REPL tab completion does not work through webrepl_client.py

Open resotek opened this issue 5 years ago • 2 comments

/webrepl_client.py tab completion is not working: Instead of the REPL printing completed variable and module names, the REPL prints six spaces, like a tab. The lack of tab completion substantially slows interactive work.

I agree, but have no access to my ESPs for the next 3 weeks. Needs new case handling before inp is send to websocket. PR welcome.

I would submit a pull request myself if I knew enough about this. As it is, it would require quite a lot of digging on my part to come up to speed and implement this, and consequently it would probably not be the elegant solution you would come up with. I hope you have time to do this. I'll remind you in couple of weeks if I don't see anything, and I'm happy to beta test it on my ESPs.
