shell - tab autocomplete on python script execution in console -

-

i'm having "issue" (for lack of better word), whenever run python script arguments, can't use tab completion function of unix consoles. example when want put file in script execution. hope examples illustrate better issue.

case 1

>python3 script.py  [tab]  folder/ folder1/ data.dat

case 2

>python3 script.py -f d  [tab]  folder/ folder1/ (file data.dat not showing)

ideal case

>python3 script.py -f data.dat - n 2 ....

hope made myself clear, , can explain me, i'm guessing python won't allow this, or needs configured in someway.

i'm using argparse in script usual code..

    ap.add_argument('-f', '--file', type=str, action='store', help='input file.',metavar='file')

i've tried type=argparse.filetype('r') same.

i want achieve because of files i'm working have long names, , requested not write files names every time.

anyway, reading.

ok, work around this. using python 3.5 can achieve wanted, autocomplete name of files in bash when executing python script.

so with

> python3 script.py [tab]  folder/ folder1/ data.dat > python3 script.py -f d [tab] folder/ folder1/ (file data.dat not showing)

and python 3.5

> python3.5 script.py -f d [tab]  folder/ folder1/ data.dat

this pages lead me valueable answers too.
