- CLI completion for iw (Linux wireless configuration utility). - Directly parses "iw help" output to discover commands and caches the result. - $service is used as the iw binary name. This allows this completion to work for differently-named iw binaries: compdef _iw my-iw-binary

# iw plugin
|
|
|
|
This plugin adds tab completion for [`iw`](https://wireless.wiki.kernel.org/en/users/documentation/iw),
|
|
the standard Linux command-line tool for configuring wireless network interfaces.
|
|
|
|
To use it, add `iw` to the plugins array in your zshrc file:
|
|
|
|
```zsh
|
|
plugins=(... iw)
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Completion
|
|
|
|
Completion is generated dynamically by parsing the output of `iw help` and cached for
|
|
performance. The cache is stored in `$ZSH_CACHE_DIR/_iw_cache` and is automatically
|
|
regenerated when the installed version of `iw` changes.
|
|
|
|
The following command structure is completed:
|
|
|
|
| Level | Examples |
|
|
| ----- | -------- |
|
|
| Top-level commands | `dev`, `phy`, `wdev`, `reg`, `list`, `event`, … (discovered dynamically) |
|
|
| Interface / phy names | `wlan0`, `phy0` (discovered from `/sys/class/net` and `/sys/class/ieee80211`) |
|
|
| Subcommands | `dev <if> scan`, `dev <if> station`, `phy <phy> set`, … |
|
|
| Sub-subcommands | `dev <if> scan dump`, `dev <if> station get`, `phy <phy> set txpower`, … |
|
|
|
|
## Functions
|
|
|
|
| Function | Description |
|
|
| -------- | ----------- |
|
|
| `iw-clear-cache` | Delete the cached completion data (useful after upgrading `iw`) |
|
|
|
|
## Requirements
|
|
|
|
- `iw` must be installed and in `$PATH`
|
|
- Completion for a differently-named `iw` binary can be enabled with:
|
|
|
|
```zsh
|
|
compdef _iw my-iw-binary
|
|
```
