Pip's autocompletion does not support package names

[ghost]

May be we could adopt oh-my-zsh's version.

It would be nice to merge these versions: while oh-my-zsh's version has support for package names (a very inportant feature), it is missing pip commands like "show".

Any news on this?

as far as I checked, pip has upstream completion now. (can be generated by pip/runner.py completion --zsh) So, I'd remove it now, as repository rules suggests.

[blueyed]

pip's own completion appears to be not that sophisticated.

E.g. it does not complete files after pip install -r, has no description for the commands etc.

Maybe pip's completion should then get merged with the previous one from zsh-completions and oh-my-zsh's then.

Probably. But that is definitely pip's upstream issue (you can point them on https://github.com/zsh-users/zsh-completions/blob/b91db13f5cf50ef3a303c6926c84bfb37aab6c85/src/_pip (as part of this repo) and to o-m-z version, and ask them to fetch it and adopt) ;)

Although, I bet they'll say "patches are welcomed" ;)

I've gave it a shot today: https://gist.github.com/blueyed/54a257c411310a28805a

Will probably create a repo for it in the next days / weeks, and ask for inclusion in pip or zsh.

Reopening as the upstream pip completion is bad, and @blueyed's one seems a lot better (even though PyPI's XMLRPC API seems to be dead, so it needs update)

[dufferzafar]

@blueyed Did you create a repo for this?
