Ask the system where utilities are available with confstr (POSIX).
This is the same string printed by `getconf PATH`, which likely
includes more directories.
For some reason, we have two places where a variable can be read-only:
- By key in env.cpp:is_read_only(), which is checked via set*
- By flag on the actual env_var_t, which is checked e.g. in
parse_execution
The latter didn't happen for non-electric variables like hostname,
because they used the default constructor, because they were
constructed via operator[] (or some such C++-iness).
This caused for-loops to crash on an assert if they used a
non-electric read-only var like $hostname or $SHLVL.
Instead, we explicitly set the flag.
We might want to remove one of the two read-only checks, or something?
Fixes#5548.
This requires threading environment_t through many places, such as completions
and history. We introduce null_environment_t for when the environment isn't
important.
@ridiculousfish had introduced this in 3a45cad12e
to work around an issue with Coverity Scan where it couldn't tell the
mutex was correctly locked, but even with the `fish_mutex_t` hack, it
still emits the same warnings, so there's no pointing in keeping it.
Cleaned up the code to no longer replicate in fishscript what fish
already does (and caches to boot) in C++ in setting up the paths to the
user configuration directory.
Also introduced a `$__fish_user_data_dir` instead of the sporadic
definitions of `$userdatadir` that may or may not go through
`XDG_DATA_HOME`.
* Debug level 3: describe all commands being executed (this is, after all,
a shell and one can argue that this is the most important debug
information avaliable)
* Debug level 4: details of execution, mainly fork vs no-fork and io
handling
Also introduced j->preview() to print a short descriptor of the job
based on the head of the first process so we don't overwhelm with
needless repitition, but also so that we don't have to rely on
distinguishing between repeated, non-unique/non-monotonic job ids that
are often recycled within a single "execution cycle" (pressing enter
once).
In private mode, access to previous history is blocked and new history
does not persist and is only available for the duration of the current
session.
This mode can be used when it is not desirable for commandline history
to leak into a session, e.g. via autocomplete or when it is desirable to
test the behavior of fish in the absence of history items without
permanently clearing the history.
I'm sure there are a lot more features that can be incorporated into
private mode, such as restricting access to certain user-specific
configuration files, etc.
This addresses a lot of the concerns raised in #1363 (which was later
changed to track mosh-specific problems). See also #102.
This switches quoted expansion like "$foo" to use foo's delimiter instead of
space. The delimiter is space for normal variables and colonf or path variables.
Expansions like "$PATH" will now expand using ':'.
This commit begins to bake in a notion of path-style variables.
Prior to this fix, fish would export arrays as ASCII record separator
delimited, except for a whitelist (PATH, CDPATH, MANPATH). This is
surprising and awkward for other programs to deal with, and there's no way
to get similar behavior for other variables like GOPATH or LD_LIBRARY_PATH.
This commit does the following:
1. Exports all arrays as colon delimited strings, instead of RS.
2. Introduces a notion of "path variable." A path variable will be
"colon-delimited" which means it gets colon-separated in quoted expansion,
and automatically splits on colons. In this commit we only do the exporting
part.
Colons are not escaped in exporting; this is deliberate to support uses
like
`set -x PYTHONPATH "/foo:/bar"`
which ought to work (and already do, we don't want to make a compat break
here).
This switches fish to a "virtual" PWD, where it no longer uses getcwd to
discover its PWD but instead synthesizes it based on normalizing cd against
the $PWD variable.
Both pwd and $PWD contain the virtual path. pwd is taught about -P to
return the physical path, and -L the logical path (which is the default).
Fixes#3350
Prior to this change, env_get_pwd_slash() would try to infer the PWD from
getcwd() if $PWD were missing. But this results env_get_pwd_slash() doing
something radically different than $PWD, and also is a lot of code for a
scenario that cannot be reliably reproduced. Just return "/" in this case.
There's been no reproducible case entered for #5080, but the stack trace
indicates the problem is with env_get_pwd_slash() returning an empty
string, which isn't a string that terminates in `/`.
In addition to making the failure case to return the path `./` (which
has the benefit of having the same meaning as $PWD), trying a little bit
harder to retrieve the real PWD by using getcwd(3). While
get_current_dir(3) is documented as relying on PWD, getcwd(3) does not
mention any such caveats, so it's possible that it will work even if
something is breaking PWD.
Just a thought, but it's possible if due to some recursion PWD surpassed
some predetermined value (maybe PATH_MAX) that PWD (on certain platforms
or under certain enivronments) won't be set (hence the code that deals
with ERANGE errors from the getcwd(3) call).
Closes#5080.
This was done in share/config.fish, but leads to surprising results if
that isn't read - e.g. because someone just built fish in the git
directory to test it without installing.
It's also not something that is any more or less complicated.
For compatibility, keep it in config.fish as well for the time being.
This switches the universal variables file from a machine-specific
name to the fixed '.config/fish/fish_universal_variables'. The old file
name is migrated if necessary.
Fixes#1912
The previous commit caused the tests to fail since env_remove() was
returning a blanket `!0` when a variable couldn't be unset because it
didn't exist in the first place. This caused the wrong message to be
emitted since the code clashed with a return code for `env_set()`.
Added `ENV_NOT_FOUND` to signify that the variable requested unset
didn't exist in the first place, but _not_ printing the error message
currently so as not to break existing behavior before checking if this
is something we want.
The newly added `:` command is implemented as a function (to avoid
increasing complexity by making it a builtin), but it is saved to a path
that does not match its filename (since its name is somewhat of a
special character that might cause problems during installation).
Directly probing the `colon` function for autoload causes `:` to be
correctly loaded, so doing just that after function paths are loaded
upon startup.
This is a hack since the CPP code shouldn't really be aware of
individual functions, perhaps there is a better way of doing this.
