zsh/bash completion with ruby gem command tool

Question

I created a command line ruby gem and would like to have bash or zsh completion. I created and versionned them, but I have to source them manually.

Is there a common way to execute scripts after the gem install, for example to edit the bashrc or zshrc and add the source command?

Answer 1

If you are using ruby gems:

After installation your script, that placed in ./bin/ folder should automatically appeared in /usr/bin/ folder.

zsh and bash on OS X automatically suggest me competition for all commands, that placed in /usr/bin/ directory.

Possible problems, that can prevent code completions for your gem:

• check, that your gem-file is executable (chmod +x file)
• after installation open new terminal window to update shell settings.
