How to add complete bash script

[RayGuo-ergou]

Hi, stripe cli can generate a script for completion like this

#compdef stripe

# zsh completion for stripe                               -*- shell-script -*-

__stripe_debug()
{
    local file="$BASH_COMP_DEBUG_FILE"
    if [[ -n ${file} ]]; then
        echo "$*" >> "${file}"
    fi
}

_stripe()
{

    local shellCompDirectiveNoSpace=2
    local shellCompDirectiveNoFileComp=4
    local shellCompDirectiveFilterFileExt=8
    local shellCompDirectiveFilterDirs=16

    local lastParam lastChar flagPrefix requestComp out directive comp lastComp noSpace
    local -a completions

How can I add this to carapace?

I have read through the spacs section but still don't quite sure how to do it.

You can't add the script directly. It would need to be registered in the shell and could then be bridged.
(Either globally or in the ${UserConfigDir}/carapace/bridge/bash/.bashrc)

This one looks like cobra though, so you could just add stripe: cobra to ${UserConfigDir}/carapace/bridges.yaml.

It worked! thanks.

btw I don't see any explanation for kingpin, cobra and completion, are they upstream terms? like zsh or terminal in general?

Argument parser libraries that provide provide completions by invoking the command in a special way.
This can be imitated and thus bridged.

oh thanks, did not notice the bridge is a separate lib.
