This is slightly unclean. Even tho it would otherwise be syntactically
valid, using $status as a command is very very very likely to be an
error, like
if not $status
We have reports of this surprisingly regularly, including #2773.
Because $status can only ever be a value from 0 to 255, it is also
very unlikely to be an actual command, and that command is very
unlikely to do what you want.
So we simply point the user towards the "conditions" help section,
that should explain things.
This is opt-in through a new feature flag "ampersand-nobg-in-token".
When this flag and "qmark-noglob" are enabled, this command no longer
needs quoting:
curl https://example.com/thing?foo=bar&duran=duran
Compared to the previous approach e1570a4 ("Let '&' only separate as
the first char of a word"), this has some advantages:
1. "&&" and "&>" are no longer affected. They are still special, even
if used between tokens without spaces, like "echo bar&>foo".
Maybe this is not really *better*, but it avoids risking to annoy
users by breaking the old variant.
2. "&" is still special if at the end of a token, like in "sleep 1&".
Word movement is not affected by the semantics change, so Alt-F and
friends still stop at every "&".
Currently, if a "return" is given outside of a function, we'd just
throw an error.
That always struck me as a bit weird, given that scripts can also
return a value.
So simply let "return" outside also exit the script, kinda like "exit"
does.
However, unlike "exit" it doesn't quit an interactive shell - it seems
weird to have "return" do that as well. It sets $status, so it can be
used to quickly set that, in case you want to test something.
In the variable handler, we just go through the entire thing and keep
every element once.
If there's a duplicate, we set it again, which calls the handler
again.
This takes a bit of time, to be paid on each startup. On my system,
with 100 already deduplicated elements, that's about 4ms (compared to
~17ms for adding them to $PATH).
It's also semantically more complicated - now this variable
specifically is deduplicated? Do we just want "unique" variables that
can't have duplicates?
However: This entirely removes the pathological case of appending to
$fish_user_paths in config.fish (which should be an FAQ entry!), and the implementation is quite simple.
This adds a hack to the parser. Given a command
echo "x$()y z"
we virtually insert double quotes before and after the command
substitution, so the command internally looks like
echo "x"$()"y z"
This hack allows to reuse the existing logic for handling (recursive)
command substitutions.
This makes the quoting syntax more complex; external highlighters
should consider adding this if possible.
The upside (more Bash compatibility) seems worth it.
Closes#159
In some setups (eg. macports) $tmpdir can expand to more than
100 symbols and tests fail with 'socket file name too long'
errors.
Using relative path to socket file fixes the issue.
* string: Allow `collect --no-empty` to avoid empty ellision
Currently we still have that issue where
test -n (thing | string collect)
can return true if `thing` doesn't print anything, because the
collected argument will still be removed.
So, what we do is allow `--no-empty` to be used, in which case we
print one empty argument.
This means
test -n (thing | string collect -n)
can now be safely used.
"no-empty" isn't the best name for this flag, but string's design
really incentivizes reusing names, and it's not *terrible*.
* Switch to `--allow-empty`
`--no-empty` does the exact opposite for `string split` and split0.
Since `-a`/`--allow-empty` already exists, use it.
The tmux-prompt test was failing when run more than once, because
XDG_DATA_HOME has a leading double-dot, causing the uvars file to
leak across sessions. Descend more deeply into our tmpdir to isolate
our XDG_DATA_HOME.
This reverts commit b56b230076.
which somehow made us miss repaints on uvar notifications.
The commit was a workaround for a polling bug which was later properly
fixed by 7c5b8b855 ("Use the uvar notifier pipe timestamp to avoid
excessive polling"), so it's no longer necessary.
Add a system test. If I had a better understanding of the bug I could
probably write a better test.
Fixes#8088
We used to warn about PATH and CDPATH that are not valid directories,
but only if they contain colons.
However, the warning was a false positive because we would split
those values by colons anyway. So there is nothing left we want to
warn about.
