* (default: "") Return value: (array) complete_program(%args) -> array Complete program name found in PATH. Windows is supported, on Windows PATH will be split using /;/ instead of /:/. Arguments ('*' denotes required arguments): * ci => *bool* * word => *str* (default: "") Return value: (array) hashify_answer(%args) -> hash Make sure we return completion answer in hash form. This function accepts a hash or an array. If it receives an array, will convert the array into `{words=>$ary}' first to make sure the completion answer is in hash form. Then will add keys from "meta" to the hash. Arguments ('*' denotes required arguments): * arg* => *array|hash* * meta => *hash* Metadata (extra keys) for the hash. Return value: (hash) SEE ALSO Complete If you want to do bash tab completion with Perl, take a look at Complete::Bash or Getopt::Long::Complete or Perinci::CmdLine. Other "Complete::*" modules.
