Tips

About the completion trigger key

  • PSCompletions uses the Tab key by default.
  • You can set it by running psc menu config trigger_key <key>.

About completion update

  • When PSCompletions module is imported after starting PowerShell, it will start a background job to check for the completion status of the remote repository.
  • After getting the update, PSCompletions will show the latest status of the completions in the next time.

About completion menu

  • In addition to the built-in completion menu of PowerShell, PSCompletions module also provides a more powerful completion menu.

    • Setting: psc menu config enable_menu 1 (Default: 1)
  • The module's completion menu is based on PS-GuiCompletion realization idea, thanks!

  • Available Windows environment:

    • PowerShell v4.0.0+ support
    • Windows PowerShell v4.1.0+ support
      • Due to rendering problems of Windows PowerShell, the border style of the completion menu cannot be customized.
        • If you need to customize it, use PowerShell.
  • Some keys in the module's completion menu.

    1. Apply the selected completion item: Enter

      • You can also use Tab or Space when there's only one completion.
    2. Delete filter characters: Backspace

    3. Exit the completion menu: Esc / Ctrl + c

      • You can also use Backspace when there're no characters in the filter area.
    4. Select completion item:

      Select previous item Select next item
      Up Down
      Left Right
      Shift + Tab Tab
      Shift + Space Space
      Ctrl + u Ctrl + d
      Ctrl + p Ctrl + n
  • All configurations of it, you can trigger completion by running psc menu, then learn about them by the completion tip.

    • For configured values, 1 means true and 0 means false. (It applies to all configurations of PSCompletions)

About menu enhance v4.2.0+ support

  • Setting: psc menu config enable_menu_enhance 1 (Default: 1)

  • Now, PSCompletions has two completion implementations.

    1. Register-ArgumentCompleter
      • v4.1.0 support : It's used.
      • v4.2.0+ support: It's optional.
        • You can use it by running psc menu config enable_menu_enhance 0.
        • It's not recommended. It only works for completions added by psc add.
    2. Set-PSReadLineKeyHandler
      • v4.2.0+ support: It's used by default.
        • Requires: enable_menu and enable_menu_enhance both set to 1.
      • It no longer needs to loop through registering Register-ArgumentCompleter for all completions, which theoretically makes loading faster.
      • It use TabExpansion2 to manage completions globally, not limited to those added by psc add.

About special symbols

Note

  • Due to future changes in Windows Terminal, 😄🤔😎 will not be displayed properly in the completion menu, so these three default special symbols will change.
  • Related issue: microsoft/terminal#18242
  • The changes are as follows:
    • 😄 =>
    • 🤔 => ?
    • 😎 =>
  • Special symbols after the completion item are used to let you know in advance if completions are available before you press the Tab key.

    • They only exist in completions added via psc add.
    • You can hide them by replacing them with the empty string.
      • psc menu symbol SpaceTab ""
      • psc menu symbol OptionTab ""
      • psc menu symbol WriteSpaceTab ""
  • ,?, : If there are multiple, you can choose the effect of one of them.

    • Define them:
      • Normal Completion: Sub-commands. Such as add/pull/push/commit/... in git.
      • Optional Completion: Optional parameters. Such as -g/-u/... in git add.
      • General Optional Completion: General optional parameters that can be used with any command. Such as --help/... in git.
    • : It means that after you apply it, you can press Space and Tab key to continue to get Normal Completion or Optional Completion.
      • It will appear only when there's Normal Completion or Optional Completion.
      • It can be customized by running psc menu symbol SpaceTab <symbol>

      • General Optional Completion use also this symbol.
      • It can be customized by running psc menu symbol OptionTab <symbol>
    • : It means that after you apply it (Optional Completion or General Optional Completion), you can press Space and enter a string, then press Space and Tab key to continue to get other Optional Completion or General Optional Completion.
      • If the string has Spaces, Please use "(quote) or '(single quote) to wrap it. e.g. "test content"
      • If there's also , it means that there's Normal Completion, you can press Space and Tab key to continue to get them without entering a string.
      • It can be customized by running psc menu symbol WriteSpaceTab <symbol>
    • All completions can be triggered by pressing the Tab key after entering a part.

About completion tip

    • To enable the completion tip, run psc menu config enable_tip 1.
    • You can also disable the tip for a specific completion, such as psc.
      • psc completion psc enable_tip 0
  • General structure of the completion tip: Usage + Description + Example

    U: install|add [-g|-u] [options] <app>
    This is a description of the command.

About language

  • Global language: Default to the language of current system.
    • You can show it by running psc config language.
    • You can change it by running psc config language zh-CN.
  • Completion language: The language set for the specified completion.
    • e.g. psc completion git language en-US.
  • Available language: In the completion config.json file, there is a language attribute whose value is a list of available languages.

Determine language

  1. Get the specified language:
    • If there is Completion language,use it.
    • If not, use Global language.
  2. Determine the final language:
    • Determine whether the value of the first step exists in Available language.
    • If it exists, use it.
    • If not, use the first of the Available language. (It's usually en-US)

About path completion

  • Take git for example, when entering git add, pressing the Space and Tab keys, path completion will not be triggered, only completion provided by the module will be triggered.
  • If you want to trigger path completion, you need to enter a content which matches ^(?:\.\.?|~)?(?:[/\\]).*.
  • e.g.
    • Please enter ./ or .\ and press Tab key to get path completion for the subdirectory or file.
    • Please enter ../ or ..\ and press Tab key to get path completion for the parent directory or file.
    • Please enter / or \ and press Tab key to get path completion for the sibling directory.
    • More examples: ~/ / ../../ ...
  • So you can enter git add ./ and then press Tab key to get the path completion.
