bitbake-completion

Bitbake bash completion scripts compatible with version 1.40.0, and with Yocto 2.6 (Thud) release.

How to use it ?

• Just copy the "bitbake_completion" file to /etc/bash_completion.d:

$ cp bitbake_completion /etc/bash_completion.d/

• or source file

$ source bitbake_completion

Available completion files:

• bitbake,
• bitbake-diffsigs,
• bitbake-dumpsig,
• bitbake-layers,
• bitbake-prserv,
• bitbake-selftest,
• devtool.

How does it work ?

It will create 2 hidden files with using $ bitbake -s in the build directory on the first execution:

.bb_recipes - file with cache of available bitbake recipes .bb_layers_conf.md5 - bblayers.conf md5 checksum file

It will create a new cache of available bitbake recipes in the following situations:

1. When updating the bblayers.conf file.
2. When running bitbake for the first time.

TODO list:

• bash bitbake completion latest release 1.40.0 (yocto - Thud 2.6)
• create bash completion for other yocto tools (e.g bitbake-layers, bitbake-diffsigs)
• support older branches
• support for zsh completion
