Enable Auto Completion for pip in Zsh

Last updated on August 8, 2017

Pip is a package management system for installing and managing Python software packages. To enable auto completion for pip in zsh, the documentation of pip suggests adding the following line to ~/.zshrc:

eval "`pip completion --zsh`"

However, merely having this line would not enable auto completion for pip3. To enable auto completion for pip3 as well, add the following line after the line above:

compctl -K _pip_completion pip3
