LXC.COMPLETION(1)

💅 lxc-completion — the glow-up

Okay bestie, so this page is from the LXD - Command line client manual (section 1), and it's literally all about lxc-completion — generating the autocompletion script for whichever shell you're living in. Pull up a chair, we're doing this. 🎀

---

✨ NAME ✨

lxc-completion — generate the autocompletion script for the specified shell. That's it, that's the whole personality. 🦋

---

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

lxc completion [flags]

Yep, that's the whole invocation. Flags are optional, the vibe is mandatory. ✨

---

✨ DESCRIPTION ✨

So what it does: it generates the autocompletion script for lxc, for the shell you tell it. That's the entire job and honestly? Iconic of it. 👑

For the deets on how to actually use the generated script (like, where do I even put this thing), check each sub-command's own help — the tea is in there, bestie. Each shell sub-command is different and I'm not about to lie to you. 🫶

✨ OPTIONS INHERITED FROM PARENT COMMANDS ✨

Not me needing to point out these aren't lxc-completion's own flags — they're inherited from the parent command, so they ride along like the besties they are. 💖

• --debug[=false] — show all the debug messages. Every last one. Spill the logs, honestly. 🔥
• --force-local[=false] — force using the local unix socket. Local vibes only, no cap. 🏠
• -h, --help[=false] — print help. The classic. The main character. ⭐
• --project="" — override the source project `` — okay so the manpage literally has a couple stray backticks hanging off the end there, I'm not fixing it, I'm just reporting the news 🙈
• -q, --quiet[=false] — don't show progress information. Silent mode, mysterious mode, lowkey mode. 🤫
• --sub-commands[=false] — use with help or --help to view sub-commands. Peek behind the curtain. 🎭
• -v, --verbose[=false] — show all information messages. Tell me everything, I'm listening. 💬
• --version[=false] — print version number. Who are you, where did you come from. 🌈

✨ SEE ALSO ✨

Go read these, they're the friend group: lxc(1), lxc-completion-bash(1), lxc-completion-fish(1), lxc-completion-powershell(1), lxc-completion-zsh(1). Pick your shell, pick your fighter. 🐚💅

✨ HISTORY ✨

22-Aug-2026 — auto generated by spf13/cobra. Not a human, not a vibe, just a generator doing its thing. 🤖

Heads up bestie: this whole page is auto-generated by spf13/cobra. So if something looks a lil weird (cough cough, those stray backticks on --project), it's the machine's fault, not mine. 💀

---

And that's the page!! 💜 Signing off — it's the LXD - Command line client(1) manual, Aug 2026 version, and yes, the whole thing was auto generated by spf13/cobra. Slay, stay autocompleted, and go touch some shells. 🦋🌸💖
