Configuring the OpenShift Pipelines tkn CLI

Configure the Red Hat OpenShift Pipelines tkn CLI to enable tab completion.

Enabling tab completion​

After you install the tkn CLI, you can enable tab completion to automatically complete tkn commands or suggest options when you press Tab.

Prerequisites

  • You must have the tkn CLI tool installed.
  • You must have bash-completion installed on your local system.

Procedure

The following procedure enables tab completion for Bash.

  1. Save the Bash completion code to a file:

    $ tkn completion bash > tkn_bash_completion

  2. Copy the file to /etc/bash_completion.d/:

    $ sudo cp tkn_bash_completion /etc/bash_completion.d/

    Alternatively, you can save the file to a local directory and source it from your .bashrc file instead.

Tab completion is enabled when you open a new terminal.
