# Description
This is an attempt to isolate the unit tests from whatever might be in
the user's config. If the
user's config is broken in some way or incompatible with this version
(for example, especially if
there are plugins that aren't built for this version), tests can
spuriously fail.
This makes tests more reliably pass the same way they would on CI even
if the user has config, and
should also make them run faster.
I think this is _good enough_, but I still think we should have a
specific config dir env variable for nushell specifically (rather than
having to use `XDG_CONFIG_HOME`, which would mess with other things) and
then we can just have `nu-test-support` set that to a temporary dir
containing the shipped default config files.

# Description
I have `nu` set as my shell in my editor, which allows me to easily pipe
selections of text to things like `str pascal-case` or even more complex
string operation pipelines, which I find super handy. However, the only
annoying thing is that I pretty much always have to add `| print -n` at
the end, because `nu` adds a newline when it prints the resulting value.
This adds a `--no-newline` option to stop that from happening, and then
you don't need to pipe to `print -n` anymore, you can just have your
shell command for your editor contain that flag.
# User-Facing Changes

Fixes a problem introduced in
https://github.com/nushell/nushell/pull/12420 where one of the config
path tests (`test_xdg_config_symlink`) fails if, on MacOS, a developer
already has config files in the default location for that platform.
This happened because the test is making sure the
`xdg_config_home_invalid` error isn't reported, but to do that, it
asserts that stderr is empty, which it is not if in the case mentioned
above, because Nushell warns that the default location
(`~/.config`/`~/Library/Application Support`) is not empty but
`XDG_CONFIG_HOME` is empty.
If someone with a Mac could test this, that'd be great.

Fixes#12416. Turns out that in src/main.rs, `XDG_CONFIG_HOME` wasn't
being canonicalized before being compared to `nu_path::config_dir()` to
check if `XDG_CONFIG_HOME` was set to an invalid value. This has been
rectified now.

Thanks to a pointer from Devyn, I've now added tests to make sure the
`xdg_config_home_invalid` error doesn't pop up when `XDG_CONFIG_HOME` is
a symlink (and does when it's actually invalid).
Turns out two of the tests in `test_config_path` tried modifying
`XDG_CONFIG_HOME` using `playground.with_env` but used `nu!`, so the
subprocess didn't actually use the modified value of `XDG_CONFIG_HOME`.
When I added them, I was unaware that the `.with_env` didn't actually
modify the environment. This has now been rectified.

# Description
Now we only use `nix 0.28.0`
Achieved by
- updating `ctrlc` to `3.4.4`
- updating `wl-clipboard-rs` to `0.8.1`
- update our own dependency on `nix` from `0.27` to `0.28`
- required fixing uses of `nix::unistd::{tcgetpgrp,tcsetpgrp}`
- now requires an I/O safe file descriptor
- fake one pointing to `libc::STDIN_FILENO` (we were only accessing
`0` previously, dito for fish)
# User-Facing Changes
Better compile times and less to download as source dependencies
# Description
When implementing a `Command`, one must also import all the types
present in the function signatures for `Command`. This makes it so that
we often import the same set of types in each command implementation
file. E.g., something like this:
```rust
use nu_protocol::ast::Call;
use nu_protocol::engine::{Command, EngineState, Stack};
use nu_protocol::{
record, Category, Example, IntoInterruptiblePipelineData, IntoPipelineData, PipelineData,
ShellError, Signature, Span, Type, Value,
};
```
This PR adds the `nu_engine::command_prelude` module which contains the
necessary and commonly used types to implement a `Command`:
```rust
// command_prelude.rs
pub use crate::CallExt;
pub use nu_protocol::{
ast::{Call, CellPath},
engine::{Command, EngineState, Stack},
record, Category, Example, IntoInterruptiblePipelineData, IntoPipelineData, IntoSpanned,
PipelineData, Record, ShellError, Signature, Span, Spanned, SyntaxShape, Type, Value,
};
```
This should reduce the boilerplate needed to implement a command and
also gives us a place to track the breadth of the `Command` API. I tried
to be conservative with what went into the prelude modules, since it
might be hard/annoying to remove items from the prelude in the future.
Let me know if something should be included or excluded.

