Pip has a long list of commands. Is there any way to use auto-complete by Tab in console (Bash)?

A pip autocompletion plugin for Bash can be found at https://github.com/ekalinin/pip-bash-completion.
You can download it as a ZIP or simply install using Git:
git clone https://github.com/ekalinin/pip-bash-completion.git
sudo cp ./pip-bash-completion/pip /etc/bash_completion.d/
. /etc/bash_completion.d/pip # to enable in the current shell, next time should load automatically

A reasonably current pip comes with built-in functionality to create completion helpers for bash, zsh or fish:
$ pip help completion
Usage: pip completion [options]
Description:
A helper command to be used for command completion.
Completion Options:
-b, --bash Emit completion code for bash
-z, --zsh Emit completion code for zsh
-f, --fish Emit completion code for fish
You can use it like so:
pip completion --bash >> ~/.bashrc
And then start a new shell or source ~/.bashrc to have it take effect.

Funny that the completion does not install automatically together withpipif the code is contained in it…

@Melebius there's no good way for it to do so - packages can't touch files in the user home directories, and installing globally to/etc/bash.bashrcis tricky to do automatically

Apr 21 at 11:08
@muru As you can see in my answer and the linked page, there is also the directory/etc/bash_completion.d/where it could be placed more easily.

@Melebius which is from the bash-completion package, and those are two rather independent packages. This built-in completion code doesn't depend at all on bash-completion, so why would it use that directory?
