Description Of Changes
Add completion file for zsh (Mainly for use in WSL/WSL2).
Note: I can also create a bash completion file, if that is of interest
Motivation and Context
I use choco on a daily basis, mainly via WSL with the windows choco executable in my path and linked with an alias.
I thought it would be useful to have tab-completion in the linux shell, as otherwise you either have to continually execute the
choco --help
command, or switch to a powershell prompt to utilize the provided ps1 completion file provided.Thus, I made this completion file, using the
helpers/ChocolateyTabExpansion.ps1
file as a reference.Testing
N/A: Has no effect on any functionality, just a completion file.Adding the completion file into terminal (zsh):
restart shell: (can be done via:)
To test:
Note: You may have to add chocolatey to your path (if in WSL/WSL2) which is done by adding the following line to either your
~/.zsh_aliases
or~/.bash_aliases
file:(you can use
choco
,chocolatey
,chocolatey.exe
, etc ... (anything you want for a command name, and the completion will work regardless)Operating Systems Testing
N/A: Has no effect on any functionality, just a completion file.