# Description
Get rid of two parallel `Vec`s in `StateDelta` and `EngineState`, that
also duplicated span information. Use a struct with documenting fields.
Also use `Arc<str>` and `Arc<[u8]>` for the allocations as they are
never modified and cloned often (see #12229 for the first improvement).
This also makes the representation more compact as no capacity is
necessary.
# User-Facing Changes
API breakage on `EngineState`/`StateWorkingSet`/`StateDelta` that should
not really affect plugin authors.
# Description
This makes many of the larger objects in `EngineState` into `Arc`, and
uses `Arc::make_mut` to do clone-on-write if the reference is not
unique. This is generally very cheap, giving us the best of both worlds
- allowing us to mutate without cloning if we have an exclusive
reference, and cloning if we don't.
This started as more of a curiosity for me after remembering that
`Arc::make_mut` exists and can make using `Arc` for mostly immutable
data that sometimes needs to be changed very convenient, and also after
hearing someone complain about memory usage on Discord - this is a
somewhat significant win for that.
The exact objects that were wrapped in `Arc`:
- `files`, `file_contents` - the strings and byte buffers
- `decls` - the whole `Vec`, but mostly to avoid lots of individual
`malloc()` calls on Clone rather than for memory usage
- `blocks` - the blocks themselves, rather than the outer Vec
- `modules` - the modules themselves, rather than the outer Vec
- `env_vars`, `previous_env_vars` - the entire maps
- `config`
The changes required were relatively minimal, but this is a breaking API
change. In particular, blocks are added as Arcs, to allow the parser
cache functionality to work.
With my normal nu config, running on Linux, this saves me about 15 MiB
of process memory usage when running interactively (65 MiB → 50 MiB).
This also makes quick command executions cheaper, particularly since
every REPL loop now involves a clone of the engine state so that we can
recover from a panic. It also reduces memory usage where engine state
needs to be cloned and sent to another thread or kept within an
iterator.
# User-Facing Changes
Shouldn't be any, since it's all internal stuff, but it does change some
public interfaces so it's a breaking change
# Description
The PR overhauls how IO redirection is handled, allowing more explicit
and fine-grain control over `stdout` and `stderr` output as well as more
efficient IO and piping.
To summarize the changes in this PR:
- Added a new `IoStream` type to indicate the intended destination for a
pipeline element's `stdout` and `stderr`.
- The `stdout` and `stderr` `IoStream`s are stored in the `Stack` and to
avoid adding 6 additional arguments to every eval function and
`Command::run`. The `stdout` and `stderr` streams can be temporarily
overwritten through functions on `Stack` and these functions will return
a guard that restores the original `stdout` and `stderr` when dropped.
- In the AST, redirections are now directly part of a `PipelineElement`
as a `Option<Redirection>` field instead of having multiple different
`PipelineElement` enum variants for each kind of redirection. This
required changes to the parser, mainly in `lite_parser.rs`.
- `Command`s can also set a `IoStream` override/redirection which will
apply to the previous command in the pipeline. This is used, for
example, in `ignore` to allow the previous external command to have its
stdout redirected to `Stdio::null()` at spawn time. In contrast, the
current implementation has to create an os pipe and manually consume the
output on nushell's side. File and pipe redirections (`o>`, `e>`, `e>|`,
etc.) have precedence over overrides from commands.
This PR improves piping and IO speed, partially addressing #10763. Using
the `throughput` command from that issue, this PR gives the following
speedup on my setup for the commands below:
| Command | Before (MB/s) | After (MB/s) | Bash (MB/s) |
| --------------------------- | -------------:| ------------:|
-----------:|
| `throughput o> /dev/null` | 1169 | 52938 | 54305 |
| `throughput \| ignore` | 840 | 55438 | N/A |
| `throughput \| null` | Error | 53617 | N/A |
| `throughput \| rg 'x'` | 1165 | 3049 | 3736 |
| `(throughput) \| rg 'x'` | 810 | 3085 | 3815 |
(Numbers above are the median samples for throughput)
This PR also paves the way to refactor our `ExternalStream` handling in
the various commands. For example, this PR already fixes the following
code:
```nushell
^sh -c 'echo -n "hello "; sleep 0; echo "world"' | find "hello world"
```
This returns an empty list on 0.90.1 and returns a highlighted "hello
world" on this PR.
Since the `stdout` and `stderr` `IoStream`s are available to commands
when they are run, then this unlocks the potential for more convenient
behavior. E.g., the `find` command can disable its ansi highlighting if
it detects that the output `IoStream` is not the terminal. Knowing the
output streams will also allow background job output to be redirected
more easily and efficiently.
# User-Facing Changes
- External commands returned from closures will be collected (in most
cases):
```nushell
1..2 | each {|_| nu -c "print a" }
```
This gives `["a", "a"]` on this PR, whereas this used to print "a\na\n"
and then return an empty list.
```nushell
1..2 | each {|_| nu -c "print -e a" }
```
This gives `["", ""]` and prints "a\na\n" to stderr, whereas this used
to return an empty list and print "a\na\n" to stderr.
- Trailing new lines are always trimmed for external commands when
piping into internal commands or collecting it as a value. (Failure to
decode the output as utf-8 will keep the trailing newline for the last
binary value.) In the current nushell version, the following three code
snippets differ only in parenthesis placement, but they all also have
different outputs:
1. `1..2 | each { ^echo a }`
```
a
a
╭────────────╮
│ empty list │
╰────────────╯
```
2. `1..2 | each { (^echo a) }`
```
╭───┬───╮
│ 0 │ a │
│ 1 │ a │
╰───┴───╯
```
3. `1..2 | (each { ^echo a })`
```
╭───┬───╮
│ 0 │ a │
│ │ │
│ 1 │ a │
│ │ │
╰───┴───╯
```
But in this PR, the above snippets will all have the same output:
```
╭───┬───╮
│ 0 │ a │
│ 1 │ a │
╰───┴───╯
```
- All existing flags on `run-external` are now deprecated.
- File redirections now apply to all commands inside a code block:
```nushell
(nu -c "print -e a"; nu -c "print -e b") e> test.out
```
This gives "a\nb\n" in `test.out` and prints nothing. The same result
would happen when printing to stdout and using a `o>` file redirection.
- External command output will (almost) never be ignored, and ignoring
output must be explicit now:
```nushell
(^echo a; ^echo b)
```
This prints "a\nb\n", whereas this used to print only "b\n". This only
applies to external commands; values and internal commands not in return
position will not print anything (e.g., `(echo a; echo b)` still only
prints "b").
- `complete` now always captures stderr (`do` is not necessary).

Because `std::fs::canonicalize` requires the path to exist, this PR
makes it so that when canonicalizing any config file, the
`$nu.default-config-dir/nushell` part is canonicalized first, then
`$nu.default-config-dir/nushell/foo.nu` is canonicalized.
This should also fix the issue @devyn pointed out
[here](https://github.com/nushell/nushell/pull/12118#issuecomment-1989546708)
where a couple of the tests failed if one's `~/.config/nushell` folder
was actually a symlink to a different folder. The tests previously
didn't canonicalize the expected paths.
I was going to make a PR that caches the config directory on startup (as
suggested by fdncred and Ian in Discord), but I can make that part of
this PR if we want to avoid creating unnecessary PRs. I think it
probably makes more sense to separate them though.

As described in #12103, this PR makes Nushell use `XDG_CONFIG_HOME` as
the config directory if it exists. Otherwise, it uses the old behavior,
which was to use `dirs_next::config_dir()`.
Edit: We discussed choosing between `XDG_CONFIG_HOME` and the default
config directory in Discord and decided against it, at least for now.
<s>@kubouch also suggested letting users choose between
`XDG_CONFIG_HOME` and the default config directory if config files
aren't found on startup and `XDG_CONFIG_HOME` is set to a value
different from the default config directory</s>
On Windows and MacOS, if the `XDG_CONFIG_HOME` variable is set but
`XDG_CONFIG_HOME` is either empty or doesn't exist *and* the old config
directory is non-empty, Nushell will issue a warning on startup saying
that it won't move files from the old config directory to the new one.
To do this, I had to add a `nu_path::config_dir_old()` function. I
assume that at some point, we will remove the warning message and the
function can be removed too. Alternatively, instead of having that
function there, `main.rs` could directly call `dirs_next::config_dir()`.
# User-Facing Changes
<!-- List of all changes that impact the user experience here. This
helps us keep track of breaking changes. -->
When `$env.XDG_CONFIG_HOME` is set to an absolute path, Nushell will use
`$"($env.XDG_CONFIG_HOME)/nushell"` as its config directory (previously,
this only worked on Linux).
To use `App Data\Roaming` (Windows) or `Library/Application Support`
(MacOS) instead (the old behavior), one can either leave
`XDG_CONFIG_HOME` unset or set it to an empty string.
If `XDG_CONFIG_HOME` is set, but to a non-absolute/invalid path, Nushell
will report an error on startup and use the default config directory
instead:

The documentation will have to be updated to note that Nushell uses
`XDG_CONFIG_HOME` now. As @fdncred pointed out, it's possible for people
to set `XDG_CONFIG_HOME` to, say, `~/.config/nushell` rather than
`~/.config`, so the documentation could warn about that mistake.
This is partially "feng-shui programming" of moving things to new
separate places.
The later commits include "`git blame` tollbooths" by moving out chunks
of code into new files, which requires an extra step to track things
with `git blame`. We can negiotiate if you want to keep particular
things in their original place.
If egregious I tried to add a bit of documentation. If I see something
that is unused/unnecessarily `pub` I will try to remove that.
- Move `nu_protocol::Exportable` to `nu-parser`
- Guess doccomment for `Exportable`
- Move `Unit` enum from `value` to `AST`
- Move engine state `Variable` def into its folder
- Move error-related files in `nu-protocol` subdir
- Move `pipeline_data` module into its own folder
- Move `stream.rs` over into the `pipeline_data` mod
- Move `PipelineMetadata` into its own file

