If the padding is not divisible by the char's width without remainder,
we pad the remainder with spaces, so the total width of the output is correct.
Also add completions, changelog entry, adjust documentation, add examples
with emoji and some tests. Apply some minor style nitpicks and avoid extra
allocations of the input strings.
Prior to this change, tab completing with a variable assignment like
`VAR=val cmd<tab>` would parse out and apply VAR=val, then recursively
invoke completions. This caused some awkwardness around the wrap chain -
if a wrapped command had a variable completion we risked infinite
recursion. A secondary problem is that we would run any command
substitutions inside variable assignment, which the user does not expect
to run until pressing enter.
With this change, we explicitly track variable assignments encountered
during tab completion, including both those explicitly given on the
command line and those found during wrap chain walk. We then apply them
while suppressing command substitutions.
In preparation for applying variable assignments (VAR=VAL cmd), separate
them out from the command when performing completions. This includes both
those that the user typed, and any that come about through
completion --wraps.
The "wrap chain" refers to a sequence of commands which wrap other
commands, for completion purposes. One possibility is that a wrap chain
will produce a combinatorial explosion or even an infinite loop, so there
needs to be logic to prevent that. Part of that logic is encapsulated in a
visited set (wrap_chain_visited_set_t) to prevent exploring the same item
twice.
Prior to this change, we stored pairs (command, wrapped_command). But we
only really need to store the wrapped command. Switch to that.
One consequence is that if a command wraps another command in more than
one way, we won't explore both ways. This seems unlikely in practice.
Detect recursive calls to builtin complete and the internal completion in
the same place.
In 0a0149cc2 (Prevent infinite recursion when completion wraps variable assignment)
we don't print an error when completing certain aliases like:
alias vim "A=B vim"
But we also gave no completions.
We could make this case work, but I think that trying to salvage situations
like this one is way too complex. Instead, let the user know by printing an
error. Not sure if the style of the error fits.
We could add some heuristic to alias to not add --wraps in some cyclic cases.
This reads any additional positional arguments given to `fish -c` into
$argv.
We don't handle the first argument specially (as `$0`) as that's confusing and
doesn't seem very useful.
Fixes#2314.
This makes history searches case-insensitive, unless the search string
contains an uppercase character.
This is what vim calls "smartcase".
Fixes#7273.
Closes#7344
Apply a targeted fix to the place where complete() is called to handle nested
variable assignments. Sadly, reporting an error is probably not okay here,
because people might legitimately use aliases like:
alias vim "A=B command vim"
This is all a bit ugly, and I hope to find a cleaner solution. Supporting
completions on commandlines like `x=$PWD cd $x/ ` is a nice feature but it
comes with some complexity.
"function --argument" is not a thing, it's "--argument-names". This only
accidentally works because our getopt is awful and allows abbreviated
long options.
Similarly, one argparse test used "--d" instead of "-d" or "--def".
Since builtins don't actually have the streams connected, but instead
read input via the io_streams_t objects, this would just always say
what *fish's* fds were.
Instead, pass along some of the stream data to check those
specifically - nobody cares that `test`s fd 0 *technically* is stdin.
What they want to know is that, if they used another program in that
place, it would connect to the TTY.
This is pretty hacky - I abused static variables for this, but
since it's two bools and an int it's probably okay.
See #1228.
Fixes#4766.
This re-enables the test that eval retains pgroups, from #6806.
The old version was racey and failed a lot. In the new version, we use
temp files to resolve the race.
The case for symlinked directories being duplicated a lot isn't there,
but there *is* a usecase for adding the symlink rather than the
target, and that's homebrew.
E.g. homebrew installs ruby into /usr/local/Cellar/ruby/2.7.1_2/bin,
and links to it from /usr/local/opt/ruby/bin. If we add the target, we
would miss updates.
Having path entries that point to the same location isn't a big
problem - it's a path lookup, so it takes a teensy bit longer. The
canonicalization is mainly so paths don't end up duplicated via weird
spelling and so relative paths can be used.
Taken from GNU realpath, this one makes realpath not resolve symlinks.
It still makes paths absolute and handles duplicate and trailing
slashes.
(useful in fish_add_path)
With a commandline like
```
a b c d
```
and the cursor at the beginning, this would eat "a b", which isn't a
sensible bigword.
Bigword should be "a word, with optional leading whitespace".
