Package: nodejs Version: 12.19.0~dfsg-1 Severity: wishlist Dear Maintainer,
Node.js supports generating a programmable tab-completion script for Bash by running `node --completion-bash`.[1] It would be nice if the nodejs package installed the script so that it would be used by Bash whenever the bash-completion package is installed. This could be done by: 1. Generating debian/nodejs.bash-completion containing either: a. The output of `node --completion-bash` run during build. b. `eval "$(nodejs --completion-bash)"` to run node when loaded. 2. Installing debian/nodejs.bash-completion to /usr/share/bash-completion/completions/node and /usr/share/bash-completion/completions/nodejs, preferably using dh_bash-completion from the bash-completion package (which already in Build-Depends, although not currently used).
