readline_completion_function — Registriert eine Vervollständigungsfunktion
Diese Funktion registriert eine Vervollständigungsfunktion. Das ist die gleiche Art von Funktionalität als wenn Sie die Tab-Taste benutzen, während Sie mit der Bash arbeiten.
Sie müssen den Namen einer existierenden Funktion angeben, die einen Teil einer Kommandozeile akzeptiert und ein Array möglicher Übereinstimmungen zurückgibt.
Gibt bei Erfolg TRUE zurück. Im Fehlerfall wird FALSE zurückgegeben.
A little bit of info regarding useful variables when writing your callback function.
There doesn't seem to be a way to set rl_basic_word_break_characters like with the pure C library, so as previous users have pointed out you'll only receive the current word in the input buffer within your callback. If for example you're typing "big bro|ther", where the bar is the position of your cursor when you hit TAB, you'll receive (string) "brother" and (int) 4 as your callback parameters.
However, it is possible (easily) to get more useful information about what the user has typed into the readline buffer. readline_info() is key here. It will return an array containing:
"line_buffer" => (string)
the entire contents of the line buffer (+ some bugs**)
"point" => (int)
the current position of the cursor in the buffer
"end" => (int)
the position of the last character in the buffer
So for the example above you'd get:
* line_buffer => "big brother"
* point => 7
* end => 11
From this you can easily perform multi-word matches.
** NOTE: line_buffer seems to contain spurious data at the end of the string sometime. Fortunately since $end is provided you can substr() it to get the correct value.
The matches you need to return are full words that can replace $input, so your algorithm might crudely look something like:
<?php
function your_callback($input, $index) {
// Get info about the current buffer
$rl_info = readline_info();
// Figure out what the entire input is
$full_input = substr($rl_info['line_buffer'], 0, $rl_info['end']);
$matches = array();
// Get all matches based on the entire input buffer
foreach (phrases_that_begin_with($full_input) as $phrase) {
// Only add the end of the input (where this word begins)
// to the matches array
$matches[] = substr($phrase, $index);
}
return $matches;
}
?>
Note: the first argument passed to the registered function is NOT the whole command line as entered by the user, but only the last part, i.e. the part after the last space.
e.g.:
<?php
function my_readline_completion_function($string, $index) {
// If the user is typing:
// mv file.txt directo[TAB]
// then:
// $string = directo
// the $index is the place of the cursor in the line:
// $index = 19;
$array = array(
'ls',
'mv',
'dar',
'exit',
'quit',
);
// Here, I decide not to return filename autocompletion for the first argument (0th argument).
if ($index) {
$ls = `ls`;
$lines = explode("\n", $ls);
foreach ($lines AS $key => $line) {
if (is_dir($line)) {
$lines[$key] .= '/';
}
$array[] = $lines[$key];
}
}
// This will return both our list of functions, and, possibly, a list of files in the current filesystem.
// php will filter itself according to what the user is typing.
return $array;
}
?>
This function can simply return an array of all possible matches (regardless of the current user intput) and readline will handle the matching itself. This is likely to be much faster than attempting to handle partial matches in PHP.
It seems that the registered function can accept 2 parameters, the first being the partial string, the second a number that when equal to zero indicates that the tab was hit on the first argument on the input. Otherwise it looks like the position within the string is returned.
This is neccessary information for processing shell command line input.
