  A Commander for modern Go CLI interactions

In this post we explain how to implement custom auto-completion ability for a CLI tool written in Go and using Cobra. We start by walking through the creation of a tiny mixologist app using Cobra. The mixologist app is a CLI tool written in Go using the Cobra framework that can make cocktails from a list of ingredients and uses custom auto-completion to improve the user experience. For reference, the code for the CLI application can be found here: https://github.com/rafttio/mixologist
