# 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.

Debug assertions don't run at release, which means that `cargo test
--release` fails because the tests for name checks don't run properly.
These checks are not really expensive, and there shouldn't be any
noticeable difference to startup time, so there isn't much reason not to
just leave them in.
It's valuable to be able to run `cargo test --release`, as that can
expose race conditions and dependencies on undefined behavior that
aren't exposed in debug builds.

# Description
Since there are plans to add more history commands, it seems sensible to
put them into their own module and category

# Description
Replace `.to_string()` used in `GenericError` with `.into()` as
`.into()` seems more popular
Replace `Vec::new()` used in `GenericError` with `vec![]` as `vec![]`
seems more popular
(There are so, so many)

# Description
In the past we named the process of completely removing a command and
providing a basic error message pointing to the new alternative
"deprecation".
But this doesn't match the expectation of most users that have seen
deprecation _warnings_ that alert to either impending removal or
discouraged use after a stability promise.
# User-Facing Changes
Command category changed from `deprecated` to `removed`
# Description
This PR does three related changes:
* Keeps the originally declared name in help outputs.
* Updates the name of the commands called `main` in the user script to
the name of the script.
* Fixes the source of signature information in multiple places. This
allows scripts to have more complete help output.
Combined, the above allow the user to see the script name in the help
output of scripts, like so:
![image](https://github.com/nushell/nushell/assets/547158/741d192c-0a39-45a7-8f36-3a0dc8eeae2b)
NOTE: You still declare and call the definition `main`, so from inside
the script `main` is still the correct name. But multiple folks agreed
that seeing `main` in the script help was confusing, so this PR changes
that.
# User-Facing Changes
One potential minor breaking change is that module renames will be shown
as their originally defined name rather than the renamed name. I believe
this to be a better default.

# Description
With the current typechecking logic this property has no effect.
It was only used in the example testing, and provided some indication of
this vectorizing property.
With #9742 all commands that previously declared it have explicit list
signatures. If we want to get it back in the future we can reconstruct
it from the signature.
Simplifies the example testing a bit.
# User-Facing Changes
Causes a breaking change for plugins that previously declared it. While
this causes a compile fail, this was already broken by our more
stringent type checking.
This will be a good reminder for plugin authors to update their
signature as well to reflect the more stringent type checking.
# Description
This PR does a few things to help improve type hovers and, in the
process, fixes a few outstanding issues in the type system. Here's a
list of the changes:
* `for` now will try to infer the type of the iteration variable based
on the expression it's given. This fixes things like `for x in [1, 2, 3]
{ }` where `x` now properly gets the int type.
* Removed old input/output type fields from the signature, focuses on
the vec of signatures. Updated a bunch of dataframe commands that hadn't
moved over. This helps tie things together a bit better
* Fixed inference of types from subexpressions to use the last
expression in the block
* Fixed handling of explicit types in `let` and `mut` calls, so we now
respect that as the authoritative type
I also tried to add `def` input/output type inference, but unfortunately
we only know the predecl types universally, which means we won't have
enough information to properly know what the types of the custom
commands are.
# User-Facing Changes
Script typechecking will get tighter in some cases
Hovers should be more accurate in some cases that previously resorted to
any.

# Description
Follow-up of #8940. As @bobhy pointed out, it makes sense for the
behaviour of flags to match the one for positional arguments, where
default values are of type `Option<Value>` instead of
`Option<Expression>`.
# User-Facing Changes
The same ones from the original PR:
- Flag default values will now be parsed as constants.
- If the default value is not a constant, a parser error is displayed.
# Tests + Formatting
A [new
test](e34e2d35f4/src/tests/test_engine.rs (L338-L344))
has been added to verify the new restriction.
# Description
Fixes#8939.
# User-Facing Changes
- Parameter default values will now be parsed as constants.
- If the default value is not a constant, a parser error is displayed.
# Tests + Formatting
The [only affected
test](d42c2b2dbc/src/tests/test_engine.rs (L325-L328))
has been updated to reflect the new behavior.
# Description
This PR does the following:
1. Adds a new command called `view span` - which shows what is at the
location of the span parameters
2. Adds a new command called `view` - which just lists all the `view`
commands.
3. Renames `view-source` to `view source`.
4. Adds a new command called `view files` - which shows you what files
are loaded into nushell's EngineState memory.
5. Added a `Category::Debug` and put these commands (and others) into
it. (`inspect` needs to be added to it, but it's not landed yet)
Spans are important to nushell. One of their uses is to show where
errors are. For instance, in this example, the leader lines pointing to
parts of the command line are able to point to `10`, `/`, and `"bob"`
because each of those items have a span.
```
> 10 / "bob"
Error: nu::parser::unsupported_operation (link)
× Types mismatched for operation.
╭─[entry #8:1:1]
1 │ 10 / "bob"
· ─┬ ┬ ──┬──
· │ │ ╰── string
· │ ╰── doesn't support these values.
· ╰── int
╰────
help: Change int or string to be the right types and try again.
```
# Examples
## view span
Example:
```
> $env.config | get keybindings | first | debug -r
... bunch of stuff
span: Span {
start: 68065,
end: 68090,
},
},
],
span: Span {

end: 68101,
},
},
],
span: Span {
start: 67927,
end: 68108,
},
}
```
To view the last span:
```

}
```
> To view the 2nd to last span:
```

> To view the 3rd to last span:
```
view span 68050 68101

* Remove panic from BlockCommands run function
Instead of panicing, the run method now returns an error to prevent
nushell from unexpected termination.
* Add ability to open command to run with blocks
The open command tries to parse the content of the file
if there is a command called 'from (file ending)'. This works
fine if the command was 'built in' because the run method doesn't
fail in this case. It did fail on a BlockCommand, though.
This change will first probe if the command contains a block and
evaluate it, if this is the case. If there is no block, it will run
the command the same way as before.
* Add test open files with BlockCommands
* Update open.rs
* Adjust file type on open with BlockCommand parser

* Throw in foldl search term for reduce
