Please provide PowerShell tab completion for chocolatey

  • For package names
  • For commands and options
  • Need the installer to put in the profile setting.
  • Need the profile setting to work appropriately.
  • Investigate if setting the profile is something to do in Posh v2 only. If so, set up for adding to PSModulePath.

It's a bit confusing with two repositories...

Yes, it is a bit confusing - the ones in chocolatey/chocolatey either get fixed just as a result of not being written in PowerShell or get migrated over to here. In this case migrated. :)

(GH-412)(GH-664) PoSh tab completion / refreshenv
b480d6b 
Provide PowerShell tab completion for Chocolatey commands including

- searching for installed packages for upgrade/uninstall
- searching for packages to install  - only return the top 5 results
   from a search and only search by id

Also set refreshenv as part of the profile additions.

To play with this, install the latest beta and run Import-Module “$env:ChocolateyInstall\helpers\chocolateyProfile.psm1” -Force in the shell you want to try this feature in.

Decided to punt on Posh v2 support. This is not a core feature, but an enhancement. So if someone can get this working with POSH v2, I'd accept the PR. I'm just not going to work on making it work.

(GH-412) Tab Completion Flow / Filtering / Perf
78ebc5c 
- Draw out the flow of tab completion so it feels natural,
  which includes the options most widely being used coming
  first in the option set.
- Introduce naive filtering to not redisplay an already
  passwed option/switch. It doesn't quite work if it is a
  value you need to add data to but it's a start.
- Skip using the choco shim and go directly to the choco.exe.
- Tweak commands to produce the fastest execution

(GH-412) Install Chocolatey Profile
607de0e 
When installing Chocolatey, it should attempt to install the profile.
This may fail when run against Local System, so the failure should not
affect Chocolatey installation.

I have installed Chocolatey v0.10.3 but tab completion doesn't work for me, but I tried import module like is written above Import-Module “$env:ChocolateyInstall\helpers\chocolateyProfile.psm1” -Force and it works really good, how to do this permanent?
