Install Bash command autocompletion

  1. Make sure you have Bash completion package installed.

    Use the following command on Ubuntu/Debian Linux:

     sudo apt-get install bash-completion

  2. Source the included bash_completion file in your profile.

    Add the following line:

    source "<jagen_dir>/misc/bash_completion"

    either to:

    • ~/.bash_completion file, which should work also on macOS with an older completion package for Bash 3.2
    • ~/.local/share/bash-completion/completions/jagen.bash file to autoload the completions as needed, which is a feature of a newer Bash completion version

    Replace the <jagen_dir> with the path to the Jagen repository.

  3. Source your profile again, relogin or open a new terminal window to apply the changes.