# Description
The intended effect of the `extra` feature has been undermined by
introducing the full builds on our release pages and having more
activity on some of the extra commands.
To simplify the feature matrix let's get rid of it and focus our effort
on truly either refining a command to well-specified behavior or
discarding it entirely from the `nu` binary and moving it into plugins.
## Details
- Remove `--features extra` from CI
- Don't explicitly name `extra` in full build wf
- Remove feature extra from build-help scripts
- Update README in `nu-cmd-extra`
- Remove feature `extra`
- Fix previously dead `format pattern` tests
- Relax signature of `to html`
- Fix/ignore `html::test_no_color_flag`
- Remove dead features from `version`
- Refine `to html` type signature
# User-Facing Changes
The commands that were previously only available when building with
`--features extra` will now be available to everyone. This increases the
number of dependencies slightly but has a limited impact on the overall
binary size.
# Tests + Formatting
Some tests that were left in `nu-command` during cratification were dead
because the feature was not passed to `nu-command` and only to
`nu-cmd-lang` for feature-flag mention in `version`.
Those tests have now been either fixed or ignored in one case.
# After Submitting
There may be places in the documentation where we point to `--features
extra` that will now be moot (apart from the generated command help)
It turns out that my previous PR,
https://github.com/nushell/nushell/pull/11999, didn't properly
canonicalize `$nu.default-config-dir` in a scenario where
`XDG_CONFIG_HOME` (or the equivalent on each platform) was a symlink. To
remedy that, this PR makes `nu_path::config_dir()` return a
canonicalized path. This probably shouldn't break anything (except maybe
tests relying on the old behavior), since the canonical path will be
equivalent to non-canonical paths.
# User-Facing Changes
A user may get a path with symlinks resolved and `..`s replaced where
they previously didn't. I'm not sure where this would happen, though,
and anyway, the canonical path is probably the "correct" thing to
present to the user. We're using `omnipath` to make the path presentable
to the user on Windows, so there's no danger of someone getting an path
with `\\?` there.
# Tests + Formatting
The tests for config files have been updated to run the binary using the
`Director` so that it has access to the `XDG_CONFIG_HOME`/`HOME`
environment variables to be able to change the config directory.
# Description
This PR uses the new plugin protocol to intelligently keep plugin
processes running in the background for further plugin calls.
Running plugins can be seen by running the new `plugin list` command,
and stopped by running the new `plugin stop` command.
This is an enhancement for the performance of plugins, as starting new
plugin processes has overhead, especially for plugins in languages that
take a significant amount of time on startup. It also enables plugins
that have persistent state between commands, making the migration of
features like dataframes and `stor` to plugins possible.
Plugins are automatically stopped by the new plugin garbage collector,
configurable with `$env.config.plugin_gc`:
```nushell
$env.config.plugin_gc = {
# Configuration for plugin garbage collection
default: {
enabled: true # true to enable stopping of inactive plugins
stop_after: 10sec # how long to wait after a plugin is inactive to stop it
}
plugins: {
# alternate configuration for specific plugins, by name, for example:
#
# gstat: {
# enabled: false
# }
}
}
```
If garbage collection is enabled, plugins will be stopped after
`stop_after` passes after they were last active. Plugins are counted as
inactive if they have no running plugin calls. Reading the stream from
the response of a plugin call is still considered to be activity, but if
a plugin holds on to a stream but the call ends without an active
streaming response, it is not counted as active even if it is reading
it. Plugins can explicitly disable the GC as appropriate with
`engine.set_gc_disabled(true)`.
The `version` command now lists plugin names rather than plugin
commands. The list of plugin commands is accessible via `plugin list`.
Recommend doing this together with #12029, because it will likely force
plugin developers to do the right thing with mutability and lead to less
unexpected behavior when running plugins nested / in parallel.
# User-Facing Changes
- new command: `plugin list`
- new command: `plugin stop`
- changed command: `version` (now lists plugin names, rather than
commands)
- new config: `$env.config.plugin_gc`
- Plugins will keep running and be reused, at least for the configured
GC period
- Plugins that used mutable state in weird ways like `inc` did might
misbehave until fixed
- Plugins can disable GC if they need to
- Had to change plugin signature to accept `&EngineInterface` so that
the GC disable feature works. #12029 does this anyway, and I'm expecting
(resolvable) conflicts with that
# Tests + Formatting
- 🟢 `toolkit fmt`
- 🟢 `toolkit clippy`
- 🟢 `toolkit test`
- 🟢 `toolkit test stdlib`
Because there is some specific OS behavior required for plugins to not
respond to Ctrl-C directly, I've developed against and tested on both
Linux and Windows to ensure that works properly.
# After Submitting
I think this probably needs to be in the book somewhere
This is another attempt on #11288
This allows for a `Stack` to have a parent stack (behind an `Arc`). This
is being added to avoid constant stack copying in REPL code.
Concretely the following changes are included here:
- `Stack` can now have a `parent_stack`, pointing to another stack
- variable lookups can fallback to this parent stack (env vars and
everything else is still copied)
- REPL code has been reworked so that we use parenting rather than
cloning. A REPL-code-specific trait helps to ensure that we do not
accidentally trigger a full clone of the main stack
- A property test has been added to make sure that parenting "looks the
same" as cloning for consumers of `Stack` objects

This PR adds a new evaluator path with callbacks to a mutable trait
object implementing a Debugger trait. The trait object can do anything,
e.g., profiling, code coverage, step debugging. Currently,
entering/leaving a block and a pipeline element is marked with
callbacks, but more callbacks can be added as necessary. Not all
callbacks need to be used by all debuggers; unused ones are simply empty
calls. A simple profiler is implemented as a proof of concept.
The debugging support is implementing by making `eval_xxx()` functions
generic depending on whether we're debugging or not. This has zero
computational overhead, but makes the binary slightly larger (see
benchmarks below). `eval_xxx()` variants called from commands (like
`eval_block_with_early_return()` in `each`) are chosen with a dynamic
dispatch for two reasons: to not grow the binary size due to duplicating
the code of many commands, and for the fact that it isn't possible
because it would make Command trait objects object-unsafe.
In the future, I hope it will be possible to allow plugin callbacks such
that users would be able to implement their profiler plugins instead of
having to recompile Nushell.
[DAP](https://microsoft.github.io/debug-adapter-protocol/) would also be
interesting to explore.
Try `help debug profile`.
## Screenshots
Basic output:
![profiler_new](https://github.com/nushell/nushell/assets/25571562/418b9df0-b659-4dcb-b023-2d5fcef2c865)
To profile with more granularity, increase the profiler depth (you'll
see that repeated `is-windows` calls take a large chunk of total time,
making it a good candidate for optimizing):
![profiler_new_m3](https://github.com/nushell/nushell/assets/25571562/636d756d-5d56-460c-a372-14716f65f37f)
## Benchmarks
### Binary size
Binary size increase vs. main: **+40360 bytes**. _(Both built with
`--release --features=extra,dataframe`.)_
### Time
```nushell
# bench_debug.nu
use std bench
let test = {
1..100
| each {
ls | each {|row| $row.name | str length }
}
| flatten
| math avg
}
print 'debug:'
let res2 = bench { debug profile $test } --pretty
print $res2
```
```nushell
# bench_nodebug.nu
use std bench
let test = {
1..100
| each {
ls | each {|row| $row.name | str length }
}
| flatten
| math avg
}
print 'no debug:'
let res1 = bench { do $test } --pretty
print $res1
```
`cargo run --release -- bench_debug.nu` is consistently 1--2 ms slower
than `cargo run --release -- bench_nodebug.nu` due to the collection
overhead + gathering the report. This is expected. When gathering more
stuff, the overhead is obviously higher.
`cargo run --release -- bench_nodebug.nu` vs. `nu bench_nodebug.nu` I
didn't measure any difference. Both benchmarks report times between 97
and 103 ms randomly, without one being consistently higher than the
other. This suggests that at least in this particular case, when not
running any debugger, there is no runtime overhead.
## API changes
This PR adds a generic parameter to all `eval_xxx` functions that forces
you to specify whether you use the debugger. You can resolve it in two
ways:
* Use a provided helper that will figure it out for you. If you wanted
to use `eval_block(&engine_state, ...)`, call `let eval_block =
get_eval_block(&engine_state); eval_block(&engine_state, ...)`
* If you know you're in an evaluation path that doesn't need debugger
support, call `eval_block::<WithoutDebug>(&engine_state, ...)` (this is
the case of hooks, for example).
I tried to add more explanation in the docstring of `debugger_trait.rs`.
## TODO
- [x] Better profiler output to reduce spam of iterative commands like
`each`
- [x] Resolve `TODO: DEBUG` comments
- [x] Resolve unwraps
- [x] Add doc comments
- [x] Add usage and extra usage for `debug profile`, explaining all
columns

