def complete(self, text=None, line_buffer=None, cursor_pos=None):
        """Find completions for the given text and line context.

        This is called successively with state == 0, 1, 2, ... until it
        returns None.  The completion should begin with 'text'.

        Note that both the text and the line_buffer are optional, but at least
        one of them must be given.

        Parameters
        ----------
          text : string, optional
            Text to perform the completion on.  If not given, the line buffer
            is split using the instance's CompletionSplitter object.

          line_buffer : string, optional
            If not given, the completer attempts to obtain the current line
            buffer via readline.  This keyword allows clients which are
            requesting for text completions in non-readline contexts to inform
            the completer of the entire text.

          cursor_pos : int, optional
            Index of the cursor in the full line buffer.  Should be provided by
            remote frontends where kernel has no access to frontend state.

        Returns
        -------
        text : str
          Text that was actually used in the completion.

        matches : list
          A list of completion matches.
