#
# A generic Bash completion driver script.
#
# This is meant to provide a re-usable chunk of Bash to use for
# "etc/bash_completion.d/" files for individual tools. Only the "Configuration"
# section with tool-specific info need differ. Features:
#
# - support for short and long opts
# - support for knowing which options take arguments
# - support for subcommands (e.g. 'git log <TAB>' to show just options for the
#   log subcommand)
# - does the right thing with "--" to stop options
# - custom optarg and arg types for custom completions
# - (TODO) support for shells other than Bash (tcsh, zsh, fish?, etc.)
#
#
# Examples/design:
#
# 1. Bash "default" completion. By default Bash's 'complete -o default' is
#    enabled. That means when there are no completions (e.g. if no opts match
#    the current word), then you'll get Bash's default completion. Most notably
#    that means you get filename completion. E.g.:
#       $ tool ./<TAB>
#       $ tool READ<TAB>
#
# 2. all opts and subcmds:
#       $ tool <TAB>
#       $ tool -v <TAB>     # assuming '-v' doesn't take an arg
#       $ tool -<TAB>       # matching opts
#       $ git lo<TAB>       # matching subcmds
#
#    Long opt completions are given *without* the '=', i.e. we prefer space
#    separated because that's easier for good completions.
#
# 3. long opt arg with '='
#       $ tool --file=<TAB>
#       $ tool --file=./d<TAB>
#    We maintain the "--file=" prefix. Limitation: With the attached prefix
#    the 'complete -o filenames' doesn't know to do dirname '/' suffixing. Meh.
#
# 4. envvars:
#       $ tool $<TAB>
#       $ tool $P<TAB>
#    Limitation: Currently only getting exported vars, so we miss "PS1" and
#    others.
#
# 5. Defer to other completion in a subshell:
#       $ tool --file $(cat ./<TAB>
#    We get this from 'complete -o default ...'.
#
# 6. Custom completion types from a provided bash function.
#       $ tool --profile <TAB>        # complete available "profiles"

# Debugging this completion:
#   1. Uncomment the "_{{name}}_log_file=..." line.
#   2. 'tail -f /var/tmp/dashdash-completion.log' in one terminal.
#   3. Re-source this bash completion file.
