Omelette is a simple, template based autocompletion tool for Node projects with super easy API.

yarn add omelette
# or
npm install omelette

You just have to decide your program name and CLI fragments.

omelette`github ${['pull', 'push']} ${['origin', 'upstream']} ${['master', 'develop']}`.init()

And you are almost done! The output will be like this:

Quick Start

Implementing omelette is very easy.

import * as omelette from 'omelette';

const firstArgument = ({ reply }) => {
  reply([ 'beautiful', 'cruel', 'far' ])
}

const planet = ({ reply }) => {
  reply([ 'world', 'mars', 'pluto' ])
}

omelette`hello|hi ${firstArgument} ${planet}`.init()

Simple Event Based API ☕️

It's based on a simple CLI template.

Let's think we have a executable file with the name githubber, in a global path.

And in our program, code will be:

import * as omelette from 'omelette';

// Write your CLI template.
const completion = omelette(`githubber|gh <action> <user> <repo>`);

// Bind events for every template part.
completion.on('action', ({ reply }) => {
  reply([ 'clone', 'update', 'push' ])
})

completion.on('user', ({ reply }) => {
  reply(fs.readdirSync('/Users/'))
})

completion.on('repo', ({ before, reply }) => {
  reply([
    `http://github.com/${before}/helloworld`,
    `http://github.com/${before}/blabla`
  ])
})

// Initialize the omelette.
completion.init()

// If you want to have a setup feature, you can use `omeletteInstance.setupShellInitFile()` function.
if (~process.argv.indexOf('--setup')) {
  completion.setupShellInitFile()
}

// Rest is yours
console.log("Your program's default workflow.")
console.log(process.argv)

complete.reply is the completion replier. You must pass the options into that method.

ES6 Template Literal API 🚀

You can use Template Literals to define your completion with a simpler (super easy) API.

import * as omelette from 'omelette';

// Just pass a template literal to use super easy API.
omelette`hello ${[ 'cruel', 'nice' ]} ${[ 'world', 'mars' ]}`.init()

Let's make the example above with ES6 TL:

import * as omelette from 'omelette'

// Write your CLI template.
omelette`
  githubber|gh
  
  ${[ 'clone', 'update', 'push' ]}
  ${() => fs.readdirSync('/Users/')} 
  ${({ before }) => [
    `http://github.com/${before}/helloworld`,
    `http://github.com/${before}/blabla`,
  ]}
`.init()

Also you can still use lambda functions to make more complex template literals:

Advanced Template Literals

import * as omelette from 'omelette';

omelette`
  githubber|gh
      ${['pull', 'push', 'star'] /* Direct command list */}
      ${require('some/other/commands') /* Import from another file */}
      ${getFromRemote('http://api.example.com/commands') /* Remote call at the beginning */}
      ${({ reply }) => fetch('http://api.example.com/lazy-commands').then(reply) /* Fetch when argument <tab>bed */}
      ${() => fs.readdirSync("/Users/") /* Access filesystem via Node */}
      ${({ before }) => [ /* Use parameters like `before`, `line`, `fragment` or `reply` */
        `${before}/helloworld`,
        `${before}/blabla`
      ]}
  `.init()

// No extra configuration required.

console.log("Your program's default workflow.")
console.log(process.argv)

Tree API 🌲

You can use simple objects as autocompletion definitions:

omelette('hello').tree({
  cruel: ['world', 'moon'],
  beautiful: ['mars', 'pluto']
}).init();

Install

Automated Install

Installing, and making your users install the autocompletion feature is very simple.

You can use simply use setupShellInitFile function.

// If you want to write file,
complete.setupShellInitFile('~/.my_bash_profile')

If you use Bash, it will create a file at ~/.<program-name>/completion.sh and append a loader code to ~/.bash_profile file.

If you use Zsh, it appends a loader code to ~/.zshrc file.

If you use Fish, it appends a loader code to ~/.config/fish/config.fish file.

TL;DR: It does the Manual Install part, basically.

Manual Install

(You should add these instructions to your project's README)

In zsh, you can write these:

echo '. <(./githubber --completion)' >> .zshrc

In bash, you should write:

./githubber --completion >> ~/githubber.completion.sh
echo 'source ~/githubber.completion.sh' >> .bash_profile

In fish, you can write:

echo 'githubber --completion-fish | source' >> ~/.config/fish/config.fish

That's all!

Now you have an autocompletion system for your CLI tool.

Additions

There are some useful additions for omelette.

Parameters

Callbacks have two parameters:

• The fragment name (e.g.command of <command> template) (only in global event)
• The meta data
  • fragment: The number of fragment.
  • before: The previous word.
  • line: The whole command line buffer allow you to parse and reply as you wish.
  • reply: This is the reply function to use this-less API.

Global Event

You also can be able to listen all fragments by "complete" event.

complete.on('complete', (fragment, { reply }) => reply(["hello", "world"]));

Numbered Arguments

You also can listen events by its order.

complete.on('$1', ({ reply }) => reply(["hello", "world"]))

Autocompletion Tree

You can create completion tree to more complex autocompletions.

omelette('hello').tree({
  how: {
    much: {
      is: {
        this: ['car'],
        that: ['house'],
      }
    }
    are: ['you'],
    many: ['cars', 'houses'],
  },
  where: {
    are: {
      you: ['from'],
      the: ['houses', 'cars'],
    },
    is: {
      // You can also add some logic with defining functions:
      your() {
        return ['house', 'car'];
      },
    }
  },
}).init()

Now you will be able to use your completion as tree.

Thanks @jblandry for the idea.

Advanced Tree Implementations

You can seperate your autocompletion by importing objects from another file:

omelette('hello').tree(require('./autocompletion-tree.js')).init();

Short Names

You can set short name of an executable:

In this example, githubber is long and gh is shorter examples.

omelette('githubber|gh <module> <command> <suboption>');

Test

Now, you can try it in your shell.

git clone https://github.com/f/omelette
cd omelette/example
alias githubber="./githubber" # The app should be global, completion will search it on global level.
./githubber --setup --debug # --setup is not provided by omelette, you should proxy it.
# (reload bash, or source ~/.bash_profile or ~/.config/fish/config.fish)
omelette-debug-githubber # See Debugging section
githubber<tab>
ghb<tab> # short alias
gh<tab> # short alias

Debugging

--debug option generates a function called omlette-debug-<programname>. (omlette-debug-githubber in this example).

When you run omlette-debug-<programname>, it will create aliases for your application. (githubber and gh in this example).

Long name,

$ githubber<tab>
clone update push

Or short name:

$ gh<tab>
clone update push

Then you can start easily.

$ ./githubber<tab>
clone update push

$ ./githubber cl<tab>
$ ./githubber clone<tab>
Guest fka

$ ./githubber clone fka<tab>
$ ./githubber clone fka http://github.com/fka/<tab>
http://github.com/fka/helloworld
http://github.com/fka/blabla

Who uses?

Windows Azure uses Omelette to support autocompletion in azure-cli.
