Command Completion
==================
Shell command completion is provided by the script at
[/misc/completion/ipfs-completion.bash](../misc/completion/ipfs-completion.bash).
Installation
------------
The simplest way to see it working is to run
`source misc/completion/ipfs-completion.bash` straight from your shell. This
is only temporary and to fully enable it, you'll have to follow one of the steps
below.
### Bash on Linux
For bash, completion can be enabled in a couple of ways. One is to copy the
completion script to the directory `~/.ipfs/` and then in the file
`~/.bash_completion` add
```bash
source ~/.ipfs/ipfs-completion.bash
```
It will automatically be loaded the next time bash is loaded.
To enable ipfs command completion globally on your system you may also
copy the completion script to `/etc/bash_completion.d/`.