I've added a couple of tests to check that even if the config folder
and/or any of the config files within are symlinks, the `$nu.*`
variables are properly canonicalized. These tests unfortunately only run
on Linux and MacOS, because I couldn't figure out how to change the
config directory on Windows. Also, given that they involve creating
files, I'm not sure if they're excessive, so I could remove one or two
of them.

# Description
As title, currently on latest main, nushell confused user if it allows
implicit casting between glob and string:
```nushell
let x = "*.txt"
def glob-test [g: glob] { open $g }
glob-test $x
```
It always expand the glob although `$x` is defined as a string.
This pr implements a solution from @kubouch :
> We could make it really strict and disallow all autocasting between
globs and strings because that's what's causing the "magic" confusion.
Then, modify all builtins that accept globs to accept oneof(glob,
string) and the rules would be that globs always expand and strings
never expand
# User-Facing Changes
After this pr, user needs to use `into glob` to invoke `glob-test`, if
user pass a string variable:
```nushell
let x = "*.txt"
def glob-test [g: glob] { open $g }
glob-test ($x | into glob)
```
Or else nushell will return an error.
```

Currently, there's multiple places that look for a config directory, and
each of them has different error messages when it can't be found. This
PR makes a `ConfigDirNotFound` error to standardize the error message
for all of these cases.
# User-Facing Changes
<!-- List of all changes that impact the user experience here. This
helps us keep track of breaking changes. -->
Previously, the errors in `create_nu_constant()` would say which config
file Nushell was trying to get when it couldn't find the config
directory. Now it doesn't. However, I think that's fine, given that it
doesn't matter whether it couldn't find the config directory while
looking for `login.nu` or `env.nu`, it only matters that it couldn't
find it.
This is what the error looks like:

Related issue and PR, #11825#11864
This improves the signature of `commandline`.
## Before
`commandline` returns different types depending on the flags and an
aurgument.
| command | input | output | description |
|-----------------------------|---------|---------|----------------------------------------|
| `commandline` | nothing | string | get current cursor line |
| `commandline arg` | nothing | nothing | replace the cursor line with
`arg` |
| `commandline --append arg` | nothing | nothing | append `arg` to the
end of cursor line |
| `commandline --insert arg` | nothing | nothing | insert `arg` to the
position of cursor |
| `commandline --replace arg` | nothing | nothing | replace the cursor
line with `arg` |
| `commandline --cursor` | nothing | int | get current cursor position |
| `commandline --cursor pos` | nothing | nothing | set cursor position
to pos |
| `commandline --cursor-end` | nothing | nothing | set cursor position
to end |
`help commandline` shows that `commandline` accepts string as pipeline
input, but `commandline` ignores pipeline input.
```
Input/output types:
╭───┬─────────┬─────────╮
│ # │ input │ output │
├───┼─────────┼─────────┤
│ 0 │ nothing │ nothing │
│ 1 │ string │ string │
╰───┴─────────┴─────────╯
```
671bd08bcd/crates/nu-cli/src/commands/commandline.rs (L70)
This is misleading.
Due to the change #11864 , typecheck does not work well.
https://github.com/nushell/nushell/pull/11864#discussion_r1491814054
## After
Separate `commandline` into subcommands so that each subcommands returns
the same type for the same input type.
| command | input | output | description |
|----------------------------------|---------|---------|----------------------------------------|
| `commandline` | nothing | string | get current cursor line |
| `commandline edit arg` | nothing | nothing | replace the cursor line
with `arg` |
| `commandline edit --append arg` | nothing | nothing | append `arg` to
the end of cursor line |
| `commandline edit --insert arg` | nothing | nothing | insert `arg` to
the position of cursor |
| `commandline edit --replace arg` | nothing | nothing | replace the
cursor line with `arg` |
| `commandline get-cursor` | nothing | int | get current cursor position
|
| `commandline set-cursor pos` | nothing | nothing | set cursor position
to pos |
| `commandline set-cursor --end` | nothing | nothing | set cursor
position to end |

# Description
Following #11851, this PR adds one final conversion function for
`Value`. `Value::coerce_str` takes a `&Value` and converts it to a
`Cow<str>`, creating an owned `String` for types that needed converting.
Otherwise, it returns a borrowed `str` for `String` and `Binary`
`Value`s which avoids a clone/allocation. Where possible, `coerce_str`
and `coerce_into_string` should be used instead of `coerce_string`,
since `coerce_string` always allocates a new `String`.
# Description
This PR renames the conversion functions on `Value` to be more consistent.
It follows the Rust [API guidelines](https://rust-lang.github.io/api-guidelines/naming.html#ad-hoc-conversions-follow-as_-to_-into_-conventions-c-conv) for ad-hoc conversions.
The conversion functions on `Value` now come in a few forms:
- `coerce_{type}` takes a `&Value` and attempts to convert the value to
`type` (e.g., `i64` are converted to `f64`). This is the old behavior of
some of the `as_{type}` functions -- these functions have simply been
renamed to better reflect what they do.
- The new `as_{type}` functions take a `&Value` and returns an `Ok`
result only if the value is of `type` (no conversion is attempted). The
returned value will be borrowed if `type` is non-`Copy`, otherwise an
owned value is returned.
- `into_{type}` exists for non-`Copy` types, but otherwise does not
attempt conversion just like `as_type`. It takes an owned `Value` and
always returns an owned result.
- `coerce_into_{type}` has the same relationship with `coerce_{type}` as
`into_{type}` does with `as_{type}`.
- `to_{kind}_string`: conversion to different string formats (debug,
abbreviated, etc.). Only two of the old string conversion functions were
removed, the rest have been renamed only.
- `to_{type}`: other conversion functions. Currently, only `to_path`
exists. (And `to_string` through `Display`.)
This table summaries the above:
| Form | Cost | Input Ownership | Output Ownership | Converts `Value`
case/`type` |
| ---------------------------- | ----- | --------------- |
---------------- | -------- |
| `as_{type}` | Cheap | Borrowed | Borrowed/Owned | No |
| `into_{type}` | Cheap | Owned | Owned | No |
| `coerce_{type}` | Cheap | Borrowed | Borrowed/Owned | Yes |
| `coerce_into_{type}` | Cheap | Owned | Owned | Yes |
| `to_{kind}_string` | Expensive | Borrowed | Owned | Yes |
| `to_{type}` | Expensive | Borrowed | Owned | Yes |

# Description
Previously, only direcly-recursive calls were checked for recursion
depth. But most recursive calls in nushell are mutually recursive since
expressions like `for`, `where`, `try` and `do` all execute a separte
block.
```nushell
def f [] {
do { f }
}
```
Calling `f` would crash nushell with a stack overflow.
I think the only general way to prevent such a stack overflow is to
enforce a maximum call stack depth instead of only disallowing directly
recursive calls.
This commit also moves that logic into `eval_call()` instead of
`eval_block()` because the recursion limit is tracked in the `Stack`,
but not all blocks are evaluated in a new stack. Incrementing the
recursion depth of the caller's stack would permanently increment that
for all future calls.
Fixes#11667
# User-Facing Changes
Any function call can now fail with `recursion_limit_reached` instead of
just directly recursive calls. Mutually-recursive calls no longer crash
nushell.

Nushell panics when the spread operator is used like this (the
`...$rest` shouldn't actually be parsed as a spread operator at all):
```nu
$ def foo [...rest: string] {...$rest}
$ foo bar baz
thread 'main' panicked at /root/.cargo/registry/src/index.crates.io-6f17d22bba15001f/nu-protocol-0.89.0/src/signature.rs:650:9:
Internal error: can't run a predeclaration without a body

