LXC.COMPLETION.BASH(1)

🌸 lxc-completion-bash 💅

okay bestie, welcome to the manual page for lxc-completion-bash — that's the LXD - Command line client(1) family, if you're keeping track 🎀 — and no cap, this one's basically a little generator that spits out ✨bash autocompletion✨ so your shell finally stops ghosting you.

---

✨ NAME ✨

lxc-completion-bash — generate the autocompletion script for bash 🐚

---

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

lxc completion bash

---

✨ DESCRIPTION ✨

So what this does: it generates the autocompletion script for the bash shell. That's it. That's the vibe. 🫶

heads up bestie — this script depends on the bash-completion package. If it's not installed already, you can install it via your OS's package manager. lowkey important, don't skip this step 😭

Wanna load completions in your current shell session? run this:

source <(lxc completion bash)

Wanna load completions for every new session instead? then execute this once 👑

🐧 Linux:

lxc completion bash > /etc/bash_completion.d/lxc

🍎 macOS:

lxc completion bash > $(brew --prefix)/etc/bash_completion.d/lxc

The way that you will need to start a new shell for this setup to take effect — literally, that's the final step, don't forget it 💀
