| Setting up bash completion |
| ========================== |
| |
| When using bash as your shell, ``pytest`` can use argcomplete |
| (https://argcomplete.readthedocs.io/) for auto-completion. |
| For this ``argcomplete`` needs to be installed **and** enabled. |
| |
| Install argcomplete using:: |
| |
| sudo pip install 'argcomplete>=0.5.7' |
| |
| For global activation of all argcomplete enabled python applications run:: |
| |
| sudo activate-global-python-argcomplete |
| |
| For permanent (but not global) ``pytest`` activation, use:: |
| |
| register-python-argcomplete pytest >> ~/.bashrc |
| |
| For one-time activation of argcomplete for ``pytest`` only, use:: |
| |
| eval "$(register-python-argcomplete pytest)" |
