events --filter#5538Adds completion for
docker events --filter.There are different types of filters, requiring different completion logic.
Some filters have static values, others require API lookups.
In some cases, trailing spaces of intermediate completions have to be suppressed.
The completion logic is complex because cobra does not offer support for compound flag values.
The handler for the
--filterflag serves as the central entrypoint to all completions.How to verify:
in a dev container, run
make completion, then trigger completions, e.g.The completions should correspond to those of the legacy bash completion.
