Description:
------------
In order to write a bash autocompletion program using php, you need two
simple files.
1. bash script
2. php file processing the command and printing it
In this case, the autocomplete works but a "tab" is appended to the
output
making it useless
The php script contains a simple "echo".
If I print the echo in python or ruby, it works properly (no tabs
appended) and
each time I press tab the command is printed.
That's how it should work for php as well.
Test script:
---------------
scriptPath='/home/hassen/workspace/scripts/bin/test.php'
_dda()
{
local cur
COMPREPLY=()
unset COMP_WORDS[0] #remove "j" from the array
cur=${COMP_WORDS[*]}
IFS=$'\n\n' read -d '' -a COMPREPLY < <($scriptPath --completion
"$cur")
return 0
}
complete -F _dda dda
alias dda=$scriptPath
----
test.php
<?php
echo "hello";
?>
Expected result:
----------------
"hello" should be appended each time I press "TAB"
Actual result:
--------------
Tabs are appended