This was caused by an overly zealous state-machine that always ate one
char and only *then* started eating leading whitespace.
Instead eat *a character*, and if it was whitespace go on eating
whitespace, and if it was a printable go straight to only eating
printables.
Fixes#7325.
This can easily lead to an infinite loop, if a variable handler
triggers a repaint and the variable is set in the prompt, e.g. some of
the git variables.
A simple way to reproduce:
function fish_mode_prompt
commandline -f repaint
end
Repainting executes the mode prompt, which triggers a repaint, which
triggers the mode prompt, ....
So we just set a flag and check it.
Fixes#7324.
Currently, completions have to be specified like
```fish
complete -c foo -l opt
```
while
```fish
complete foo -l opt
```
just complains about there being too many arguments.
That's kinda useless, so we just assume if there is one left-over
argument that it's meant to be the command.
Theoretically we could also use *all* the arguments as commands to
complete, but that seems unlikely to be what the user wants.
(I don't think multi-command completions really happen)
Currently only `complete` will list completions, and it will list all
of them.
That's a bit ridiculous, especially since `complete -c foo` just does nothing.
So just make `complete -c foo` list all the completions for `foo`.
Previously, when a command wasn't found, fish would emit the
"fish_command_not_found" *event*.
This was annoying as it was hard to override (the code ended up
checking for a function called `__fish_command_not_found_handler`
anyway!), the setup was ugly,
and it's useless - there is no use case for multiple command-not-found handlers.
Instead, let's just call a function `fish_command_not_found` if it
exists, or print the default message otherwise.
The event is completely removed, but because a missing event is not an error
(MEISNAE in C++-speak) this isn't an issue.
Note that, for backwards-compatibility, we still keep the default
handler function around even tho the new one is hard-coded in C++.
Also, if we detect a previous handler, the new handler just calls it.
This way, the backwards-compatible way to install a custom handler is:
```fish
function __fish_command_not_found_handler --on-event fish_command_not_found
# do a little dance, make a little love, get down tonight
end
```
and the new hotness is
```fish
function fish_command_not_found
# do the thing
end
```
Fixes#7293.
Now command, jobs, type, abbr, builtin, functions and set take `-q` to
query for existence, but the long option is inconsistent.
The first three use `--quiet`, the latter use `--query`. Add `--query`
to the first three, but keep `--quiet` around.
Fixes#7276.
Just as `math "bitand(5,3)"` and `math "bitor(6,2)"`.
These cast to long long before doing their thing,
so they truncate to an integer, producing weird results with floats.
That's to be expected because float representation is *very*
different, and performing bitwise operations on floats feels quite useless.
Fixes#7281.
Prior to this change, if we saw more than one repaint readline command in
a row, we would try to ignore the second one. However this was never the
right thing to do since sometimes we really do need to repaint twice in a
row (e.g. the user hits Ctrl+L twice). Previously we were saved by the
buginess of this mechanism but with the repainting refactoring we see
missing redraws.
Remove the coalescing logic and add a test. Fixes#7280.
Because TERM was set to something other than 'dumb', we were subject to
syntax highlighting and other interactive features that would affect the
output. In practice we were getting lucky timing-wise, but with upcoming
interactive changes syntax highlighting started to fail this test.
It could be nice to use a heuristic for this in future, but for now let's
stick to the old behavior so we can keep formatting scripts without occasional
bad formatting changes.
A heuristic could also be used to break lines after |, && or || but I don't
think there is much need for that at the moment.
Closes#7252
This concerns code like the following:
while true ; sleep 100; end
Here 'while' is a "simple block execution" and does not create a new job,
or get a pgid. Each 'sleep' however is an external command execution, and
is treated as a distinct job. (bash is the same way). So `while` and
`sleep` are always in different job groups.
The problem comes about if 'sleep' is cancelled through SIGINT or SIGQUIT.
Prior to 2a4c545b21, if *any* process got a SIGINT or SIGQUIT, then fish
would mark a global "stop executing" variable. This obviously prevents
background execution of fish functions.
In 2a4c545b21, this was changed so only the job's group gets marked as
cancelled. However in the case of one job group spawning another, we
weren't propagating the signal.
This adds a signal to parse_execution_context which the parser checks after
execution. It's not ideal since now we have three different places where
signals can be recorded. However it fixes this regression which is too
important to leave unfixed for long.
Fixes#7259
