source <(ecctl generate completions) is not working

[TomonoriSoejima]

I ran into this weird issue and hopefully, someone may find it useful in case your .bash_profile is messy like mine 😅

so when I added source <(ecctl generate completions) into my .bash_profile and typed ecctl in my terminal, I was getting no suggestions.

Thus I ended up like this as a workaround like this.

In my .bash_profile I added extra block below because I ran into this issue

if [ -f $(brew --prefix)/etc/bash_completion ]; then
    . $(brew --prefix)/etc/bash_completion

fi

# source <(ecctl generate completions)

. /Users/surfer/Dropbox/Mackup/ecctl.completion

/Users/surfer/Dropbox/Mackup/ecctl.completion is created like this.

$ ecctl generate completions > /Users/surfer/Dropbox/Mackup/ecctl.completion
