gcloud completions

[jthegedus]

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

GCloud supports shell autocompletions. It outputs the setup at the end of installation. However, the path to the completions changes with each version and is therefore unmaintainable when changing gcloud versions across projects.

Describe the solution you'd like

asdf-gcloud should output correct recommendations for sourcing shell completions.

Describe alternatives you've considered

NA

Additional context

• Might want to add the correct location to the oh-my-zsh/plugin/gcloud - https://github.com/ohmyzsh/ohmyzsh/blob/9ce7de9f16ba894423bc5105c7e959894ca2e751/plugins/gcloud/gcloud.plugin.zsh#L7

Is https://github.com/asdf-community/asdf-direnv the only way to achieve this? https://cloud.google.com/sdk/docs/configurations#automating_configuration_switching

Did you find a solution for this in the end? Anything I can help with?

This is probably a bit late, but you can use the command asdf where gcloud to get the installation path of the currently used gcloud version, e.g:

~/ $ asdf where gcloud
/home/me/.asdf/installs/gcloud/462.0.0
~/ $ asdf shell gcloud 466.0.0 
~/ $ asdf where gcloud        
/home/me/.asdf/installs/gcloud/466.0.0

You can then use the following line in your .zshrc/.bashrc to always source from the currently active installation

source "$(asdf where gcloud)/completions.zsh.inc"
