Spyder: `%matplotlib` is not showing when pressing tab for autocompletation in IPython terminal
Description
%matplotlib is not showing when pressing tab for autocompletation in IPython terminal.
What steps will reproduce the problem?
- Typing
%mat+TAB - Nothing is shown 3.
What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
Typing %ma+TAB shows %macro %magic %%markdown but not %matplotlib
Please provide any additional information below
Running Spyder with IPython 6.0 does it work.
It also works with Jupyter QTConsole independently, so it seems related to Spyder and IPython 6.1 somehow.
Version and main components
- Spyder Version: 3.2.1

@dalthviz, can you reproduce this on Windows?

@ccordoba12 running with IPython 5.3 and 6.1 works for me in Spyder 3.2.1, although I tested this in Python 3.6.1:

Please match the exact same environment as @rubennj and try again.

It also worked with Python 3.6.2 and the dependencies listed:

Thanks @dalthviz!
@rubennj, I'm closing this issue because Spyder doesn't have any influence on code completion in the IPython console.
I guess this is an installation issue.

Is matplotlib installed in your tests? I try a new enviroment without it and the autocompletation works, but when matplotlib is installed then the issue appears.

@dalthviz?

Yep I installed matplotlib. This is the list of the packages in the env where I tested, maybe @rubennj could you find something that differs from the env where you are seeing the problem?

OK, I think I got it, @dalthviz. I had enabled the option _"Automatically load Pylab and NumPy modules"_.
Populating the interactive namespace from numpy and matplotlib
When this option is on, I can't get the autocomplete for %matplotlib.
Nevertheless, even if it is not shown, it can be executed and it works.

You're right, now I can reproduce this bug. A simpler way to do it is by
running
%pylab
in a console, which is what Spyder does for you when you activate that
option.
However, this is a bug in IPython, not in Spyder, so please report it there:

I will open an issue in IPython then.
Thanks @ccordoba12 and @dalthviz for the effort to catch it.

That's a side effect of https://github.com/ipython/ipython/pull/10542, basically %pylab injects matplotlib into the namespace and thus is not completed as a magic anymore. This was requested in https://github.com/ipython/ipython/issues/4877, We should probably be less extream and still complete to magics if the text starts with %/%%.