Fixes#8095
sigint2 would hang (probably because of different semantics in signal
delivery?)
wcstod isn't implemented correctly, so math can't do hex numbers.
OpenBSD only passes the filename as argv[0] and doesn't give us another feature I know of, so status fish-path can't work.
* Try to set LC_CTYPE to something UTF-8 capable
When fish is started with LC_CTYPE=C (even just effectively, often via
LC_ALL=C!), it's basically broken. There's no way to handle non-ASCII
characters with a C locale unless we want to write our
locale-independent replacements for all of the system functions.
Since we're not going to do that, let's try to find *some locale* for
LC_CTYPE.
We already do that in __fish_setlocale, but that's
- a bit of a weird thing that reads unstandardized system
configuration files
- allows setting locale to C explicitly
So it's still easily possible to end up in a broken configuration.
Now, the issue with this is that there is (AFAICT) no portable way to
get a list of all allowed locales and C.UTF-8 is not standardized, so
we have no one locale to fall back on and are forced to try a few. The
list we have here is quite arbitrary, but it's a start.
Python does something similar and only tries C.UTF-8, C.utf8 and
"UTF-8".
Once C.UTF-8 is (hopefully) standardized, that will just start
working (tm).
Note that we do not *export* the fixed LC_CTYPE variable, so external
programs still have to deal with the C locale, but we have no real
business messing with the user's environment.
To turn it off: $fish_allow_singlebyte_locale, if set to something true (like "1"),
will re-run the locale initialization and skip the bit where we force
LC_CTYPE to be utf8-capable.
This is mainly used in our tests, but might also be useful if people
are trying to do something weird.
The hope is that the noshebang test was fixed on old glibc
through e74b9d53df. Revert the previous optimistic attempts to
fix these through adding sleeps and subshells.
This reverts commit b3da0bd5a2.
This reverts commit 8a86d3452f.
This is an attempt to solve the test failures on Launchpad's CI.
I'm assuming when we do a redirection like
foo > file
and then try to execute `file` immediately afterwards, we either
haven't written it soon enough or closed the file, so we get a "text
file busy" error.
So, when we do that in a new fish the file should be closed once it
quits.
See #8021.
When you try to execute a file directly after you've written to it,
you might, on some systems, get a "text file busy" error.
So we unfortunately have to sleep to avoid it.
See #8021 for where this was added,
537b3f6cb1 for the same problem.
Now that `$last_pid` is never fish's pid, we no longer need to force
jobs to run in their own pgroup. Restore the job control behavior to
what it was prior, so that signals may be delivered properly in
non-interactive mode.
This reverts commit 3255999794
Prior to this change, a function with an on-job-exit event handler must be
added with the pgid of the job. But sometimes the pgid of the job is fish
itself (if job control is disabled) and the previous commit made last_pid
an actual pid from the job, instead of its pgroup.
Switch on-job-exit to accept any pid from the job (except fish itself).
This allows it to be used directly with $last_pid, except that it now
works if job control is off. This is implemented by "resolving" the pid to
the internal job id at the point the event handler is added.
Also switch to passing the last pid of the job, rather than its pgroup.
This aligns better with $last_pid.
It is possible to run a function when a process exits via `function
--on-process-exit`, or when a job exits via `function --on-job-exits`.
Internally these were distinguished by the pid in the event: if it was
positive, then it was a process exit. If negative, it represents a pgid
and is a job exit. If zero, it fires for both jobs and processes, which is
pretty weird.
Switch to tracking these explicitly. Separate out the --on-process-exit
and --on-job-exit event types into separate types. Stop negating pgids as
well.
This switches builtin_wait from waiting on jobs in the active job list, to
waiting on the wait handles. The wait handles may be either derived from
the job list itself, or from saved wait handles from jobs that exited in
the background.