note: Some details are omitted, run with `RUST_BACKTRACE=full` for a verbose backtrace.
```
The problem was that whenever the parser saw something like `{...$`,
`{...(`, or `{...[`, it would treat that as a record with a spread
expression, ignoring the syntax shape of the block it was parsing. This
should now be fixed, and the snippet above instead gives the following
error:
```nu
Error: nu:🐚:external_command
× External command failed

# Description
Fixes: #11455
### For arguments which is annotated with `:path/:directory/:glob`
To fix the issue, we need to have a way to know if a path is originally
quoted during runtime. So the information needed to be added at several
levels:
* parse time (from user input to expression)
We need to add quoted information into `Expr::Filepath`,
`Expr::Directory`, `Expr::GlobPattern`
* eval time
When convert from `Expr::Filepath`, `Expr::Directory`,
`Expr::GlobPattern` to `Value::String` during runtime, we won't auto
expanded the path if it's quoted
### For `ls`
It's really special, because it accepts a `String` as a pattern, and it
generates `glob` expression inside the command itself.
So the idea behind the change is introducing a special SyntaxShape to
ls: `SyntaxShape::LsGlobPattern`. So we can track if the pattern is
originally quoted easier, and we don't auto expand the path either.
Then when constructing a glob pattern inside ls, we check if input
pattern is quoted, if so: we escape the input pattern, so we can run `ls
a[123]b`, because it's already escaped.
Finally, to accomplish the checking process, we also need to introduce a
new value type called `Value::QuotedString` to differ from
`Value::String`, it's used to generate an enum called `NuPath`, which is
finally used in `ls` function. `ls` learned from `NuPath` to know if
user input is quoted.

# Description
Adds a CLI flag for nushell that disables reading and writing to the
history file. This will be useful for future testing and possibly our
users as well. To borrow `fish` shell's terminology, this allows users
to start nushell in "private" mode.
# User-Facing Changes
Breaking API change for `nu-protocol` (changed `Config`).
# Description / User-Facing Changes
Signals are no longer blocked for child processes launched from both
interactive and non-interactive mode. The only exception is that
`SIGTSTP`, `SIGTTIN`, and `SIGTTOU` remain blocked for child processes
launched only from **interactive** mode. This is to help prevent nushell
from getting into an unrecoverable state, since we don't support
background jobs. Anyways, this fully fixes#9026.
# Other Notes
- Needs Rust version `>= 1.66` for a fix in
`std::process::Command::spawn`, but it looks our current Rust version is
way above this.
- Uses `sigaction` instead of `signal`, since the behavior of `signal`
can apparently differ across systems. Also, the `sigaction` man page
says:
> The sigaction() function supersedes the signal() function, and should
be used in preference.
Additionally, using both `sigaction` and `signal` is not recommended.
Since we were already using `sigaction` in some places (and possibly
some of our dependencies as well), this PR replaces all usages of
`signal`.
# Tests
Might want to wait for #11178 for testing.
# Description
When nushell calls a plugin it now sends a configuration `Value` from
the nushell config under `$env.config.plugins.PLUGIN_SHORT_NAME`. This
allows plugin authors to read configuration provided by plugin users.
The `PLUGIN_SHORT_NAME` must match the registered filename after
`nu_plugin_`. If you register `target/debug/nu_plugin_config` the
`PLUGIN_NAME` will be `config` and the nushell config will loook like:
$env.config = {
# ...
plugins: {
config: [
some
values
]
}
}
Configuration may also use a closure which allows passing values from
`$env` to a plugin:
$env.config = {
# ...
plugins: {
config: {||
$env.some_value
}
}
}
This is a breaking change for the plugin API as the `Plugin::run()`
function now accepts a new configuration argument which is an
`&Option<Value>`. If no configuration was supplied the value is `None`.
Plugins compiled after this change should work with older nushell, and
will behave as if the configuration was not set.
Initially discussed in #10867
# User-Facing Changes
* Plugins can read configuration data stored in `$env.config.plugins`
* The plugin `CallInfo` now includes a `config` entry, existing plugins
will require updates

# Description
Fixes: #11438
Take the following as example:
```nushell
def spam [foo: string] {
$'foo: ($foo | describe)'
}
def outer [--foo: string] {
spam $foo
}
outer
```
When we call `outer`, type checker only check the all for `outer`, but
doesn't check inside the body of `outer`. This pr is trying to introduce
a type checking process through `Type::is_subtype()` during eval time.
## NOTE
I'm not really sure if it's easy to make a check inside the body of
`outer`. Adding an eval time type checker seems like an easier solution.
As a result: `outer` will be caught by runtime, not parse time type
checker

- If a custom command doesn't have a rest parameter and it doesn't allow
unknown arguments either, the spread operator will not be allowed
- Passing lists to external commands without `...` will work for now but
will cause a deprecation warning saying that it'll stop working in 0.91
(is 2 versions enough time?)
Here's a function to help with demonstrating some behavior:
```nushell
> def foo [ a, b, c?, d?, ...rest ] { [$a $b $c $d $rest] | to nuon }
```
You can pass a list of arguments to fill in the `rest` parameter using
`...`:
```nushell
> foo 1 2 3 4 ...[5 6]
[1, 2, 3, 4, [5, 6]]
```
If you don't use `...`, the list `[5 6]` will be treated as a single
argument:
```nushell
> foo 1 2 3 4 [5 6] # Note the double [[]]
[1, 2, 3, 4, [[5, 6]]]
```
You can omit optional parameters before the spread arguments:
```nushell
> foo 1 2 3 ...[4 5] # d is omitted here
[1, 2, 3, null, [4, 5]]
```
If you have multiple lists, you can spread them all:
```nushell
> foo 1 2 3 ...[4 5] 6 7 ...[8] ...[]
[1, 2, 3, null, [4, 5, 6, 7, 8]]
```
Here's the kind of error you get when you try to spread arguments to a
command with no rest parameter:
![image](https://github.com/nushell/nushell/assets/45539777/93faceae-00eb-4e59-ac3f-17f98436e6e4)
And this is the warning you get when you pass a list to an external now
(without `...`):

