Take $X$ to be the set $\mathbb{Q}$, equipped with the discrete metricEvery Cauchy sequence is eventually constant: its terms must eventually have mutual distance in this metric less than $1/2$. Consequently $X$ is a complete metric space. Its topology is the discrete topology, since every singleton is a ball of radius $1/2$ and every subset is a union of such balls.

For the codomain use the usual subspace topology on $\mathbb{Q}$. The inverse image of any open set there is a subset of the discrete $X$, hence is open. Therefore $f$ is continuous and plainly surjective. A continuous image of a complete metric space need not be complete. The two occurrences of $\mathbb{Q}$ have different domain and codomain metrics.
