Commit e40eba358 (Treat text following quoted command substitution
as quoted) made parse_util_locate_cmdsubst_range() aware of quoted
command substitutions, by skipping surrounding text via quote_end().
However, it was not quite right. We fail to properly parse
two consecutive command substitutions in the same string,
because we don't maintain the quoting context across calls to
parse_util_locate_cmdsubst_range(). Let's track that bit in a
parameter. This allows us to get rid of the quote_end() hack.
Also apply this to the other place where we call
parse_util_locate_cmdsubst_range() in a loop (highlighting).
Fixes#8500
Commit ec3d3a481 (Support "$(cmd)" command substitution without line
splitting, 2021-07-02) started treating an input string like
"a$()b" as if it were "a"$()"b". Yet, we do not actually insert the
virtual quotes. Instead we just adapted the definition of when quotes
are closed - hence the changes to quote_end().
parse_util_locate_cmdsubst_range() is aware
of the changes to quote_end() but some of its
callers like parse_util_detect_errors_in_argument() and
highlighter_t::color_as_argument() are not. They split strings at
command substitution boundaries without handling the special quoting
rules. (Only the expansion logic did it right.)
Fix this by handling the special quoting rules inside
parse_util_locate_cmdsubst_range(). This is a bit hacky since it
makes it harder for callers to process some substrings in between
command substitutions, but that's okay because current callers only
care about what's inside the command substitutions.
Fixes#8394
Like the $status commit, this would add the offset to already existing
errors, so
```fish
(foo)
(bar)
something
```
would see the "(foo)" error, store the correct error location, then
see the "(bar)" error, and *add the offset of (bar)* to the "(foo)"
error location.
Solve this by making a new error list and appending it to the existing
ones.
There's a few other ways to solve this, including:
- Stopping after the first error (we only display the first anyway, I
think?)
- Making it so the source location has an "absolute" flag that shows
the offset has already been added (but do we ever need to add two offsets?)
I went with the simpler fix.
This would break the location of any prior errors without doing
anything of value.
E.g.
```fish
echo foo | exec grep # this exec is not allowed!
$status
somethingelse # The error might be found here!
```
Would apply the offset of `$status` to the offset of `exec`, locating
the error for `exec` somewhere after $status!
Fixes some regressions from 35ca42413 ("Simplify some parse_util functions").
The tmux tests are not beautiful but I find them easy to write.
Probably a pexpect test would also be enough here?
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.
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 $status, so it can be
used to quickly set that, in case you want to test something.
This adds a hack to the parser. Given a command
echo "x$()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 preparation for concurrent execution, introduce a
`get_performer_for_builtin` function. This function itself returns a
function, which when called will run the builtin. The idea is that the
function may be called on a background thread (but not in this commit).
Several functions including wgetopt and execve operate on null-terminated
arrays of nul-terminated pointers: a list of pointers to C strings where
the last pointer is null. Prior to this change, each process_t stored its
argv in such an array. This had two problems:
1. It was awkward to work with this type, instead of using std::vector,
etc.
2. The process's arguments would be rearranged by builtins which is
surprising
Our null terminated arrays were built around a fancy type that would copy
input strings and also generate an array of pointers to them, in one big
allocation.
Switch to a new model where we construct an array of pointers over
existing strings. So you can supply a `vector<string>` and now
`null_terminated_array_t` will just make a list of pointers to them. Now
processes can just store their argv in a familiar wcstring_list_t.
Similar to what fish_indent does. After typing "echo \" and hitting return,
the cursor will be indented.
A possible annoyance is that when you have multiple indented lines
echo 1 \
2 \
3 \
4 \
If you remove lines in the middle with Control-k, the lines below
the deleted one will start jumping around, as they are disconnected
from and reconnected to "echo".
This needs to be rewritten, I'm pretty sure we have like 6 of these
kinds of ad-hoc "is this quoted" things lying around.
But for now, at least don't just check if the *previous* character was
a backslash.
Fixes#7685.
Before running a command, or before importing a command from bash history,
we perform error checking. As part of error checking we expand commands
including variables and globs. If the glob is very large, like `/**`, then
we could hang expanding it.
One fix would be to limit the amount of expansion from the glob, but
instead let's just not expand command globs when performing error checking.
Fixes#7407
Found with gcc's -Wmissing-declarations which gives warnings like
../src/tinyexpr.cpp:61:5: warning: no previous declaration for ‘int get_arity(int)’ [-Wmissing-declarations]
61 | int get_arity(const int type) {
The same warnings show up for builtin functions like builtin_bg because they
currently don't include their own headers. I left that.
Also reformat the touched files.
The line offset of a trailing newline on the commandline was computed incorrectly.
As a result, up-arrow did not work for a commandline like the one inserted by:
commandline -i echo '' ''
Note this and the previous commit in the changelog.
This indents continuations after pipes and conjunctions if they contain
a newline.
Example:
cmd1 &&
cmd2
But it avoids the "double indent" if it indented unconditionally:
cmd1 | begin
cmd2
end
More work towards improving #7252
This switches parse_util_compute_indents from parsing with parse_tree to
the new ast.
It also reworks the parse_util_compute_indents tests, because
parse_util_compute_indents will be the backing for fish_indent.
