Motivation for this change
Installing awscli2 and trying to use tab-completion fails and prints an error:
As far as I can tell, awscli's official packages come pre-populated with their completion database (
awscli/data/ac.index
) pre-populated. In this PR, I've run it in postBuild.You can test the results from the build-directory with
env COMP_LINE='aws athena get' result/bin/aws_completer
I'm not a python developer / nix developer / aws developer, so it's entirely possible I've missed something silly, let me know if so.
