# Generating Bash Completions For Your Own cobra.Command
+If you are using the generator you can create a completion command by running
+
+```bash
+cobra add completion
+```
+
+Update the help text show how to install the bash_completion Linux show here [Kubectl docs show mac options](https://kubernetes.io/docs/tasks/tools/install-kubectl/#enabling-shell-autocompletion)
+
+Writing the shell script to stdout allows the most flexible use.
+
+```go
+// completionCmd represents the completion command
+var completionCmd = &cobra.Command{
+ Use: "completion",
+ Short: "Generates bash completion scripts",
+ Long: `To load completion run
+
+. <(bitbucket completion)
+
+To configure your bash shell to load completions for each session add to your bashrc
+
+# ~/.bashrc or ~/.profile
+. <(bitbucket completion)
+`,
+ Run: func(cmd *cobra.Command, args []string) {
+ rootCmd.GenBashCompletion(os.Stdout);
+ },
+}
+```
+
+**Note:** The cobra generator may include messages printed to stdout for example if the config file is loaded, this will break the auto complete script

Generating bash completions from a cobra command is incredibly easy. An actual program which does so for the kubernetes kubectl binary is as follows:

-The `BashCompletionFunction` option is really only valid/useful on the root command. Doing the above will cause `__custom_func()` to be called when the built in processor was unable to find a solution. In the case of kubernetes a valid command might look something like `kubectl get pod [mypod]`. If you type `kubectl get pod [tab][tab]` the `__customc_func()` will run because the cobra.Command only understood "kubectl" and "get." `__custom_func()` will see that the cobra.Command is "kubectl_get" and will thus call another helper `__kubectl_get_resource()`. `__kubectl_get_resource` will look at the 'nouns' collected. In our example the only noun will be `pod`. So it will call `__kubectl_parse_get pod`. `__kubectl_parse_get` will actually call out to kubernetes and get any pods. It will then set `COMPREPLY` to valid pods!