Fixes#7210
Prior to this fix, an escaped character like \x41 (hex for ascii A)
was interpreted the same was as A, so that $\x41 would be the same
as $A. Fix this by inserting an INTERNAL_SEPARATOR before these escapes,
so that we no longer treat it as part of the variable name.
This also affects brackets; don't treat echo $foo\1331\135 the same as
echo $foo[1].
Fixes#7969
Just add some extra sleep time so it hopefully also works when the
CI system is overloaded. This succeeded >60 times in the CI, without
a single failure.
In case it legitimately fails again, we should provide simple steps
to reproduce the failure interactively (using "tmux attach").
The uvar issue only triggered because two fish are started - one is
running the tmux-complete script, the other one is running inside tmux.
We could reduce the complexity of this test by writing it in a
different language, like sh or python.
Reproducible at least on Linux, where the "named pipe" universal
variable notifier is used:
rm -rf build/test/xdg_config
XDG_CONFIG_HOME=build/test/xdg_config ./build/fish -c "xterm -e ./build/fish"
The child fish reacts to keyboard input with a noticeable initial
delay. This is because the universal variable file is polled over
a million times, even when I immediately press Control-D. This polling
prevents readb() from handling keyboard input.
Before commit 939aba02d ("Refactor input_common.cpp:readb"), readb()
reacted to keyboard input even when there were universal variable
notifications. Restore this behavior, but make sure to call the
universal variable notifier after the new "prepare_to_select" logic.
Maybe the problem is in the notifier but the old behavior was sane.
Fixes the problems described in
7a556ec6f2 (commitcomment-49773677)
Adding "-d uvars-file" to the reproducesr shows that we are checking
the uvar file repeatedly:
uvar-file: universal log sync
uvar-file: universal log sync elided based on fast stat()
uvar-file: universal log no modifications
This only uses the functions fish ships with, but still doesn't allow
any *customization*, which is the point of no-config.
This makes it a lot more usable, given that the actual normal prompt
and things are there.
This still doesn't set any colors, because we don't run
__fish_config_interactive because we don't read config.fish (any
config.fish), because that would run the snippets.
In many cases we currently discard escaped newlines, since they
are often unnecessary (when used around &|;). Escaped newlines
are useful for structuring argument lists. Allow them for variable
assignments since they are similar.
Closes#7955
This would print the default "Argument is invalid" error string, which
is *true* but not super obvious, because `test` doesn't always perform
numeric conversion, and that's the bit that failed here.
This refactors the behavior of string match with capture groups to
correctly handle multiple arguments. Now the variable capture applies to
the first match, as documented. Fixes#7938.
string match is documented as setting an unset variable if a capture group
is unmatched in an otherwise matched regex, and if the `--all` flag is not
provided. However prior to this fix, it instead set a variable containing
the empty string as a single value. Correct the implementation to match
the documentation.
Note that if the `--all` flag is provided we continue to set empty
strings, which is documented.
This removes the relative XDG paths, which could have potentially
confused tmux, and also starts the window with the correct size
instead of adjusting the size afterwards.
Fixes#7926.
Also switches the default status order for non-informative to the informative one:
stagedstate invalidstate dirtystate untrackedfiles stashstate
instead of
dirty staged stash untracked
Things like
```fish
complete command -n '__fish_seen_subcommand_from subcommand'
--force-files
```
would not be obeyed because we only checked force-files when there was
an option.
Fixes#7920.
This correctly sets $status when a builtin succeeds but its output fails;
for example if the output is redirected to a file and that write fails.
Fixes#7857
* math: Make function parentheses optional
It's a bit annoying to use parentheses here because that requires
quoting or escaping.
This allows the parens to be omitted, so
math sin pi
is the same as
math 'sin(pi)'
Function calls have the lowest precedence, so
math sin 2 + 6
is the same as
math 'sin(2 + 6)'

It's not super clear what $SHLVL is useful for, but the current
definition is essentially
"number of shells in the parent processes + 1"
which isn't *super useful*?
