# Tab Completion Implementation Summary
|
||||
|
||||
## Overview
|
||||
|
||||
Successfully implemented comprehensive bash completion for all backup scripts in the shell repository, providing intelligent tab completion for command-line flags and options.
|
||||
|
||||
## What Was Implemented
|
||||
|
||||
### 1. Bash Completion Script
|
||||
|
||||
- **File**: `completions/backup-scripts-completion.bash`
|
||||
- **Functions**:
|
||||
- `_backup_immich_completion()` - Completion for backup-immich.sh
|
||||
- `_backup_plex_completion()` - Completion for backup-plex.sh
|
||||
- `_backup_media_completion()` - Completion for backup-media.sh
|
||||
- `_backup_generic_completion()` - Fallback for other backup scripts
|
||||
|
||||
### 2. Supported Scripts and Flags
|
||||
|
||||
#### backup-immich.sh
|
||||
|
||||
- `--help`, `-h` - Show help message
|
||||
- `--dry-run` - Preview backup without executing
|
||||
- `--no-upload` - Skip B2 upload (local backup only)
|
||||
- `--verbose` - Enable verbose logging
|
||||
|
||||
#### backup-plex.sh
|
||||
|
||||
- `--help`, `-h` - Show help message
|
||||
- `--auto-repair` - Automatically attempt to repair corrupted databases
|
||||
- `--check-integrity` - Only check database integrity, don't backup
|
||||
- `--non-interactive` - Run in non-interactive mode (for automation)
|
||||
- `--no-parallel` - Disable parallel verification
|
||||
- `--no-performance` - Disable performance monitoring
|
||||
- `--webhook=URL` - Send notifications to webhook URL
|
||||
- `--email=ADDRESS` - Send notifications to email address
|
||||
|
||||
#### backup-media.sh
|
||||
|
||||
- `--help`, `-h` - Show help message
|
||||
- `--dry-run` - Show what would be backed up without doing it
|
||||
- `--no-verify` - Skip backup verification
|
||||
- `--sequential` - Run backups sequentially instead of parallel
|
||||
- `--interactive` - Ask for confirmation before each backup
|
||||
- `--webhook URL` - Custom webhook URL for notifications
|
||||
|
||||
### 3. Advanced Features
|
||||
|
||||
#### Intelligent Argument Completion
|
||||
|
||||
- **Webhook URLs**: Auto-suggests `https://notify.peterwood.rocks/lab`
|
||||
- **Email addresses**: Auto-suggests `peter@peterwood.dev`
|
||||
- **Flag recognition**: Only shows relevant flags for each script
|
||||
|
||||
#### Path-Aware Completion
|
||||
|
||||
- Works with script name only (if in PATH): `backup-immich.sh --<TAB>`
|
||||
- Works with relative paths: `./backup-immich.sh --<TAB>`
|
||||
- Works with absolute paths: `/home/acedanger/shell/immich/backup-immich.sh --<TAB>`
|
||||
|
||||
#### Cross-Shell Support
|
||||
|
||||
- Compatible with bash (native)
|
||||
- Compatible with zsh (via bashcompinit)
|
||||
|
||||
## Integration with Setup System
|
||||
|
||||
### 1. Modified bootstrap.sh
|
||||
|
||||
- Makes completion script executable during clone/update
|
||||
|
||||
### 2. Modified setup.sh
|
||||
|
||||
- Copies completion script to user's local completion directory
|
||||
- Ensures proper permissions
|
||||
- Integrates with zsh configuration
|
||||
|
||||
### 3. Modified .zshrc (dotfiles)
|
||||
|
||||
- Enables bash completion compatibility in zsh
|
||||
- Sources the completion script automatically
|
||||
- Loads on every shell session
|
||||
|
||||
## Installation Process
|
||||
|
||||
### Automatic Installation
|
||||
|
||||
1. Run `./setup/bootstrap.sh` or `./setup/setup.sh`
|
||||
2. Completion is automatically configured and available
|
||||
3. Works immediately in new shell sessions
|
||||
|
||||
### Manual Installation Steps
|
||||
|
||||
1. Copy script: `cp ~/shell/completions/backup-scripts-completion.bash ~/.local/share/bash-completion/completions/`
|
||||
2. Make executable: `chmod +x ~/.local/share/bash-completion/completions/backup-scripts-completion.bash`
|
||||
3. Source in shell: Add `source ~/shell/completions/backup-scripts-completion.bash` to `.zshrc`
|
||||
|
||||
## Testing Results
|
||||
|
||||
Successfully tested all completion functions:
|
||||
|
||||
- ✅ Flag completion for all three main backup scripts
|
||||
- ✅ Webhook URL completion
|
||||
- ✅ Email address completion
|
||||
- ✅ Path-based completion for different invocation methods
|
||||
- ✅ Registration verification with `complete -p | grep backup`
|
||||
- ✅ Integration with existing help functionality
|
||||
|
||||
## Usage Examples
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
# Basic flag completion
|
||||
~/shell/immich/backup-immich.sh --<TAB>
|
||||
# Shows: --help --dry-run --no-upload --verbose
|
||||
|
||||
# Webhook completion
|
||||
~/shell/plex/backup-plex.sh --webhook <TAB>
|
||||
# Shows: https://notify.peterwood.rocks/lab
|
||||
|
||||
# Help verification
|
||||
~/shell/immich/backup-immich.sh --help
|
||||
# Shows comprehensive help with all available options

||||
```
|
||||
|

|
||||
|
||||
## Maintenance
|
||||
|
||||
### Adding New Scripts
|

|
||||
2. Register with `complete -F function_name script_name`
|
||||
3. Test completion works correctly
|
||||
4. Update documentation
|
||||
|
||||
### Adding New Flags
|
||||
|
