Autocompletehandler pasting full command instead of completing the written command #49

skast96 · 2022-03-08T09:27:37Z

Hello

as the title says the autocomplete is pasting the whole command into the input instead of completing it.
Example:

My commands:

defaultCommands: [
      "print test",
      "print pip list",
    ],

My Autocomplete:

 this.localEcho.addAutocompleteHandler((index, tokens) => {
        if (index !== 0) {
          let possible = this.defaultCommands;
          for (let command of tokens) {
            possible = possible.filter(element => element.includes(command));
          }
          return possible;
        }
        return this.defaultCommands;
      });

The text in the input:

print p **TAB TAB**

Results in:

print p print pip list

Is there a nice and simple solution for that?

Fixed it on my own just look at my fork if you need that behavior too.

The above mentioned fork seems to have been deleted. For anyone else who had this problem, my solution was to change the following around line 584 of LocalEchoController.js:

            } else if (candidates.length <= this.maxAutocompleteEntries) {

              // search for a shared fragement
              const sameFragment = getSharedFragment(inputFragment, candidates);
              
              // if there's a shared fragement between the candidates
              // print complete the shared fragment
              if (sameFragment) {
                const lastToken = getLastToken(inputFragment);
                this.handleCursorInsert(
                  sameFragment.substr(lastToken.length)
                );
              }

to

            } else if (candidates.length <= this.maxAutocompleteEntries) {
              const lastInputToken = getLastToken(inputFragment);
              // search for a shared fragement
              const sameFragment = getSharedFragment(lastInputToken, candidates);

              // if there's a shared fragement between the candidates
              // print complete the shared fragment
              if (sameFragment) {
                this.handleCursorInsert(
                  sameFragment.substr(lastInputToken.length)
                );
              }
