Code completion for left side of :

[Nova38]

Your code completions for the talon list and actions works great and is very useful. I was wondering if there is currently plans to also have tab complete for the non spoken options for the right side of the colin; such as deck(<x>), key(<x>), gamepad(<x>)?

Do you mean the left side of the :? Because on the right side is the actions that we already have code completion for.

[Nova38]

Ah my bad, yeah I meant the left side.

[AndreasArvidsson]

Got it. It's not something I have planned at the moment but I'm not against it.

Would you be interested in me potentially contributing on it?

If so I have a few questions:

• Do we want it to be like the capture syntax auto complete and only have it show up when the user starts typing key etc..
• Would it be best to have to show up in this order key(->a:->up) where the last key before each of those arrows is used to trigger the next context of what can be auto completed.

[AndreasArvidsson]

I would like to say yes, but that code is somewhat complicated and lacking in testing.

Also I don't think you can actually properly complete the keys since they could be combined in any order. We also don't do arguments for actions today.

This would entail detecting that we are on the left hand side. ie the command rule and then have a different completion list compared to if you are on the right hand side. Note that today we only trigger completion on . or manually. Triggering completion on letters is somewhat unusual.
