I have installed CLI since beginning, so I am doing just updated to latest versions. At some point tab-completition stopped working. I tried to update to latest version today and install tab-completion again, here is what I got in terminal: tomas ~ $ mgnl tab-completion install ERR! Failed to set up tab completion due to missing write permissions in: ERR! ERR! - /etc/bash_completion.d ERR! - /Users/tomas/.mgnl ERR! ERR! Did you run installation as root? If so, you'd need to add the flag --unsafe-perm, but that's not recommended for security reasons. ERR! Tab autocompletion could not be installed, since none of typical related directories or files were found and accessible. tomas ~ $ sudo mgnl tab-completion install --unsafe-perm Password: error: unknown option `--unsafe-perm' tomas ~ $ sudo mgnl tab-completion install ERR! Failed to set up tab completion due to missing write permissions in: ERR! ERR! - /etc/bash_completion.d ERR! - /Users/tomas/.mgnl ERR! ERR! Did you run installation as root? If so, you'd need to add the flag --unsafe-perm, but that's not recommended for security reasons. ERR! Tab autocompletion could not be installed, since none of typical related directories or files were found and accessible. I don't have "source /usr/local/lib/node_modules/@magnolia/cli/extra/mgnl-autocompletion.sh" in my .profile Any idea? thanks! |

That seems to make no sense but apparently tomas doesn't have write permissions on his own home directory. What mgnl tab-completion install does is to try to install the autocomplete script first globally then, should that fails, in the user home dir. To do that, it first checks fs.accessSync(os.homedir(), fs.constants.W_OK) and that's where it fails in your case. |

Hi fgrilli thank you for your help, my node version is v6.2.0 |

Turned out to be an issue with Node version 6.2. node > fs.constants.W_OK will throw an error as constants is undefined, hence the failure. |
