# devbox completion bash

> Generate the autocompletion script for the bash shell.

This script depends on the 'bash-completion' package. If it is not installed already, you can
install it via your OS's package manager.

To load completions in your current shell session:

```bash theme={null}
source <(devbox completion bash)
```

To load completions for every new session, execute once:

## Linux[​](#linux "Direct link to Linux")

```bash theme={null}
devbox completion bash > /etc/bash_completion.d/devbox
```

## macOS[​](#macos "Direct link to macOS")

```bash theme={null}
devbox completion bash > \
  $(brew --prefix)/etc/bash_completion.d/devbox
```

You will need to start a new shell for this setup to take effect.

```bash theme={null}
devbox completion bash
```