The value is not electrified or tied and is read-only. It isn't cached
in the get_hostname_identifier() function as the ENV_GLOBAL $hostname
will cache it for its duration.
This is part of an effort to improve fish's Unicode handling. This commit
attempts to grapple with the fact that, certain characters (principally
emoji) were considered to have a wcwidth of 1 in Unicode 8, but a width of
2 in Unicode 9.
The system wcwidth() here cannot be trusted; terminal emulators do not
respect it. iTerm2 even allows this to be set in preferences.
This commit introduces a new function is_width_2_in_Uni9_but_1_in_Uni8() to
detect characters of version-ambiguous width. For these characters, it
returns a width guessed based on the value of TERM_PROGRAM and
TERM_VERSION, defaulting to 1. This value can be overridden by setting the
value of a new variable fish_emoji_width (presumably either to 1 or 2).
Fixes#4539, #2652.
Prior to this fix, autoloads like function and completion autoloads
would check their path variable (like fish_function_path) on every
autoload request. Switch to invalidating it in response to the variable
changing.
This improves time on a microbenchmark:
for i in (seq 50000)
setenv test_env val$i
end
from ~11 seconds to ~6.5 seconds.
Add a fish-specific wrapper around std::mutex that records whether it is
locked in a bool. This is to make ASSERT_IS_LOCKED() simpler (it can just
check the boolean instead of relying on try_lock) which will make Coverity
Scan happier.
Some details: Coverity Scan was complaining about an apparent double-unlock
because it's unaware of the semantics of try_lock(). Specifically fish
asserts that a lock is locked by asserting that try_lock fails; if it
succeeds fish prints an error and then unlocks the lock (so as not to leave
it locked). This unlock is of course correct, but it confused Coverity Scan.
Use wcstring/string instead of a character array. The variable
`term_env` was not being freed before the function exited.
Fixes defect 7520324 in coverity scan.
There were several issues with the way that the include tests for curses.h
were being done that were ultimately causing fish to use the headers from
ncurses but link against curses on platforms that provide an actual
libcurses.so that isn't just a symlink to libncurses.so
In particular, the old code was first testing for curses's cureses.h and then
falling back to libncurses's implementation of the same - but that logic was
reversed when it came to including term.h, in which case it was testing for
the ncurses term.h and falling back to the curses.h header. Long story short,
while cmake will link against libcurses.so if both libcurses.so and
libncurses.so are present (unless CURSES_NEED_NCURSES evaluates to TRUE, but
that makes ncurses a hard requirement), but we were brining in some of the
defines from the ncurses headers, causing SIGSEGV panics when fish ultimately
tried to access variables that weren't exported or were mapped to undefined
areas of memory in the other library.
Additionally it is an error to include termios.h prior to including the plain
Jane curses.h (not ncurses/curses.h), causing errors about unimplemented types
SGTTY/chtype. So far as I can tell, both curses.h and ncurses/curses.h pull in
termios.h themselves so it shouldn't even be necessary to manually include it,
but I have just moved its #include below that of curses.h
* Hoist `for` loop control var to enclosing scope
It should be possible to reference the last value assigned to a `for`
loop control var when the loop terminates. This makes it easier to detect
if we broke out of the loop among other things. This change makes fish
`for` loops behave like most other shells.
Fixes#1935
* Remove redundant line
This eliminates the "missing" notion of env_var_t. Instead
env_get returns a maybe_t<env_var_t>, which forces callers to
handle the possibility that the variable is missing.
This commit backs out certain optimizations around setting environment
variables, and replaces them with move semantics. env_set accepts a
list, by value, permitting callers to use std::move to transfer
ownership.
Commit f872f25f introduced a freed memory access regression on line 460
of env.cpp, where an environment variable was converted to a temporary
string, the .c_str() address of which was stored while the string
temporary was destroyed.
This commit keeps a reference to the original string lying around so
that the c_str() pointer does not point to freed memory.
cherry-picked from krader1961/fish-shell commit b69df4fe72
Fixes#4353 (regression in indexing of history contents) and introduces
new unit tests to catch bad $history indexing in the future.
Make setting fish vars more efficient by avoiding creating a
wcstring_list_t for the case where we're setting one value. For the case
where we're passing a list of values swap it with the list in the var
rather than copying it. This makes the benchmark in #4200 approximately
6% faster.
Since we are including XXHash32/64 anyway for the wchar_t* hashing,
we might as well use it.
Use arch-specific hash size and xxhash for all wcstring hashing
Instead of using XXHash64 for all platforms, use the 32-bit version
when running on 32-bit platforms where XXHash64 is significantly slower
than XXHash32 (and the additional precision will not be used).
Additionally, manually specify wcstring_hash as hashing method for
non-const wcstring unordered_set/map instances (the const varieties
don't have an in-library hash and so already use our xxhash-based
specialization when calling std::hash<const wcstring>).

Convert const_string_set_t to std::unordered_set
As it is a readonly-list of raw character pointer strings (not
wcstring), this necessitated the addition of a hashing function since
the C++ standard library does not come with a char pointer hash
function.
To that end, a zlib-licensed [0] port of the excellent, lightweight
XXHash family of 32- and 64-bit hashing algorithms in the form of a C++
header-only include library has been included. XXHash32/64 is pretty
much universally the fastest hashing library for general purpose
applications, and has been thoroughly vetted and is used in countless
open source projects. The single-header version of this library makes it
a lot simpler to include in the fish project, and the license
compatibility with fish' GPLv2 and the zero-lib nature should make it an
easy decision.
std::unordered_set brings a massive speedup as compared to the default
std::set, and the further use of the fast XXHash library to provide the
string hashing should make all forms of string lookups in fish
significantly faster (to a user-noticeable extent).
