Example: ace editor custom autocomplete

var langTools = ace.require('ace/ext/language_tools');

// data stub:
var sqlTables = [

  { name: 'customers', description: 'Customer entries' },
  { name: 'companies', description: 'Legal entities of customers' },
  { name: 'loginLog', description: 'Log entries for user log-ins' },
  { name: 'products', description: 'Products offered in the system' },

];

// create a completer object with a required callback function:
var sqlTablesCompleter = {
  getCompletions: function(editor, session, pos, prefix, callback) {
    callback(null, sqlTables.map(function(table) {
      return {
        caption: table.description,
	value: table.name,
	meta: "Table"
      };
    }));	
  }
};
// finally, bind to langTools:
langTools.addCompleter(sqlTablesCompleter);
