[libvirt] [PATCHv2 0/4] Another attempt at improving virsh autocompletion

Version 2: Electric Boogaloo Version 1: https://www.redhat.com/archives/libvir-list/2014-March/msg01898.html This version of the patch introduces the following new things: - Tests (a whole bunch of them, in fact)! - A new `complete` command to run get newline-separated completion results from the command line - Support for completing partial quotes (e.g. `virsh complete "fake-command ab \"i "`) - Passing the syntax checks (sorry about that) A brief overview of the patch set follows: 1. Extract parsing logic from the vshCommandParse so that it can be used elsewhere. The new method returns states and sets passed in pointers. Calling methods can interpret these states and deal with them as needed (completion ignores many, while vshCommandParse throws errors). 2. Implement (and test!) an improved completion engine with support for virsh quoting rules, flags, positional arguments, no duplication, and more. 3. Add (and test!) a method for retrieve a global vshControl object should readline be enabled. This allows for "smart completion" of options like "domain". 4. Extract the domain listing code from virsh-domain-monitor, and move it to virsh-completer. Implement a domain completer, which is then used for all the cases of "domain" options (note that it current does not have any flags specified for which commands should list active vs inactive domains, as this commit is mainly to allow people to test out "smart completion") Solly Ross (4): Improve virsh autocompletion (extract parser) Improve virsh autocompletion (base framework) Improve virsh autocompletion (global ctl object) Improve virsh autocompletion (domain completer) po/POTFILES.in | 1 + tests/virshtest.c | 268 +++++++++++++ tools/Makefile.am | 3 +- tools/virsh-completer.c | 355 +++++++++++++++++ tools/virsh-completer.h | 85 +++++ tools/virsh-domain-monitor.c | 287 +------------- tools/virsh-domain.c | 72 ++++ tools/virsh-snapshot.c | 11 + tools/virsh.c | 880 +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++------ tools/virsh.h | 20 + 10 files changed, 1582 insertions(+), 400 deletions(-) create mode 100644 tools/virsh-completer.c create mode 100644 tools/virsh-completer.h -- 1.8.3.2