Added tests to cover the following cases:
- Spreading arguments to a command that doesn't have a rest parameter
(unexpected spread argument error)
- Spreading arguments to a command that doesn't have a rest parameter
*but* there's also a missing positional argument (missing positional
error)
- Spreading arguments to a command that doesn't have a rest parameter
but does allow unknown arguments, such as `exec` (allowed)
- Spreading a list literal containing arguments of the wrong type (parse
error)
- Spreading a non-list value, both to internal and external commands
- Having named arguments in the middle of rest arguments
- `explain`ing a command call that spreads its arguments

# Examples
Suppose you have multiple tables:
```nushell
let people = [[id name age]; [0 alice 100] [1 bob 200] [2 eve 300]]
let evil_twins = [[id name age]; [0 ecila 100] [-1 bob 200] [-2 eve 300]]
```
Maybe you often find yourself needing to merge multiple tables and want
a utility to do that. You could write a function like this:
```nushell
def merge_all [ ...tables ] { $tables | reduce { |it, acc| $acc | merge $it } }
```
Then you can use it like this:
```nushell
> merge_all ...([$people $evil_twins] | each { |$it| $it | select name age })
╭───┬───────┬─────╮
│ # │ name │ age │
├───┼───────┼─────┤
│ 0 │ ecila │ 100 │
│ 1 │ bob │ 200 │
│ 2 │ eve │ 300 │
╰───┴───────┴─────╯
```
Except they had duplicate columns, so now you first want to suffix every
column with a number to tell you which table the column came from. You
can make a command for that:
```nushell
def select_and_merge [ --cols: list<string>, ...tables ] {
let renamed_tables = $tables
| enumerate
| each { |it|
$it.item | select $cols | rename ...($cols | each { |col| $col + ($it.index | into string) })
};
merge_all ...$renamed_tables
}
```
And call it like this:
```nushell
> select_and_merge --cols [name age] $people $evil_twins
╭───┬───────┬──────┬───────┬──────╮
│ # │ name0 │ age0 │ name1 │ age1 │
├───┼───────┼──────┼───────┼──────┤
│ 0 │ alice │ 100 │ ecila │ 100 │
│ 1 │ bob │ 200 │ bob │ 200 │
│ 2 │ eve │ 300 │ eve │ 300 │
╰───┴───────┴──────┴───────┴──────╯
```
---
Suppose someone's made a command to search for APT packages:
```nushell
# The main command
def search-pkgs [
--install # Whether to install any packages it finds
log_level: int # Pretend it's a good idea to make this a required positional parameter
exclude?: list<string> # Packages to exclude
repositories?: list<string> # Which repositories to look in (searches in all if not given)
...pkgs # Package names to search for
] {
{ install: $install, log_level: $log_level, exclude: ($exclude | to nuon), repositories: ($repositories | to nuon), pkgs: ($pkgs | to nuon) }
}
```
It has a lot of parameters to configure it, so you might make your own
helper commands to wrap around it for specific cases. Here's one
example:
```nushell
# Only look for packages locally
def search-pkgs-local [
--install # Whether to install any packages it finds
log_level: int
exclude?: list<string> # Packages to exclude
...pkgs # Package names to search for
] {
# All required and optional positional parameters are given
search-pkgs --install=$install $log_level [] ["<local URI or something>"] ...$pkgs
}
```
And you can run it like this:
```nushell
> search-pkgs-local --install=false 5 ...["python2.7" "vim"]
╭──────────────┬──────────────────────────────╮
│ install │ false │
│ log_level │ 5 │
│ exclude │ [] │
│ repositories │ ["<local URI or something>"] │
│ pkgs │ ["python2.7", vim] │
╰──────────────┴──────────────────────────────╯
```
One thing I realized when writing this was that if we decide to not
allow passing optional arguments using the spread operator, then you can
(mis?)use the spread operator to skip optional parameters. Here, I
didn't want to give `exclude` explicitly, so I used a spread operator to
pass the packages to install. Without it, I would've needed to do
`search-pkgs-local --install=false 5 [] "python2.7" "vim"` (explicitly
pass `[]` (or `null`, in the general case) to `exclude`). There are
probably more idiomatic ways to do this, but I just thought it was
something interesting.
If you're a virologist of the [xkcd](https://xkcd.com/350/) kind,
another helper command you might make is this:
```nushell
# Install any packages it finds
def live-dangerously [ ...pkgs ] {
# One optional argument was given (exclude), while another was not (repositories)
search-pkgs 0 [] ...$pkgs --install # Flags can go after spread arguments
}
```
Running it:
```nushell
> live-dangerously "git" "*vi*" # *vi* because I don't feel like typing out vim and neovim
╭──────────────┬─────────────╮
│ install │ true │
│ log_level │ 0 │
│ exclude │ [] │
│ repositories │ null │
│ pkgs │ [git, *vi*] │
╰──────────────┴─────────────╯
```
Here's an example that uses the spread operator more than once within
the same command call:
```nushell
let extras = [ chrome firefox python java git ]
def search-pkgs-curated [ ...pkgs ] {
(search-pkgs
1
[emacs]
["example.com", "foo.com"]
vim # A must for everyone!
...($pkgs | filter { |p| not ($p | str contains "*") }) # Remove packages with globs
python # Good tool to have
...$extras
--install=false
python3) # I forget, did I already put Python in extras?
}
```
Running it:
```nushell
> search-pkgs-curated "git" "*vi*"
╭──────────────┬───────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────╮
│ install │ false │
│ log_level │ 1 │
│ exclude │ [emacs] │
│ repositories │ [example.com, foo.com] │
│ pkgs │ [vim, git, python, chrome, firefox, python, java, git, "python3"] │

# Description
Currently, when writing a record, if you don't give the value for a
field, the syntax error highlights the entire record instead of
pinpointing the issue. Here's some examples:
```nushell
> { a: 2, 3 } # Missing colon (and value)
Error: nu::parser::parse_mismatch
× Parse mismatch during operation.
╭─[entry #2:1:1]
1 │ { a: 2, 3 }
· ─────┬─────
· ╰── expected record
╰────
> { a: 2, 3: } # Missing value
Error: nu::parser::parse_mismatch
× Parse mismatch during operation.
╭─[entry #3:1:1]
1 │ { a: 2, 3: }
· ──────┬─────
· ╰── expected record
╰────
> { a: 2, 3 4 } # Missing colon
Error: nu::parser::parse_mismatch
× Parse mismatch during operation.
╭─[entry #4:1:1]
1 │ { a: 2, 3 4 }
· ──────┬──────
· ╰── expected record
╰────
```
In all of them, the entire record is highlighted red because an
`Expr::Garbage` is returned covering that whole span:
![image](https://github.com/nushell/nushell/assets/45539777/36660b50-23be-4353-b180-3f84eff3c220)
This PR is for highlighting only the part inside the record that could
not be parsed. If the record literal is big, an error message pointing
to the start of where the parser thinks things went wrong should help
people fix their code.
# User-Facing Changes
Below are screenshots of the new errors:
If there's a stray record key right before the record ends, it
highlights only that key and tells the user it expected a colon after
it:
![image](https://github.com/nushell/nushell/assets/45539777/94503256-8ea2-47dd-b69a-4b520c66f7b6)
If the record ends before the value for the last field was given, it
highlights the key and colon of that field and tells the user it
expected a value after the colon:
![image](https://github.com/nushell/nushell/assets/45539777/2f3837ec-3b35-4b81-8c57-706f8056ac04)
If there are two consecutive expressions without a colon between them,
it highlights everything from the second expression to the end of the
record and tells the user it expected a colon. I was tempted to add a
help message suggesting adding a colon in between, but that may not
always be the right thing to do.

# Description
While #11057 is merged, it's hard to tell the difference between

After discussion, I think we can deprecate `--flag: bool` usage, and
encourage using `--flag` instead.

# Description
This PR is kind of two PRs in one because they were dependent on each
other.
PR1 -
3de58d4dc2
with update
7fcdb242d9
- This follows our mantra of having everything with defaults written in
nushell rust code. So, that if you run without a config, you get the
same behavior as with the default config/env files. This sets
NU_LIB_DIRS to $nu.config-path/scripts and sets NU_PLUGIN_DIRS to
$nu.config-path/plugins.
PR2 -
0e8ac876fd
- The benchmarks have been broke for some time and we didn't notice it.
This PR fixes that. It's dependent on PR1 because it was throwing errors
because PWD needed to be set to a valid folder and `$nu` did not exist
based on how the benchmark was setup.
I've tested the benchmarks and they run without error now and I've also
launched nushell as `nu -n --no-std-lib` and the env vars exist.

Goes towards implementing #10598, which asks for a spread operator in
lists, in records, and when calling commands (continuation of #11006,
which only implements it in lists)
# Description
This PR is for adding a spread operator that can be used when building
records. Additional functionality can be added later.
Changes:
- Previously, the `Expr::Record` variant held `(Expression, Expression)`
pairs. It now holds instances of an enum `RecordItem` (the name isn't
amazing) that allows either a key-value mapping or a spread operator.
- `...` will be treated as the spread operator when it appears before
`$`, `{`, or `(` inside records (no whitespace allowed in between) (not
implemented yet)
- The error message for duplicate columns now includes the column name
itself, because if two spread records are involved in such an error, you
can't tell which field was duplicated from the spans alone
`...` will still be treated as a normal string outside records, and even
in records, it is not treated as a spread operator when not followed
immediately by a `$`, `{`, or `(`.
# User-Facing Changes
Users will be able to use `...` when building records.
```
> let rec = { x: 1, ...{ a: 2 } }
> $rec
╭───┬───╮
│ x │ 1 │
│ a │ 2 │
╰───┴───╯
> { foo: bar, ...$rec, baz: blah }
╭─────┬──────╮
│ foo │ bar │
│ x │ 1 │
│ a │ 2 │
│ baz │ blah │
╰─────┴──────╯
```
If you want to update a field of a record, you'll have to use `merge`
instead:
```
> { ...$rec, x: 5 }
Error: nu:🐚:column_defined_twice
× Record field or table column used twice: x
╭─[entry #2:1:1]
1 │ { ...$rec, x: 5 }
· ──┬─ ┬

