function. See the link for how to use it.< / p > < p > To create completions for a command is simple.
The callback will be passed 3 parameters:< / p > < ul > < li > < code > query< / code > (string): The text that the user is currently trying to complete.
This should be used to match entries.< / li > < li > < code > ctx< / code > (string): Contains the entire line. Use this if
more text is needed to be parsed for context.< / li > < li > < code > fields< / code > (string): The < code > ctx< / code > split up by spaces.< / li > < / ul > < p > In most cases, the completer just uses < code > fields< / code > to check the amount
and < code > query< / code > on what to match entries on.< / p > < p > In order to return your results, it has to go within a “ completion group.”
Then you return a table of completion groups and a prefix. The prefix will
usually just be the < code > query< / code > .< / p > < p > Hilbish allows one to mix completion menus of different types, so
a grid menu and a list menu can be used and complete and display at the same time.
A completion group is a table with these keys:< / p > < ul > < li > < code > type< / code > (string): type of completion menu, either < code > grid< / code > or < code > list< / code > .< / li > < li > < code > items< / code > (table): a list of items.< / li > < / ul > < p > The requirements of the < code > items< / code > table is different based on the
< code > type< / code > . If it is a < code > grid< / code > , it can simply be a table of strings.< / p > < p > Otherwise if it is a < code > list< / code > then each entry can
either be a string or a table.

< a href = #completion-handler class = heading-link > < i class = "fas fa-paperclip" > < / i > < / a > < / h2 > < p > Like most parts of Hilbish, it’ s made to be extensible and
customizable. The default handler for completions in general can
be overwritten to provide more advanced completions if needed.
This usually doesn’ t need to be done though, unless you know
what you’ re doing.< / p > < p > The default completion handler provides 3 things:
binaries (with a plain name requested to complete, those in
$PATH), files, or command completions. It will try to run a handler
for the command or fallback to file completions.< / p > < p > To overwrite it, just assign a function to < code > hilbish.completion.handler< / code > like so:< / p > < div class = highlight > < pre tabindex = 0 class = chroma > < code class = language-lua data-lang = lua > < span class = line > < span class = ln > 1< / span > < span class = cl > < span class = c1 > -- line is the entire line as a string< / span >
