💖 EC_COMP_ITEM_GET_GRP(3) 💖

okay bestie, so this is a page straight outta the Libecoli Programmer's Manual, and honestly? it's a little one, but it's iconic for it. let's go 🫶

✨ NAME ✨

ec_comp_item_get_grp — get the group of a completion item, periodt.

---

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

#include <ecoli/complete.h>

const struct ec_comp_group * ec_comp_item_get_grp(
    const struct ec_comp_item   *item   /* The completion item. */
);

like, that's the whole thing. one function, one argument, she's serving minimalism 💅

---

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

so the completion group is basically the squad — it's the list of items that share the same parsing state AND were issued by the same node. both. no cap.

think of it like: same vibe (parsing state), same source (node), so they get grouped together. it's giving found family, fr fr. ✨

👑 RETURN VALUE 👑

the completion group of this item. that's it, that's the tea. 🍓
