Bash shell support

Cordova CLI comes bundled with a script which provides command-line tab-completion for Bash. If you’re running a sufficiently Unix-y operating system (Linux, BSD, OS X) you can install this to make typing cordova command lines easier.

Installation

Linux

To install on a Linux or BSD system, copy the scripts/cordova.completion file to your /etc/bash_completion.d directory. This will be read the next time you start a new shell.

OS X

On OS X, put the scripts/cordova.completion file anywhere readable, and add the following line to the end of your ~/.bashrc file:

source <path to>/cordova.completion

This will be read the next time you start a new shell.

Usage

It’s easy! As long as your command line begins with an executable called ‘cordova’, just hit <TAB> at any point to see a list of valid completions.

Examples:

$ cordova <TAB>
build     compile   create    emulate   platform  plugin    prepare   serve

$ cordova pla<TAB>

$ cordova platform <TAB>
add ls remove rm

$ cordova platform a<TAB>

$ cordova platform add <TAB>
android     blackberry  ios         wp8         www

$ cordova plugin rm <TAB>

$ cordova plugin rm org.apache.cordova.<TAB>
org.apache.cordova.file    org.apache.cordova.inappbrowser
