If you installed xmake with powershell/bash command, it should already be present

you can also update to dev version xmake update -s dev, then run xmake update --integrate to reinstall shell completion scripts if it does not work.

Auto completion of xmake is not supported in zsh.
There're some issues in the completion script for zsh.
I have to run source _xmake before using auto completion.

I did some changes here:

#compdef xmake xrepo

_xmake_zsh_complete() {
  local completions=("${(@f)$(XMAKE_SKIP_HISTORY=1 XMAKE_ROOT=y xmake lua private.utils.complete 0 "$words[@]")}")
  compadd -Q -S '' -- ${completions}
}

_xrepo_zsh_complete() {
  local completions=("${(@f)$(XMAKE_SKIP_HISTORY=1 XMAKE_ROOT=y xmake lua private.xrepo.complete 0 "$words[@]")}")
  compadd -Q -S '' -- ${completions}
}

compdef _xmake_zsh_complete xmake
compdef _xrepo_zsh_complete xrepo

Try this patch? but I did not test it.#7420

No, it has no effect. Auto completion can have different implementation, but #compdef xmake xrepo must be putted to the first line of the script, which declares this's a auto completion script.

try it again

Yes, it works now.

But I'm still having some issues, which may be an issue with the xmake lua private...

If I pass Tab after xmake build, I'll meet messed up codes.

xmake build ^[[0m^[[1;38;2;255;0;0;1merror: ^[[0mattempt to get length of a nil value (local 'values')^[[0m

These commands clean, install, package, run, uninstall, format have the same behaviour.

xmake lua should return the files in the current location as the values

I have tested it, and it works fine.
