+@node Commands In Python
+@subsubsection Commands In Python
+
+@cindex commands in python
+@cindex python commands
+@tindex Command
+@tindex gdb.Command
+You can implement new @value{GDBN} CLI commands in Python. A CLI
+command is implemented using an instance of the @code{gdb.Command}
+class, most commonly using a subclass.
+
+@defmethod Command __init__ name @var{command-class} @r{[}@var{completer-class} @var{prefix}@r{]}
+The object initializer for @code{Command} registers the new command
+with @value{GDBN}. This initializer is normally invoked from the
+subclass' own @code{__init__} method.
+
+@var{name} is the name of the command. If @var{name} consists of
+multiple words, then the initial words are looked for as prefix
+commands. In this case, if one of the prefix commands does not exist,
+an exception is raised.
+
+There is no support for multi-line commands.
+
+@var{command-class} should be one of the @samp{COMMAND_} constants
+defined below. This argument tells @value{GDBN} how to categorize the
+new command in the help system.
+
+@var{completer-class} is an optional argument. If given, it should be
+one of the @samp{COMPLETE_} constants defined below. This argument
+tells @value{GDBN} how to perform completion for this command. If not
+given, @value{GDBN} will attempt to complete using the object's
+@code{complete} method (see below); if no such method is found, an
+error will occur when completion is attempted.
+
+@var{prefix} is an optional argument. If @code{True}, then the new
+command is a prefix command; sub-commands of this command may be
+registered.
+
+The help text for the new command is taken from the Python
+documentation string for the command's class, if there is one. If no
+documentation string is provided, the default value ``This command is
+not documented.'' is used.
+@end defmethod
+
+@defmethod Command dont_repeat
+By default, a @value{GDBN} command is repeated when the user enters a
+blank line at the command prompt. A command can suppress this
+behavior by invoking the @code{dont_repeat} method. This is similar
+to the user command @code{dont-repeat}, see @ref{Define, dont-repeat}.
+@end defmethod
+
+@defmethod Command invoke argument from_tty
+This method is called by @value{GDBN} when this command is invoked.
+
+@var{argument} is a string. It is the argument to the command, after
+leading and trailing whitespace has been stripped.
+
+@var{from_tty} is a boolean argument. When true, this means that the
+command was entered by the user at the terminal; when false it means
+that the command came from elsewhere.
+
+If this method throws an exception, it is turned into a @value{GDBN}
+@code{error} call. Otherwise, the return value is ignored.
+@end defmethod
+
+@defmethod Command complete text word
+This method is called by @value{GDBN} when the user attempts
+completion on this command. All forms of completion are handled by
+this method, that is, the @key{TAB} and @key{M-?} key bindings, and
+the @code{complete} command.
+
+The arguments @var{text} and @var{word} are both strings. @var{text}
+holds the complete command line up to the cursor's location.
+@var{word} holds the last word of the command line; this is computed
+using a word-breaking heuristic.
+
+The @code{complete} method can return several values:
+@itemize @bullet
+@item
+If the return value is a sequence, the contents of the sequence are
+used as the completions. It is up to @code{complete} to ensure that the
+contents actually do complete the word. A zero-length sequence is
+allowed, it means that there were no completions available. Only
+string elements of the sequence are used; other elements in the
+sequence are ignored.
+
+@item
+If the return value is one of the @samp{COMPLETE_} constants defined
+below, then the corresponding @value{GDBN}-internal completion
+function is invoked, and its result is used.
+
+@item
+All other results are treated as though there were no available
+completions.
+@end itemize
+@end defmethod
+
+
+When a new command is registered, it must be declared as a member of
+some general class of commands. This is used to classify top-level
+commands in the on-line help system; note that prefix commands are not
+listed under their own category but rather that of their top-level
+command. The available classifications are represented by constants
+defined in the @code{gdb} module:
+
+@table @code
+@findex COMMAND_NONE
+@findex gdb.COMMAND_NONE
+@item COMMAND_NONE
+The command does not belong to any particular class. A command in
+this category will not be displayed in any of the help categories.
+
+@findex COMMAND_RUNNING
+@findex gdb.COMMAND_RUNNING
+@item COMMAND_RUN
+The command is related to running the inferior. For example,
+@code{start}, @code{step}, and @code{continue} are in this category.
+Type @code{help running} at the @value{GDBN} prompt to see a list of
+commands in this category.
+
+@findex COMMAND_DATA
+@findex gdb.COMMAND_DATA
+@item COMMAND_VARS
+The command is related to data or variables. For example,
+@code{call}, @code{find}, and @code{print} are in this category. Type
+@code{help data} at the @value{GDBN} prompt to see a list of commands
+in this category.
