Tab Completion for Zsh

Using Ansible

For easy tab completion with Minikube, we suggest using the gantsign.antigen role (you need to set this up for each user).

- hosts: servers
  roles:
    - role: gantsign.minikube

    - role: gantsign.antigen
      users:
        - username: example
          antigen_libraries:
            - name: oh-my-zsh
          antigen_bundles:
            # Minikube plugin for Oh My Zsh
            - name: minikube

Using Antigen

If you want to use Antigen directly, add this to your Antigen config:

antigen use oh-my-zsh
antigen bundle minikube

Manual Configuration

For manual setup in Zsh, add this to your .zshrc file:

eval "$(minikube completion zsh)"