· ╰── field first defined here

About the change:
When we make an internalcall, and meet a `switch` (Flag.arg is None),
nushell will try to see if the switch is called like `--xyz=false` , if
that is true, `parse_long_flag` will return relative value.
# User-Facing Changes
So after the pr, the following would be possible:
```nushell
def build-imp [--push, --release] {
echo $"Doing a build with push: ($push) and release: ($release)"
}
def build [--push, --release] {
build-imp --push=$push --release=$release

build --push --release=false
build --push=false --release=true
build --push=false --release=false
build --push --release

# Description
Fixes: #11033
Sorry for the issue, it's a regression which introduce by this pr:
#10456.
And this pr is going to fix it.
About the change: create a new field named `type_annotated` for
`Arg::Flag` and `Arg::Signature` instead of `arg_explicit_type`
variable.
When we meet a type in `TypeMode`, we set `type_annotated` field of the
argument to be true, then we know that if the arg have a annotated type
easily
The `color-backtrace` crate does not seem to either handle the terminal
modes well or operate in a way that the unwinding has not yet succeeded
to reach the backup disablement of the terminal raw mode in
`reedline::Reedline`'s `Drop` implementation.
This reverts commit d838871063.
Fixes#11029
This pull request fixes the tests for the `cargo.exe check` command. The
tests were failing due `cargo check -h` sometimes reporting `cargo.exe`
as the binary and thus not containing `cargo check` in the output.
The fix involves using the `Command` module from the `std::process`
library to run the command and comparing its output to the expected
output. No changes were made to the codebase itself.
# Description
Add an extension trait `IgnoreCaseExt` to nu_utils which adds some case
insensitivity helpers, and use them throughout nu to improve the
handling of case insensitivity. Proper case folding is done via unicase,
which is already a dependency via mime_guess from nu-command.
In actuality a lot of code still does `to_lowercase`, because unicase
only provides immediate comparison and doesn't expose a `to_folded_case`
yet. And since we do a lot of `contains`/`starts_with`/`ends_with`, it's
not sufficient to just have `eq_ignore_case`. But if we get access in
the future, this makes us ready to use it with a change in one place.
Plus, it's clearer what the purpose is at the call site to call
`to_folded_case` instead of `to_lowercase` if it's exclusively for the
purpose of case insensitive comparison, even if it just does
`to_lowercase` still.
# User-Facing Changes
- Some commands that were supposed to be case insensitive remained only
insensitive to ASCII case (a-z), and now are case insensitive w.r.t.
non-ASCII characters as well.

# Description
Pretty much all operations/commands in Nushell assume that the column
names/keys in a record and thus also in a table (which consists of a
list of records) are unique.
Access through a string-like cell path should refer to a single column
or key/value pair and our output through `table` will only show the last
mention of a repeated column name.
```nu
[[a a]; [1 2]]
╭─#─┬─a─╮
│ 0 │ 2 │
╰───┴───╯
```
While the record parsing already either errors with the
`ShellError::ColumnDefinedTwice` or silently overwrites the first
occurence with the second occurence, the table literal syntax `[[header
columns]; [val1 val2]]` currently still allowed the creation of tables
(and internally records with more than one entry with the same name.
This is not only confusing, but also breaks some assumptions around how
we can efficiently perform operations or in the past lead to outright
bugs (e.g. #8431 fixed by #8446).
This PR proposes to make this an error.
After this change another hole which allowed the construction of records
with non-unique column names will be plugged.
## Parts
- Fix `SE::ColumnDefinedTwice` error code
- Remove previous tests permitting duplicate columns
- Deny duplicate column in table literal eval
- Deny duplicate column in const eval
- Deny duplicate column in `from nuon`
# User-Facing Changes
`[[a a]; [1 2]]` will now return an error:
```
Error: nu:🐚:column_defined_twice
× Record field or table column used twice
╭─[entry #2:1:1]
1 │ [[a a]; [1 2]]
· ┬ ┬
· │ ╰── field redefined here
· ╰── field first defined here
╰────
```
this may under rare circumstances block code from evaluating.
Furthermore this makes some NUON files invalid if they previously
contained tables with repeated column names.
# Tests + Formatting
Added tests for each of the different evaluation paths that materialize
tables.
# Description
This PR corrects some help text by stating what the real delimiter is
for the `--include-path` command line parameter which is `char
record_sep` aka `\x1e`. Up to this point, this has really only been used
for the vscode extension to setup the NU_LIB_DIRS env var correctly. We
tried `:` and `;` and neither would work so we had to choose something
that wouldn't be confused so easily.

# Description
This PR adds the ability to use modulo with durations:
```nu
(2min + 31sec) mod 20sec # 11sec
```
# User-Facing Changes
Allows to use `<duration> mod <duration>`
# Description
Relax typechecking of key-less `table`/`record`
Assume that they are acceptable for more narrowly specified
`table<...>`/`record<...>` where `...` specifies keys and potentially
types for those keys/columns.
This ensures that you can use commands that specify general return
values statically with more specific input-/args-type requirements.
Reduces the power of the type-check a bit but unlocks you to actually
use the specific annotations in more places.
Incompatibilities will only be raised if an output type declares
specific columns/keys.
Closes#9702
Supersedes #10594 as a simpler solution requiring no extra distinction.
h/t @1kinoti, @NotLebedev
# User-Facing Changes
Now legal at type-check time
```nu
def foo []: nothing -> table { [] }
def foo []: nothing -> table<> { ls }
def bar []: table<a:int,b:string> -> nothing {}
foo | bar