Bash's behavior here is a bit weird in that it increments $SHLVL
basically always, but since it auto-execs the last process it will
decrement it again, so in practice it's often not incremented.
E.g.
```
> echo $SHLVL
1
> bash -c 'echo $SHLVL; bash'
2
>> echo $SHLVL
2
```
Both bashes here end up having the same $SHLVL because this is
equivalent to `echo $SHLVL; exec bash`. Running `echo $SHLVL` and then
`bash -c 'echo $SHLVL'` in an interactive bash will have a different
result (1 and 2) because that doesn't *exec* the inner bash.
That's not something we want to get into, so what we do is increment
$SHLVL in every interactive fish. Non-interactive fish will simply
import the existing value.
That means if you had e.g. a bash that runs a fish script that ends up
opening a new fish session, you would have a $SHLVL of *2* - one for the
bash, and one for the inner fish.
We key this off is_interactive_session() (which can also be enabled
via `fish -i`) because it's easy and because `fish -i` is asking for
fish to be, in some form, "interactive".
That means most of the time $SHLVL will be "how many shells am I deep,
how often do I have to `exit`", except for when you specifically asked
for a fish to be "interactive". If that's a problem, we can rethink it.
Fixes#7864.
This cleans up some exit code processing. Previously a failed exec
would produce exit code 125 unconditionally, while a failed posix_spawn
would produce exit code 1 (!).
With this change, fish reports exit code 126 for not-executable, and 127
for file-not-found. This matches bash.
We have no idea why this was even a thing. For now simply set it to
"all"/"full" (why these two names? no idea) at startup and allow
changing it later.
Settting it *immediately* when defining the variable sets it too soon
because we don't have the interactive signal handlers
enabled (including the one for SIGTTOU), so let's first settle for
this little piece of awkwardness.
This needs widespread testing, so we merge it early, immediately after
the release.

(and probably numerous others)
I believe they are both equivalent for our particular purpose, since we
only care about enforcing the size fish sees.
`resize-window` was only introduced in tmux 2.9, which isn't available
at least on Ubuntu 18.04 LTS (currently using tmux 2.6) and probably
many others.
(Clever idea to use tmux here!)
Consider
$ complete -c foo -a 'aab aaB' -f
$ foo A<TAB>
since 28d67c8 we would insert the common prefix AND show the pager.
Due to case-insensitive comparison, "b/B" was considered to be part
of the prefix. Since the prefix is added to each pager item [1]
we get wrong results. Fix this by removing the insensitive comparison
between completions - I don't think it was of much use anyway.
Commandline tokens are still matched case-insensitively, this is
just about completions.
Test this by running interactive fish inside tmux (pexpect's terminal
emulation not have enough capabilities). Also add tests for recent
interactive regressions #7526 and #7738.
Closes#3978
[1]: b38a23a would solve this differently by giving every pager item
its own prefix, but was reverted since it needs more fixes.
This should cover most cases - the user didn't install the docs and is
trying to view the man page via __fish_print_help, so we don't have a
way to show anything.
But `help thing` will fall back to the online version of the docs,
which should work if there's an internet connection.
See #7824.
This is broken on OpenBSD because it apparently doesn't have a /proc
we can query, so it just gives "fish".
Since it's unnecessary in this context just skip it.
* Rewrite the real file if history file is a symlink
When the history file is a symbolic link, `fish` used to overwrite
the link with a real file whenever it saved history. This makes
it follow the symlink and overwrite the real file instead.
The same issue was fixed for the `fish_variables` file in 622f2868e
from https://github.com/fish-shell/fish-shell/pull/7728.
This makes `fish_history` behave in the same way. The implementation
is nearly identical.
Since the tests for the two issues are so similar, I combined them
together and slightly expanded the older test.
This also addresses https://github.com/fish-shell/fish-shell/issues/7553.
