This PR will allow spreading arguments to commands (both internal and
external). It will also deprecate spreading arguments automatically when
passing to external commands.
# User-Facing Changes
<!-- List of all changes that impact the user experience here. This
helps us keep track of breaking changes. -->
- Users will be able to use `...` to spread arguments to custom/builtin
commands that have rest parameters or allow unknown arguments, or to any
external command
- 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:
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:
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:
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:
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.
# Tests + Formatting
# After Submitting
# Description
`Expression::replace_in_variable` is only called in one place, and it is
called with `new_var_id` = `IN_VARIABLE_ID`. So, it ends up doing
nothing. E.g., adding `debug_assert_eq!(new_var_id, IN_VARIABLE_ID)` in
`replace_in_variable` does not trigger any panic.
# User-Facing Changes
Breaking change for `nu_protocol`.
# Description
While #11057 is merged, it's hard to tell the difference between
`--flag: bool` and `--flag`, and it makes user hard to read custom
commands' signature, and hard to use them correctly.
After discussion, I think we can deprecate `--flag: bool` usage, and
encourage using `--flag` instead.
# User-Facing Changes
The following code will raise warning message, but don't stop from
running.
```nushell

# Description
to allow more freedom when writing complex modules, we are disabling the
auto-export of director modules.
the change was as simple as removing the crawling of files and modules
next to any `mod.nu` and update the standard library.
# User-Facing Changes
users will have to explicitely use `export module <mod>` to define
submodules and `export use <mod> <cmd>` to re-export definitions, e.g.
```nushell
# my-module/mod.nu
export module foo.nu # export a submodule
export use bar.nu bar-1 # re-export an internal command
export def top [] {
print "`top` from `mod.nu`"
}
```
```nushell
# my-module/foo.nu
export def "foo-1" [] {
print "`foo-1` from `lib/foo.nu`"
}
export def "foo-2" [] {
print "`foo-2` from `lib/foo.nu`"
}
```
```nushell
# my-module/bar.nu
export def "bar-1" [] {
print "`bar-1` from `lib/bar.nu`"
}
```
# Tests + Formatting
i had to add `export module` calls in the `tests/modules/samples/spam`
directory module and allow the `not_allowed` module to not give an
error, it is just empty, which is fine.

It turns out that I left a bug in
[#11144](https://github.com/nushell/nushell/pull/11144/), which
introduced a spread operator in record literals. When highlighting
subexpressions that are spread inside records, the spread operator and
the token before it are insert twice. Currently, when you type `{ ...()
}`, this is what you'll see:
With the PR, the behavior is as expected:
I'm still not sure how `FlatShape` works, I just copied the existing
logic for flattening key-value pairs in records, so it's possible
there's still issues, but I haven't found any yet (tried spreading
subexpressions, variables, and records).
# User-Facing Changes

Highlighting for subexpressions spread inside records should no longer

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 │
│ 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]

Works for all arguments and flags. Because the signature parsing doesn't
give the spans, it is flags the entire signature.
Also added a constant with reserved variable names.
Fix#11158.
# Description
Close: #10278
This pr introduces `o>>`, `e>>`, `o+e>>` to allow redirection to append
to a file.
Examples:
```nushell
echo abc o>> a.txt
echo abc o>> a.txt
cat asdf e>> a.txt
cat asdf e>> a.txt
cat asdf o+e>> a.txt
```
~~TODO:~~
~~1. currently internal commands with `o+e>` redirect to a variable is
broken: `let x = "a.txt"; echo abc o+e> $x`, not sure when it was
introduced...~~
~~2. redirect stdout and stderr with append mode doesn't supported yet:
`cat asdf o>>a.txt e>>b.ext`~~
~~For these 2 items, I'd like to fix them in different prs.~~

# Description
This PR enables a new feature that shows which externals are found in
your path via the syntax highlighter as you type.
This idea could use some improvement where it caches the items in your
path and on some trigger, expires that cache and creates a new on. Right
now, all it does is call the `which` crate on every character you type.