+
+@findex COMMAND_STACK
+@findex gdb.COMMAND_STACK
+@item COMMAND_STACK
+The command has to do with manipulation of the stack. For example,
+@code{backtrace}, @code{frame}, and @code{return} are in this
+category. Type @code{help stack} at the @value{GDBN} prompt to see a
+list of commands in this category.
+
+@findex COMMAND_FILES
+@findex gdb.COMMAND_FILES
+@item COMMAND_FILES
+This class is used for file-related commands. For example,
+@code{file}, @code{list} and @code{section} are in this category.
+Type @code{help files} at the @value{GDBN} prompt to see a list of
+commands in this category.
+
+@findex COMMAND_SUPPORT
+@findex gdb.COMMAND_SUPPORT
+@item COMMAND_SUPPORT
+This should be used for ``support facilities'', generally meaning
+things that are useful to the user when interacting with @value{GDBN},
+but not related to the state of the inferior. For example,
+@code{help}, @code{make}, and @code{shell} are in this category. Type
+@code{help support} at the @value{GDBN} prompt to see a list of
+commands in this category.
+
+@findex COMMAND_STATUS
+@findex gdb.COMMAND_STATUS
+@item COMMAND_INFO
+The command is an @samp{info}-related command, that is, related to the
+state of @value{GDBN} itself. For example, @code{info}, @code{macro},
+and @code{show} are in this category. Type @code{help status} at the
+@value{GDBN} prompt to see a list of commands in this category.
+
+@findex COMMAND_BREAKPOINTS
+@findex gdb.COMMAND_BREAKPOINTS
+@item COMMAND_BREAKPOINT
+The command has to do with breakpoints. For example, @code{break},
+@code{clear}, and @code{delete} are in this category. Type @code{help
+breakpoints} at the @value{GDBN} prompt to see a list of commands in
+this category.
+
+@findex COMMAND_TRACEPOINTS
+@findex gdb.COMMAND_TRACEPOINTS
+@item COMMAND_TRACE
+The command has to do with tracepoints. For example, @code{trace},
+@code{actions}, and @code{tfind} are in this category. Type
+@code{help tracepoints} at the @value{GDBN} prompt to see a list of
+commands in this category.
+
+@findex COMMAND_OBSCURE
+@findex gdb.COMMAND_OBSCURE
+@item COMMAND_OBSCURE
+The command is only used in unusual circumstances, or is not of
+general interest to users. For example, @code{checkpoint},
+@code{fork}, and @code{stop} are in this category. Type @code{help
+obscure} at the @value{GDBN} prompt to see a list of commands in this
+category.
+
+@findex COMMAND_MAINTENANCE
+@findex gdb.COMMAND_MAINTENANCE
+@item COMMAND_MAINTENANCE
+The command is only useful to @value{GDBN} maintainers. The
+@code{maintenance} and @code{flushregs} commands are in this category.
+Type @code{help internals} at the @value{GDBN} prompt to see a list of
+commands in this category.
+@end table
+
+
+A new command can use a predefined completion function, either by
+specifying it via an argument at initialization, or by returning it
+from the @code{complete} method. These predefined completion
+constants are all defined in the @code{gdb} module:
+
+@table @code
+@findex COMPLETE_NONE
+@findex gdb.COMPLETE_NONE
+@item COMPLETE_NONE
+This constant means that no completion should be done.
+
+@findex COMPLETE_FILENAME
+@findex gdb.COMPLETE_FILENAME
+@item COMPLETE_FILENAME
+This constant means that filename completion should be performed.
+
+@findex COMPLETE_LOCATION
+@findex gdb.COMPLETE_LOCATION
+@item COMPLETE_LOCATION
+This constant means that location completion should be done.
+@xref{Specify Location}.
+
+@findex COMPLETE_COMMAND
+@findex gdb.COMPLETE_COMMAND
+@item COMPLETE_COMMAND
+This constant means that completion should examine @value{GDBN}
+command names.
+
+@findex COMPLETE_SYMBOL
+@findex gdb.COMPLETE_SYMBOL
+@item COMPLETE_SYMBOL
+This constant means that completion should be done using symbol names
+as the source.
+@end table
+
+The following code snippet shows how a trivial CLI command can be
+implemented in Python:
+
+@smallexample
+class HelloWorld (gdb.Command):
+ """Greet the whole world."""
+
+ def __init__ (self):
+ super (HelloWorld, self).__init__ ("hello-world", gdb.COMMAND_OBSCURE)
+
+ def invoke (self, arg, from_tty):
+ print "Hello, World!"
+
+HelloWorld ()
+@end smallexample
+
+The last line instantiates the class, and is necessary to trigger the
+registration of the command with @value{GDBN}. Depending on how the
+Python code is read into @value{GDBN}, you may need to import the
+@code{gdb} module explicitly.