* Add user-facing error when history renaming fails
Currently, when history file renaming fails, no message is shown to the
user. This happens, for instance, if the history file is a symlink
pointing to another filesystem.
This copies code (with a bit of variation, after reviewer comments) from
589eb34571/src/env_universal_common.cpp (L486-L491)
into `history.cpp`, so that a message is shown to the user.
* fixup! Rewrite the real file if history file is a symlink
This reverts commit e240d81ff8 and
introduces a more compatible method of finding newly added fish scripts
to syntax check.
`find -newer` is the original and is supported by everything under the
sun (including FreeBSD, NetBSD, Solaris, OpenIndiana, macOS 10.10, WSL,
and more), and if not, the tests will succeed anyway. `find -mnewer` was
added later around the time `find -cnewer` and co (which checks the
creation date rather than the modification date) was introduced, but
apparently the GNU version of coreutils never introduced the `-mnewer`
alias for `-newer`.
Yes, this is hacky and yes it would be ideal if the build system is the
one that picked which tests to run rather than the test itself picking.
But let's not pretend that our tests are idealogically ideal or pure
right now and until we fix the mess that is our CMake test integration
(e.g. use ctest and configure each test to be run separately with
configurable payloads, etc) eight seconds is still eight seconds, and
again, the CI isn't affected.
My find (GNU findutils 4.8.0) prints
> find: unknown predicate `-mnewer'
So we would have to test for support.
Also this is *super* hacky - tests aren't supposed to keep files
around, this is something you would do in the build system.
This reverts commit ddd0e28b4f.
Only check fish files that have been modified since the last time they
were checked. (This continues with the assumption that we are testing
for broken /usr/share fish scripts and not breakage of the fish parser,
which is covered by all the other tests.)
This saves 8 seconds on an NVMe disk under WSL. Won't affect integrity
of CI runs, which start with a blank slate each time.
Apparently the grep on FreeBSD doesn't do \s or \t. Since we're
looking for an actual tab, just give it an actual tab.
See https://builds.sr.ht/~faho/job/448496.
This `set -e` had a cartesian product that caused it to remove the
indexes separately, so the later indexes were off - removing the first
and then the second ends up removing the first and then the
old-*third* which is now the second.
Just quote the expansion so it runs in one go.
Fixes#7776
The user may write for example:
echo foo >&5
and fish would try to output to file descriptor 5, within the fish process
itself. This has unpredictable effects and isn't useful. Make this an
error.
Note that the reverse is "allowed" but ignored:
echo foo 5>&1
this conceptually dup2s stdout to fd 5, but since no builtin writes to fd
5 we ignore it.
fish_indent used to increment the indentation level whenever we saw an escaped
newline. This broke because of recent changes to parse_util_compute_indents().
Since parse_util_compute_indents() function already indents continuations
there is not much to do for fish_indent - we can simply query the indentation
level of the newline. Reshuffle the code since we need to pass the offset
of the newline. Maybe this can even be simplified further.
Fixes#7720
Otherwise this would look weird if you had, say, a tab in there.
See #7716.
(note that this doesn't handle e.g. zero-width-joiners, because those
aren't currently escaped. we might want to add an escape mode for
unprintable characters, but for combining codepoints that's tricky!)
After commit 6dd6a57c60, 3 remaining
builtins were affected by uint8_t overflow: `exit`, `return`, and
`functions --query`.
This commit:
- Moves the overflow check from `builtin_set_query` to `builtin_run`.
- Removes a conflicting int -> uint8_t conversion in `builtin_return`.
- Adds tests for the 3 remaining affected builtins.
- Simplifies the wording for the documentation for `set --query`.
- Does not change documentation for `functions --query`, because it does
not state the exit code in its API.
- Updates the CHANGELOG to reflect the change to all builtins.
Prior to this fix, if stdin were explicitly closed, then builtins would
silently fail. For example:
count <&-
would just fail with status 1. Remove this limitation and allow each
builtin to handle a closed stdin how it sees fit.
