Tab completion everywhere

[TylerLeonhardt]

This should work:

Get-SecretInfo -Vault <TAB>
Get-Secret -Name <TAB>

And complete based on the vaults that are available. Should be very simple to do with an argument completer.

On my to do list :)

I also noticed that Get-SecretInfo has a -Vault but Get-Secret has -VaultName. That should probably be consistent.

[PaulHigin]

?? Both of these cmdlets have the parameter 'Vault'. There is no cmdlet with 'VaultName'.

Get-Command -ParameterName *vaultname*

[TylerLeonhardt]

I realize where my confusion was... It's here:

https://github.com/PowerShell/SecretManagement#testvaultextensionpsm1-file

The extension takes in -VaultName but the SM cmdlets take in -Vault. That's kinda confusing. Could they be consistent?

[PaulHigin]

Oh I see. Yes this is inconsistent. But I don't want to create yet another breaking change for vault authors for something like this.

[PaulHigin]

Closing issue as answered.

[SteveL-MSFT]

Removing wontfix label as that applies to -Vault vs -VaultName, but this issue is really about tab completion. Tab completion should also apply to the name of the secret: get-secret -name <tab>

updated initial description

[itfranck]

I made my own little module a while ago (I need to review it for 0.5.3).
SecretManagementArgumentCompleter

I concur it would be super great to have that by default.
It is so convenient !

In my implementation, I create a local copy of the values obtained by Get-SecretInfo the first time and keep it on disk.
Otherwise it takes 2-3 seconds with Azure key vaults (and potentially other remote providers) and this is far less practical.

I added a Clear-SecretManagementArgumentCompleterCache to clear the file on disk.

Since this is not part of the official module (which would be awesome),
For now I import the module in my profile so I don't have to think about it and have it ready to complete.

Edit:
Don't forget to add ModuleName in the auto-completion :
(eg: Register-SecretVault -ModuleName)

Having the list of implementing module would be great too.
