Question 1

How to install zsh-completions on macOS?

Accepted Answer

Clone the repository and add the completion directories to your fpath in .zshrc, then run 'compinit'. Specific steps are minimal in the README, so you might need to refer to Zsh documentation for full setup.

Question 2

zsh-completions vs oh-my-zsh completions, which should I use?

Accepted Answer

zsh-completions offers a focused, curated library for Go and macOS tools, while oh-my-zsh provides a broader framework with plugins. Choose zsh-completions for targeted support, oh-my-zsh for an all-in-one solution with community plugins.

Question 3

Does zsh-completions work with antigen or zplug?

Accepted Answer

Yes, you can integrate it as a plugin by adding the repository source, but ensure completion files are properly sourced in your Zsh config, as some managers may require additional setup steps.

Question 4

How to add custom completions to zsh-completions?

Accepted Answer

Fork the repository and place your completion scripts in the appropriate category directories (e.g., src/go for Go tools), following the existing structure. Contribution guidelines are not detailed, so familiarity with Zsh completion syntax is needed.

Question 5

zsh-completions not working for protoc, what can I do?

Accepted Answer

Check if the completion file is correctly sourced and that your Zsh version supports it. Verify the specific script in src/zsh for protoc, and consider updating the library if the tool has changed its flags.

Question 6

Is zsh-completions actively maintained for new tools?

Accepted Answer

The project appears maintained with recent updates, but as community-driven, additions for cutting-edge tools may be slow. Review the GitHub repository for issue tracking and pull request activity.
