Every builtin or function shipped with fish supports flag -h or --help to
print a slightly condensed version of its manpage.
Some of those help messages are longer than a typical screen;
this commit pipes the help to a pager to make it easier to read.
As in other places in fish we assume that either $PAGER or "less" is a
valid pager and use that.
In three places (error messages for bg, break and continue) the help is
printed to stderr instead of stdout. To make sure the error message is
visible in the pager, we pass it to builtin_print_help, every call of which
needs to be updated.
Fixes#6227
This runs build_tools/style.fish, which runs clang-format on C++, fish_indent on fish and (new) black on python.
If anything is wrong with the formatting, we should fix the tools, but automated formatting is worth it.
This prevents the `disown` builtin from directly removing jobs out of
the jobs list to prevent sanity issues, as `disown` may be called within
the context of a subjob (e.g. in a function or block) in which case the
parent job might not yet be done with the reference to the child job.
Instead, a flag is set and the parser removes the job from the list only
after the entire execution chain has completed.
Closes#5720.
Directly access the job list without the intermediate job_iterator_t,
and remove functions that are ripe for abuse by modifying a local
enumeration of the same list instead of operating on the iterators
directly (e.g. proc.cpp iterates jobs, and mid-iteration calls
parser::job_remove(j) with the job (and not the iterator to the job),
causing an invisible invalidation of the pre-existing local iterators.
* Convert JOB_* enums to scoped enums
* Convert standalone job_is_* functions to member functions
* Convert standalone job_{promote, signal, continue} to member functions
* Convert standolen job_get{,_from_pid} to `job_t` static functions
* Reduce usage of JOB_* enums outside of proc.cpp by using new
`job_t::is_foo()` const helper methods instead.
This patch is only a refactor and should not change any functionality or
behavior (both observed and unobserved).
This brings back expansion of `%n` where `n` is a job id, but not as a
general parser syntax. This makes `jobs -p %n` work, which can be used
as part of the job control command chain, i.e.
```
cat &
fg (jobs -p %1)
```
fg/bg/wait can either be wrapped in a function to call `jobs -p` for
`%n` arguments, or they can be updated to take `%n` arguments
themselves.
This changes all of the builtins to behave like `string` to return
STATUS_INVALID_ARGS (121) if the args passed to the command don't make
sense. Also change several of the builtins to use the existing symbols
(e.g., STATUS_CMD_OK and STATUS_CMD_ERROR) rather than hardcoded "0"
and "1" for consistency and to make it easier to find such values in
the future.
Fixes#3985
The existing code is inconsistent, and in a couple of cases wrong, about
dealing with strings that are not valid ints. For example, there are
locations that call wcstol() and check errno without first setting errno
to zero. Normalize the code to a consistent pattern. This is mostly to
deal with inconsistencies between BSD, GNU, and other UNIXes.
This does make some syntax more liberal. For example `echo $PATH[1 .. 3]`
is now valid due to uniformly allowing leading and trailing whitespace
around numbers. Whereas prior to this change you would get a "Invalid
index value" error. Contrast this with `echo $PATH[ 1.. 3 ]` which was
valid and still is.
The use of wcstoimax causes certain out-of-range values
to be silently truncated (e.g. when converted to a pid),
and is incompatible with FreeBSD (see #626)
This reverts commit 6faa2f9866.
Fixes various spots throughout fish where broken strtoi checks
were converting empty strings to zero. Zero is not a valid pid and
this was causing breakage as well when input.
Nix fish_wcstoi - wcstoimax does the same thing.
Improve comments and some general cleanup.
Now that the IWYU cleanup has been merged compile all, not just a couple, of
the builtin modules independent of builtin.cpp. That is, no longer `#include
builtin_NAME.cpp` in builtin.cpp. This is more consistent, more in line with
what developers expect, and is likely to reduce mistakes.
Reduces lint errors from 384 to 336 (-13%). Line count from 6307 to 4988 (-21%).
Another step in resolving issue #2902.
Remove the "make iwyu" build target. Move the functionality into the
recently introduced lint.fish script. Fix a lot, but not all, of the
include-what-you-use errors. Specifically, it fixes all of the IWYU errors
on my OS X server but only removes some of them on my Ubuntu 14.04 server.
Fixes#2957
This change eliminates global variables like stdout_buffer. Instead we wrap up
the IO information into a new struct io_streams_t, and thread that through
every builtin. This makes the intent clearer, gives us a place to hang new IO
data, and eliminates the ugly global state management like builtin_push_io.
This change moves source files into a src/ directory,
and puts object files into an obj/ directory. The Makefile
and xcode project are updated accordingly.
