If you do not wish to use the default `completion` command, you can choose to
provide your own, which will take precedence over the default one. (This also provides

## Adapting the default completion command
Cobra provides a few options for the default `completion` command. To configure such options you must set
the `CompletionOptions` field on the *root* command.
To tell Cobra *not* to provide the default `completion` command:
```
rootCmd.CompletionOptions.DisableDefaultCmd = true
```
To tell Cobra *not* to provide the user with the `--no-descriptions` flag to the completion sub-commands:
```
rootCmd.CompletionOptions.DisableNoDescFlag = true
```
To tell Cobra to completely disable descriptions for completions:
```
rootCmd.CompletionOptions.DisableDescriptions = true

### Bash legacy dynamic completions
For backwards-compatibility, Cobra still supports its bash legacy dynamic completion solution.
For backward compatibility, Cobra still supports its bash legacy dynamic completion solution.
Please refer to [Bash Completions](bash_completions.md) for details.
### Bash completion V2
Cobra provides two versions for bash completion. The original bash completion (which started it all!) can be used by calling
`GenBashCompletion()` or `GenBashCompletionFile()`.
A new V2 bash completion version is also available. This version can be used by calling `GenBashCompletionV2()` or
`GenBashCompletionFileV2()`. The V2 version does **not** support the legacy dynamic completion
(see [Bash Completions](bash_completions.md)) but instead works only with the Go dynamic completion
solution described in this document.
Unless your program already uses the legacy dynamic completion solution, it is recommended that you use the bash
completion V2 solution which provides the following extra features:
- Supports completion descriptions (like the other shells)
- Small completion script of less than 300 lines (v1 generates scripts of thousands of lines; `kubectl` for example has a bash v1 completion script of over 13K lines)
- Streamlined user experience thanks to a completion behavior aligned with the other shells
`Bash` completion V2 supports descriptions for completions. When calling `GenBashCompletionV2()` or `GenBashCompletionFileV2()`
you must provide these functions with a parameter indicating if the completions should be annotated with a description; Cobra
will provide the description automatically based on usage information. You can choose to make this option configurable by
your users.
```
# With descriptions
$ helm s[tab][tab]
search (search for a keyword in charts) status (display the status of the named release)
show (show information of a chart)
# Without descriptions
$ helm s[tab][tab]
search show status
```
**Note**: Cobra's default `completion` command uses bash completion V2. If for some reason you need to use bash completion V1, you will need to implement your own `completion` command.

## PowerShell completions
Please refer to [PowerShell Completions](powershell_completions.md) for details.
Cobra supports native PowerShell completions generated from the root `cobra.Command`. You can use the `command.GenPowerShellCompletion()` or `command.GenPowerShellCompletionFile()` functions. To include descriptions use `command.GenPowerShellCompletionWithDesc()` and `command.GenPowerShellCompletionFileWithDesc()`. Cobra will provide the description automatically based on usage information. You can choose to make this option configurable by your users.
The script is designed to support all three PowerShell completion modes:
* TabCompleteNext (default windows style - on each key press the next option is displayed)
* Complete (works like bash)
* MenuComplete (works like zsh)
You set the mode with `Set-PSReadLineKeyHandler -Key Tab -Function <mode>`. Descriptions are only displayed when using the `Complete` or `MenuComplete` mode.
Users need PowerShell version 5.0 or above, which comes with Windows 10 and can be downloaded separately for Windows 7 or 8.1. They can then write the completions to a file and source this file from their PowerShell profile, which is referenced by the `$Profile` environment variable. See `Get-Help about_Profiles` for more info about PowerShell profiles.
```
# With descriptions and Mode 'Complete'
$ helm s[tab]
search (search for a keyword in charts) show (show information of a chart) status (displays the status of the named release)
# With descriptions and Mode 'MenuComplete' The description of the current selected value will be displayed below the suggestions.
$ helm s[tab]
search show status

# Without descriptions

* You should instead use `ValidArgsFunction` and `RegisterFlagCompletionFunc()` which are portable to the different shells (`bash`, `zsh`, `fish`, `powershell`).
* The function `MarkFlagCustom()` is not supported and will be ignored for `powershell`.
* You should instead use `RegisterFlagCompletionFunc()`.
* The following flag completion annotations are not supported and will be ignored for `powershell`:
* `BashCompFilenameExt` (filtering by file extension)
* `BashCompSubdirsInDir` (filtering by directory)
* The functions corresponding to the above annotations are consequently not supported and will be ignored for `powershell`:
* `MarkFlagFilename()` and `MarkPersistentFlagFilename()` (filtering by file extension)
* `MarkFlagDirname()` and `MarkPersistentFlagDirname()` (filtering by directory)
* Similarly, the following completion directives are not supported and will be ignored for `powershell`:
* `ShellCompDirectiveFilterFileExt` (filtering by file extension)
* `ShellCompDirectiveFilterDirs` (filtering by directory)