# Tests + Formatting
- 1 explicit test with specified relaxed return type passed to concrete
expected input type

- 1 test wrapping a general built-in command and verifying the type
inference in the function body
# Description
To my knowledge `type@completer` annotations only make sense in
arguments at the moment.
Restrict the parsing.
Also fix a bug in parsing the completer annotation should there be more
than 1 `@`
- Add test that we disallow completer in type
- Guard against `@` inside command name
- Disallow custom completers in type specification
# User-Facing Changes

# Description
When referring to the type use `int` consistently. Only when referring
to the concept of integer numbers use `integer`.
- Fix `random integer` to `random int` tests
- Forgot in #10520
- Use int instead of integer in error messages
- Use int type name in bits commands
- Fix messages in `for` examples
- Use int typename in `into` commands
- Use int typename in rest of commands
- Report errors in `nu-protocol` with int typename

thanks to @jntrnr and their super useful tips on this PR, i learned
about the parser + evaluation, so 🙏
# Description
because we already have `null` as the value of the type `nothing` and as
a followup to the two other attempts of mine, i propose to remove the
redundant `$nothing` built-in variable 😋
this PR is the first step, deprecating `$nothing`.
a followup PR will remove it altogether and wait for 0.87 👍⚙️ **details**: a new `NOTHING_VARIABLE_ID = 3` has been added,
parsing `$nothing` will create it, finally a `Value::Nothing` will be
produced and a warning will be reported.
this PR already fixes the `toolkit.nu` module so that it does not throw
a bunch of warnings each time 👌
# User-Facing Changes

# Tests + Formatting
tests have been updated, especially

# Description
Fixes: #10450
This pr differentiating between `--x: bool` and `--x`
Here are examples which demostrate difference between them:
```nushell
def a [--x: bool] { $x };
a --x # not allowed, you need to parse a value to the flag.
a # it's allowed, and the value of `$x` is false, which behaves the same to `def a [--x] { $x }; a`
```
For boolean flag with default value, it works a little bit different to
#10450 mentioned:
```nushell
def foo [--option: bool = false] { $option }
foo # output false
foo --option # not allowed, you need to parse a value to the flag.
foo --option true # output true
```
# User-Facing Changes
After the pr, the following code is not allowed:
```nushell
def a [--x: bool] { $x }; a --x
```
Instead, you have to pass a value to flag `--x` like `a --x false`. But
bare flag works in the same way as before.
## Update: one more breaking change to help on #7260
```
def foo [--option: bool] { $option == null }
foo
```
After the pr, if we don't use a boolean flag, the value will be `null`
instead of `true`. Because here `--option: bool` is treated as a flag
rather than a switch

Before this change, parsing `[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[` would cause nushell
to consume several gigabytes of memory, now it should be linear in time.
The old code first tried parsing the head of the table as a list and
then after that it checked if it got more arguments. If it didn't, it
throws away the previous result and tries to parse the whole thing as a
list, which means we call `parse_list_expression` twice for each call to
`parse_table_expression`, resulting in the exponential growth
The fix is to simply check that we have all the arguments we need before
parsing the head of the table, so we know that we will either call
parse_list_expression only on sub-expressions or on the whole thing,
never both.

# Description
When launching nushell interactively from another shell, the parent
shell usually gives us own our process group and handles restoring
control to itself. However, other programs that do not support job
control expect us to give control of the terminal back to them. This PR
makes it so that we record the initial foreground process group and
restore it when nushell exits. An "exit" can be from the `exit` command,
a panic, or a `SIGTERM` signal.
The changes in `terminal.rs` mostly follow [fish's
example](0874dd6a96/fish-rust/src/common.rs (L1634)).
# User-Facing Changes
Fixes interactions between nushell and other interactive CLI commands
(e.g., VIFM #10015).
# Description
This PR allows the `--login`/`-l` parameter to be used with nushell's
`--commands`/`-c` parameter. When you do this, since you're invoking it
with the `-l` flag, nushell will load your env.nu, config.nu, and
login.nu, in that order. Then it will proceed to run your commands. I
think this provides a better quality of life when you want to run
scripts with your personal config files as a login shell.

# Description
before this PR,
```nushell
> $.a.b | describe
cell path
```
which feels inconsistent with the `cell-path` type annotation, like in
```nushell
> def foo [x: cell-path] { $x | describe }; foo $.a.b
cell path
```
this PR changes the name of the "cell path" type from `cell path` to
`cell-path`
# User-Facing Changes
`cell path` is now `cell-path` in the output of `describe`.
this might be a breaking change in some scripts.
same goes with
- `list stream` -> `list-stream`
- `match pattern` -> `match-pattern`
# Tests + Formatting
- 🟢 `toolkit fmt`
- 🟢 `toolkit clippy`
- ⚫ `toolkit test`

this PR adds a new `cell_path_type` test to make sure it stays equal to
`cell-path` in the future.

This pr
- fixes https://github.com/nushell/nushell/issues/10143
- fixes https://github.com/nushell/nushell/issues/5559
# Description
Current `lite_parse` does not handle multiple line comments and eols in
pipeline.
When parsing the following tokens:
| `"abcdefg"` | ` \|` | `# foobar` | ` \n` | `split chars` |
| ------------- | ------------- |------------- |-------------
|------------- |
| [Command] | [Pipe] | [Comment] | [Eol] | [Command] |
| | | Last Token |Current Token | |
`TokenContent::Eol` handler only checks if `last_token` is `Pipe` but it
will be broken if there exist any other thing, e.g. extra `[Comment]` in
this example.
This pr make the following change:
- While parsing `[Eol]`, try to find the last non-comment token as
`last_token`
- Comment is supposed as `[Comment]+` or `([Comment] [Eol])+`
- `[Eol]+` is still parsed just like current nu (i.e. generates
`nothing`).
Notice that this pr is just a quick patch if more comment/eol related
issue occures, `lite_parser` may need a rewrite.
# User-Facing Changes
Now the following pipeline works:
```bash
1 | # comment
each { |it| $it + 2 } | # comment
math sum
```
Comment will not end the pipeline in interactive mode:
```bash

▶▶ # foo
▶▶ 2
```

I moved hook to *nu_cmd_base* instead of *nu_cli* because it will enable
other developers to continue to use hook even if they decide to write
their on cli or NOT depend on nu-cli
Then they will still have the hook functionality because they can
include nu-cmd-base
