This was achieved by deleting Cargo.lock
and letting a recent Cargo nightly re-create
it. Support for the format was already
introduced in Rust 1.38, but currently,
stable releases of Cargo only retain it
if encountered but don't generate such
files by default.
The new format is smaller, better suited to
prevent merge conflicts and generates smaller
diffs at dependency updates, leading to
smaller git history.

This commit extracts Tag, Span, Text, as well as source-related debug
facilities into a new crate called nu_source.
This change is much bigger than one might have expected because the
previous code relied heavily on implementing inherent methods on
`Tagged<T>` and `Spanned<T>`, which is no longer possible.
As a result, this change creates more concrete types instead of using
`Tagged<T>`. One notable example: Tagged<Value> became Value, and Value
became UntaggedValue.
This change clarifies the intent of the code in many places, but it does
make it a big change.
The original purpose of this PR was to modernize the external parser to
use the new Shape system.
This commit does include some of that change, but a more important
aspect of this change is an improvement to the expansion trace.
Previous commit 6a7c00ea adding trace infrastructure to the syntax coloring
feature. This commit adds tracing to the expander.
The bulk of that work, in addition to the tree builder logic, was an
overhaul of the formatter traits to make them more general purpose, and
more structured.
Some highlights:
- `ToDebug` was split into two traits (`ToDebug` and `DebugFormat`)
because implementations needed to become objects, but a convenience
method on `ToDebug` didn't qualify
- `DebugFormat`'s `fmt_debug` method now takes a `DebugFormatter` rather
than a standard formatter, and `DebugFormatter` has a new (but still
limited) facility for structured formatting.
- Implementations of `ExpandSyntax` need to produce output that
implements `DebugFormat`.
Unlike the highlighter changes, these changes are fairly focused in the
trace output, so these changes aren't behind a flag.
* Moves off of draining between filters. Instead, the sink will pull on the stream, and will drain element-wise. This moves the whole stream to being lazy.
* Adds ctrl-c support and connects it into some of the key points where we pull on the stream. If a ctrl-c is detect, we immediately halt pulling on the stream and return to the prompt.
* Moves away from having a SourceMap where anchor locations are stored. Now AnchorLocation is kept directly in the Tag.
* To make this possible, split tag and span. Span is largely used in the parser and is copyable. Tag is now no longer copyable.
This commit adds the ability to work on features behind a feature flag
that won't be included in normal builds of nu.
These features are not exposed as Cargo features, as they reflect
incomplete features that are not yet stable.
To create a feature, add it to `features.toml`:
```toml
[hintsv1]
description = "Adding hints based on error states in the highlighter"
enabled = false
```
Each feature in `features.toml` becomes a feature flag accessible to `cfg`:
```rs
println!("hintsv1 is enabled");
```
By default, features are enabled based on the value of the `enabled` field.
You can also enable a feature from the command line via the
`NUSHELL_ENABLE_FLAGS` environment variable:
```sh
$ NUSHELL_ENABLE_FLAGS=hintsv1 cargo run
```
You can enable all flags via `NUSHELL_ENABLE_ALL_FLAGS`.
This commit also updates the CI setup to run the build with all flags off and
with all flags on. It also extracts the linting test into its own
parallelizable test, which means it doesn't need to run together with every
other test anymore.
When working on a feature, you should also add tests behind the same flag. A
commit is mergable if all tests pass with and without the flag, allowing
incomplete commits to land on master as long as the incomplete code builds and
passes tests.
The main thrust of this (very large) commit is an overhaul of the
expansion system.
The parsing pipeline is:
- Lightly parse the source file for atoms, basic delimiters and pipeline
structure into a token tree
- Expand the token tree into a HIR (high-level intermediate
representation) based upon the baseline syntax rules for expressions
and the syntactic shape of commands.
Somewhat non-traditionally, nu doesn't have an AST at all. It goes
directly from the token tree, which doesn't represent many important
distinctions (like the difference between `hello` and `5KB`) directly
into a high-level representation that doesn't have a direct
correspondence to the source code.
At a high level, nu commands work like macros, in the sense that the
syntactic shape of the invocation of a command depends on the
definition of a command.
However, commands do not have the ability to perform unrestricted
expansions of the token tree. Instead, they describe their arguments in
terms of syntactic shapes, and the expander expands the token tree into
HIR based upon that definition.
For example, the `where` command says that it takes a block as its first
required argument, and the description of the block syntactic shape
expands the syntax `cpu > 10` into HIR that represents
`{ $it.cpu > 10 }`.
This commit overhauls that system so that the syntactic shapes are
described in terms of a few new traits (`ExpandSyntax` and
`ExpandExpression` are the primary ones) that are more composable than
the previous system.
The first big win of this new system is the addition of the `ColumnPath`
shape, which looks like `cpu."max ghz"` or `package.version`.
Previously, while a variable path could look like `$it.cpu."max ghz"`,
the tail of a variable path could not be easily reused in other
contexts. Now, that tail is its own syntactic shape, and it can be used
as part of a command's signature.
This cleans up commands like `inc`, `add` and `edit` as well as
shorthand blocks, which can now look like `| where cpu."max ghz" > 10`
Kind of touches on #356 by integrating the Starship prompt directly into the shell.
Not finished yet and has surfaced a potential bug in rustyline anyway. It depends on https://github.com/starship/starship/pull/509 being merged so the Starship prompt can be used as a library.
I could have tackled #356 completely and implemented a full custom prompt feature but I felt this was a simpler approach given that Starship is both written in Rust so shelling out isn't necessary and it already has a bunch of useful features built in.
However, I would understand if it would be preferable to just scrap integrating Starship directly and instead implement a custom prompt system which would facilitate simply shelling out to Starship.
Rids us of crossbeam v0.5 and lots of other crates.
For most users this only effects Cargo.lock though,
as rust-argon2 is only compiled when targeting
redox.
This commit migrates Value's numeric types to BigInt and BigDecimal. The
basic idea is that overflow errors aren't great in a shell environment,
and not really necessary.
The main immediate consequence is that new errors can occur when
serializing Nu values to other formats. You can see this in changes to
the various serialization formats (JSON, TOML, etc.). There's a new
`CoerceInto` trait that uses the `ToPrimitive` trait from `num_traits`
to attempt to coerce a `BigNum` or `BigDecimal` into a target type, and
produces a `RangeError` (kind of `ShellError`) if the coercion fails.
Another possible future consequence is that certain performance-critical
numeric operations might be too slow. If that happens, we can introduce
specialized numeric types to help improve the performance of those
situations, based on the real-world experience.
This commit is more substantial than it looks: there was basically no
real support for decimals before, and that impacted values all the way
through.
I also made Size contain a decimal instead of an integer (`1.6kb` is a
reasonable thing to type), which impacted a bunch of code.
The biggest impact of this commit is that it creates many more possible
ways for valid nu types to fail to serialize as toml, json, etc. which
typically can't support the full range of Decimal (or Bigint, which I
also think we should support). This commit makes to-toml fallible, and a
similar effort is necessary for the rest of the serializations.
We also need to figure out how to clearly communicate to users what has
happened, but failing to serialize to toml seems clearly superior to me
than weird errors in basic math operations.
