how to add maven autocompletion?

[romkatv]

1. What do you type prior to pressing Tab?
2. Which completions are you being offered when you press Tab?
3. Which completion that you would like to see is missing from the list?
4. What is the output of the following command?

() {
  emulate -L zsh -o xtrace -o err_return
  local comp=${_comps[mvn]}
  [[ -n $comp ]]
  autoload +X -Uz -- $comp || true
  : ${(D)functions_source[$comp]}
}

1. mvn space then tab

clean -- remove all files generated by the previous build
compile -- compile the source code of the project
test -- run tests using a suitable unit testing framework
package -- take the compiled code and package it in its distributable format, such as a JAR
integration-test -- process and deploy the package if necessary into an environment where integration tests can be run
verify -- run any checks to verify the package is valid and meets quality criteria
install -- install the package into the local repository, for use as a dependency in other projects locally
deploy -- done in an integration or release environment, copies the final package to the remote repository
site -- generates the projects site documentation
site-deploy -- deploys the generated site documentation to the specified web server

3. something like here https://github.com/juven/maven-bash-completion

+(anon):2> local comp=_mvn
+(anon):3> [[ -n _mvn ]]
+(anon):4> autoload +X -Uz -- _mvn
+(anon):4> true
+(anon):5> : '~/.cache/zsh4humans/v5/zsh-completions/src/_mvn'

+(anon):5> : '~/.cache/zsh4humans/v5/zsh-completions/src/_mvn'

This line is saying that completions for mvn come from https://github.com/zsh-users/zsh-completions/blob/master/src/_mvn. If you want them to be extended, consider filing a feature request against that project or sending a PR.

If you can find better completions for mvn somewhere on GitHub, I can modify zsh4humans to use them instead of what I linked above.

Thanks. The better completions I can find is https://github.com/juven/maven-bash-completion.

Have you tried it? How exactly did you load it? Can you confirm that it works better?