This could be problematic if you have hundreds of paths in your PATH or
if some of your paths in your Path point to extraordinarily slow file

it up here for people to try and provide feedback. I think the novelty
of showing what is valid and what isn't is pretty cool. I believe
fish-shell also does this, IIRC.

# Description
Fixes: #10271
Given the following script:
```shell
# test.sh
echo aaaaa
echo bbbbb 1>&2
echo cc
```
This pr makes the following command possible:
```nushell
bash test.sh err> /dev/null | lines | each {|line| $line | str length}
```
## General idea behind the change:
When nushell redirect stderr message to external file
1. it take stdout of external stream, and pass this stream to next
command, so it won't block next pipeline command from running.
2. relative stderr stream are handled by `save` command
These two streams are handled separately, so we need to delegate a
thread to `save` command, or else we'll have a chance to hang nushell,
we have meet a similar before: #5625.
### One case to consider
What if we're failed to save to an external stream? (Like we don't have
a permission to save to a file)?
In this case nushell will just print a waning message, and don't stop
the following scripts from running.
# User-Facing Changes
## Before
```nushell
❯ bash test2.sh err> /dev/null | lines | each {|line| $line | str length}

╭───┬───╮
│ 0 │ 5 │
│ 1 │ 2 │
╰───┴───╯
```
BTY, after this pr, the following commands are impossible either, it's
important to make sure that the implementation doesn't introduce too
much costs:
```nushell
❯ echo a e> a.txt e> a.txt
Error: × Can't make stderr redirection twice
╭─[entry #1:1:1]

```
# Description
Closes: #7260
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
build

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
# 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
Fixes: #10830
The issue happened during lite-parsing, when we want to put a
`LiteElement` to a `LitePipeline`, we do nothing if relative redirection
target is empty.
So the command `echo aaa o> | ignore` will be interpreted to `echo aaa |
ignore`.
This pr is going to check and return an error if redirection target is
empty.

# Description
Since the `else` clause for the nested branches check for the first
unmatched argument, this PR brings together all the conditions where the
positional argument shape is numeric using the `matches!` keyword. This
also allows us to and (`&&`) the condition with when no short flags are
found unlike the `if let ...` statements. Finally, we can handle any
`unmatched_short_flags` at one place.
# User-Facing Changes
No user facing changes.
When looking into `lite_parse` function, I found that it contains some
duplicate code, and they can be expressed as an action called
`push_command_to(pipeline)`.
And I believe it will make our life easier to support something like
`o>> a.txt`, `e>> a.txt`.
In the final match of `lex_item`, we'll return `Err(ParseError)` in rare
case, normally we'll return None.
So I think making error part mutable can reduce some code, and it's
better if we want to add more lex items.
# 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.

Fix type checking in arguments default values not adhering to subtyping

Currently following examples produce a parse error:
```nu
def test [ --qwe: record<a: int> = {a: 1 b: 1} ] { }
def test [ --qwe: list<any> = [ 1 2 3 ] ] { }
```
despite types matching. Type equality check is replaced with subtyping
check and everything parses fine:
# User-Facing Changes
Default values of flag arguments type checking behavior is in line with
`let` statements
# Description
This PR fixes#9702 on the side of parse. I.e. input/output types in
signature and type annotations in `let` now should correctly parse with
type annotations that contain commas and spaces:
# User-Facing Changes

`table<a: int b: record<c: string d: datetime>>` e.t.c
# 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

When parse_range get an item like ((((1..2)))) it would try to parse
"((((1" with a long chain of recursive parsers, namely:
- parse_value
- parse_paren_expr
- parse_full_cell_path
- parse_block
- parse_pipeline
- parse_builtin_commands
- parse_expression
- parse_math_expression
- parse_value
- ...
where `parse_paren_expr` calls `parse_range` in turn. Because at any
time in the chain `parse_paren_expr` can call `parse_range`, which will
then continue the chain, we get quadratic number of function calls, each
linear on the size of the input
By checking with the lexer that the parens are matched, we prevent the
long chain from being called on unmatched braces. Now, this is still
more quadratic than it needs to be, to fix that, we should process
parens only once, instead of on each recursive call

# Other notes
Found using the fuzzer, by setting a timeout on max run-time. It also
found a stack-overflow on too many parentheses, which this doesn't fix.
