VERSION

This document describes version 0.31 of pmpath (from Perl distribution App-PMUtils), released on 2014-12-03.

Find all modules (-a), return absolute paths (-P):

 % pmpath -a Some::Module

COMPLETION

This script has shell tab completion capability with support for several shells.

bash

To activate bash completion for this script, put:

 complete -C pmpath pmpath

in your bash startup (e.g. ~/.bashrc). Your next shell session will then recognize tab completion for the command. Or, you can also directly execute the line above in your shell to activate immediately.

You can also install App::BashCompletionProg which makes it easy to add completion for Perinci::CmdLine-based scripts. After you install the module and put . ~/.bash-complete-prog (or . /etc/bash-complete-prog), you can just run bash-completion-prog and the complete command will be added to your ~/.bash-completion-prog. Your next shell session will then recognize tab completion for the command.

fish

To activate fish completion for this script, execute:

 begin; set -lx COMP_SHELL fish; set -lx COMP_MODE gen_command; pmpath; end > $HOME/.config/fish/completions/pmpath.fish

Or if you want to install globally, you can instead write the generated script to /etc/fish/completions/pmpath.fish or /usr/share/fish/completions/pmpath.fish. The exact path might be different on your system. Please check your fish_complete_path variable.

tcsh

To activate tcsh completion for this script, put:

 complete pmpath 'p/*/`pmpath`/'

in your tcsh startup (e.g. ~/.tcshrc). Your next shell session will then recognize tab completion for the command. Or, you can also directly execute the line above in your shell to activate immediately.

zsh

To activate zsh completion for this script, put:

 _pmpath() { read -l; local cl="$REPLY"; read -ln; local cp="$REPLY"; reply=(`COMP_SHELL=zsh COMP_LINE="$cl" COMP_POINT="$cp" pmpath`) }

 compctl -K _pmpath pmpath

in your zsh startup (e.g. ~/.zshrc). Your next shell session will then recognize tab completion for the command. Or, you can also directly execute the line above in your shell to activate immediately.
