deno: zsh completion is broken

@meSingh try the following commands:

mkdir ~/.oh-my-zsh/custom/plugins/deno
deno completions zsh > ~/.oh-my-zsh/custom/plugins/deno/_deno

After this add deno plugin under plugins tag in .zshrc file.

@vinschess @meSingh please be aware that oh-my-zsh !== zsh. There are people (albeit few I assume) who are using zsh without the framework behind it. They won’t have access to the plugin mechanism. The documentation should imo:

• most importantly: provide a way to make it work in plain zsh (still unclear to me)
• optionally, provide a way for oh-my-zsh

for people who are using antigen like I am, the process remains the same, just change the path to ~/.antigen/bundles/robbyrussell/oh-my-zsh/plugins instead of ~/.oh-my-zsh and then add antigen bundle deno to the .zshrc to load the plugin. enjoy!

In case somebody comes across this issue from a search, I am using antigen and followed these instructions and was still getting the following error: “No such file or directory: …/.antigen/bundles/robbyrussell/oh-my-zsh/cache//completions/_deno”. I needed to create the $ZSH_CACHE_DIR/completions directory manually as per https://github.com/ohmyzsh/ohmyzsh/issues/10728#issuecomment-1129786095 to get things working.

zsh completions seem to be working as expected with 1.9.2. Here are clear instructions to set up completions for modern shells (including zsh): https://deno.land/manual@v1.9.2/getting_started/setup_your_environment#shell-autocomplete.

I think we can close this issue.

I’m currently not able to get deno completions to work:

deno completions zsh > /tmp/deno_zsh
source /tmp/deno_zsh
>>> _arguments:comparguments:312: can only be called from completion function

deno completions bash > /tmp/deno_bash
source /tmp/deno_bash
>>> /tmp/deno_bash:649: command not found: complete

Both run with: zsh 5.1.1 (x86_64-ubuntu-linux-gnu) deno 1.0.5

It’s working in bash, but I’m not terribly inclined to switch tbh =)

@bartlomieju could this be some kind of regression bug?

Any help much appreciated!

@bartlomieju I have just checked, it works now!
