different completion lists for required arguments

[unimock]

Hello DannyBen

First of all, thank you for this cool tool! Unfortunately I only stumbled upon it now.

I want to realize a script with multiple required arguments of different types and so different completion lists for each argument.

./cli host assign <host> <vserver>

In my naive approach I tried following:

- name: host
  help: assign existing host to an virtual server
  commands:
  - name: assign
    args:
    - name: host
      help: Hostname
      required: true
      completion:
        - $(get_availible_hosts)
    - name: vserver
      help: Virtual server
      required: true
      completion:
        - $(get_availible_vserver)

but using "completions" in "args" ist not supported from bashly.
Also using "allowed:" is not a option, because it mixed up both lists.

I am aware that this can be achieved with flags, like ./cli host assign --vserver <vserver> <host>

But this notation doesn't fit into my existing environment.

Is there a configuration way to get this behavior?

Thanks and best regards

Michael

Hi Michael. No, this is not possible.

The bashly completion function is provided by Completely and does not have any notion of "word position" in the input line. which is what your requirement needs.

The best option you have is using allowed. Your choice is to either have completions with the mixed list, or not have completions (at least not ones that are automatically generated by bashly).
