docopt-completion exits with "No completion paths found"

[schmir]

looks like docopt-completion fails to find the "completion paths":

$ docopt-completion fscrawler
No completion paths found.
$ echo $SHELL
/bin/zsh
$ $SHELL --version
zsh 4.3.17 (x86_64-pc-linux-gnu)

docopt-completion supports zsh with oh-my-zsh and prezto only. It looks for specific paths that these frameworks use. Are you using one of these? Can you please paste the output of echo $fpath? (this lists the folders that the completion system uses)

I will update the output to be more informative. I will also supply an option to create the completion file even if the paths are not found, so the user can place them manually.

[schmir]

I'm not using oh-my-zsh/prezto.

fpath looks like:

/usr/share/zsh/site-functions /usr/share/zsh/4.3.17/functions/Calendar /usr/share/zsh/4.3.17/functions/Chpwd /usr/share/zsh/4.3.17/functions/Completion /usr/share/zsh/4.3.17/functions/Completion/AIX /usr/share/zsh/4.3.17/functions/Completion/BSD /usr/share/zsh/4.3.17/functions/Completion/Base /usr/share/zsh/4.3.17/functions/Completion/Cygwin /usr/share/zsh/4.3.17/functions/Completion/Darwin /usr/share/zsh/4.3.17/functions/Completion/Debian /usr/share/zsh/4.3.17/functions/Completion/Linux /usr/share/zsh/4.3.17/functions/Completion/Mandriva /usr/share/zsh/4.3.17/functions/Completion/Redhat /usr/share/zsh/4.3.17/functions/Completion/Solaris /usr/share/zsh/4.3.17/functions/Completion/Unix /usr/share/zsh/4.3.17/functions/Completion/X /usr/share/zsh/4.3.17/functions/Completion/Zsh /usr/share/zsh/4.3.17/functions/Completion/openSUSE /usr/share/zsh/4.3.17/functions/Exceptions /usr/share/zsh/4.3.17/functions/MIME /usr/share/zsh/4.3.17/functions/Misc /usr/share/zsh/4.3.17/functions/Newuser /usr/share/zsh/4.3.17/functions/Prompts /usr/share/zsh/4.3.17/functions/TCP /usr/share/zsh/4.3.17/functions/VCS_Info /usr/share/zsh/4.3.17/functions/VCS_Info/Backends /usr/share/zsh/4.3.17/functions/Zftp /usr/share/zsh/4.3.17/functions/Zle

thanks for looking into this..

@schmir can you please check the development branch, and see if the tool works for you now? I added a few fixes, it should find the path now.

[schmir]

that fails with an import error using docopt 0.6.1:

[wiggin15]

Thanks for pointing this out. I changed the interfaces to match the latest docopt. Can you please try now?

[schmir]

yes, that work's now. Thanks!

One more thing I think there's no good reason to forbid the slash character in command names (just do an os.path.basename).

[wiggin15]

Done. Thanks for your help. Feel free to open more issues that you find.

Hi. I'm getting the same message: Command does not exist or command help failed.

echo $SHELL /bin/zsh

$SHELL --version zsh 5.0.2 (x86_64-apple-darwin12.4.0)

echo $fpath /Users/indika/.oh-my-zsh/plugins/virtualenv /Users/indika/.oh-my-zsh/plugins/mvn /Users/indika/.oh-my-zsh/plugins/git /Users/indika/.oh-my-zsh/functions /Users/indika/.oh-my-zsh/completions /usr/local/share/zsh/site-functions /usr/local/Cellar/zsh/5.0.2/share/zsh/functions

I tried with both the version obtained from pip, and by cloning the development branch. Anything obvious I'm missing?

[wiggin15]

Hi. This isn't exactly the same message. Looks like the problem is with the script you are passing to docopt-completion. docopt-completion tries to run the given argument (your script name) with --help. e.g. if you ru docopt-completion foo, it will try foo --help. Try to run it yourself, and then run echo $? to see if your script returns 0 when being run with --help

[indi-ca]

Right. I was wondering why your example does not include .py extension after foo - because it processes the command, not the source. And your source is more sophisticated that the one's I write. Noob apologies.
