When I use zsh and type sudo zypper install then TAB, zypper is launched and I cannot intereact with the shell for up to 30 seconds sometimes, the fix I was using was zstyle ':completion:*:zypper:*' use-cache on but that is no longer working.
I am wondering how I can make it work instantly like in bash
Find out what zsh does differently, submit a fix or at least a bug report.
I had the same problem, but it was related to the enabled option:
ENABLE_CORRECTION="true"
in my ~/.zshrc config. I just commented it out and the autocomplete started working fast, just like before.
so the issue was it was generating the cache whenever autocomplete was called so i made it pre-generate the cache when the shell is launched.
add this to your .zshrc
function zypper_prepare_cache(){
_zypp_all_raw=$(zypper -x -q --no-refresh se | grep '<solvable' | cut -d \" -f 2,4)
_zypp_all=($(echo $_zypp_all_raw | grep 'installed' | cut -d\" -f 2))
_zypp_not_installed=($(echo $_zypp_all_raw | grep 'not-installed' | cut -d\" -f 2 ))
_zypp_installed=($(echo $_zypp_all_raw | grep '^installed' | cut -d\" -f 2 ))
_store_cache ZYPPER_ALL_RAW _zypp_all_raw _zypp_all _zypp_not_installed _zypp_installed
}
(&>/dev/null zypper_prepare_cache & )