# Description
Fixes: #10410
So the following script is possible:
```nushell
def a [b: any = null] { let b = ($b | default "default_b"); }
a "given_b"
```
## About the change
When parsing signature, and nushell meets something like `a: any`, it
force the parser to treat `a` as `any` type. This is what
`arg_explicit_type` means, it's only set when we goes into
`ParseMode::TypeMode`, and it will be reset to `false` if the token goes
to next argument.
so, when we have something like this: `def a [b: any = null] { $b }`,
the type of `$b` won't be overwritten.
But if we have something like this: `def a [b = null] { $b }`, the type
of `$b` is not annotated, so we make it to be `nothing`(which is the
type of null)

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.

Currently we support "multiplication" of strings, resulting in a terse
way to repeat a particular string.
This can have unintended side effects when dealing with mixed data (e.g.
after parsing data that is not all numbers).
Furthermore as we frequently fall-back to strings while parsing source
code, this introduced a runaway edge case in const evaluation (#10212)

- Remove python-like string multiplication.
- Workaround for indentation
- This should probably be addressed with a purpose built command
- Remove special const-eval error test

# Description
The pythonism that multiplying a scalar integer with a list results in a
repeated concatenation of the list, is ambiguous with other possible
interpretations and thus actively harmful to clear semantics in nushell.
Another possible reading of this scalar/vector product would be trying
to perform elementwise multiplication with the scalar.
Before we bless this alternative as a more reasonable design the best
course of action is to remove this pythonism.

Fix https://github.com/nushell/nushell/issues/10136
# Description
Current nushell only handle path containing '*' as match pattern and
treat '?' as just normal path.
This pr makes path containing '?' is also processed as pattern.
🔴 **Concerns: Need to design/comfirm a consistent rule to handle
dirs/files with '?' in their names.**
Currently:
- if no dir has exactly same name with pattern, it will print the list
of matched directories
- if pattern exactly matches an empty dir's name, it will just print the
empty dir's content ( i.e. `[]`)
- if pattern exactly matches an dir's name, it will perform pattern
match and print all the dir contains
e.g.
```bash
mkdir src
ls s?c
```

# Description
As part of the refactor to split spans off of Value, this moves to using
helper functions to create values, and using `.span()` instead of
matching span out of Value directly.
Hoping to get a few more helping hands to finish this, as there are a
lot of commands to update :)

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
❯ 1 | # comment (now enter multiple line mode instead of end)
▶▶ # foo
▶▶ 2
```

- fixes#10083
# Description
nushell crashes in the following 2 condition:
- `let a = {}` , then delete `{`
- `let a = | {}`, then delete `{`
When delete `{` the pipeline becomes empty but current `nu-parser`
assume they are non-empty. This pr adds extra empty check to avoid
crash.

# Description
This doesn't really do much that the user could see, but it helps get us
ready to do the steps of the refactor to split the span off of Value, so
that values can be spanless. This allows us to have top-level values
that can hold both a Value and a Span, without requiring that all values
have them.
We expect to see significant memory reduction by removing so many
unnecessary spans from values. For example, a table of 100,000 rows and
5 columns would have a savings of ~8megs in just spans that are almost
always duplicated.

# Description
This PR creates a new `Record` type to reduce duplicate code and
possibly bugs as well. (This is an edited version of #9648.)
- `Record` implements `FromIterator` and `IntoIterator` and so can be
iterated over or collected into. For example, this helps with
conversions to and from (hash)maps. (Also, no more
`cols.iter().zip(vals)`!)
- `Record` has a `push(col, val)` function to help insure that the
number of columns is equal to the number of values. I caught a few
potential bugs thanks to this (e.g. in the `ls` command).
- Finally, this PR also adds a `record!` macro that helps simplify
record creation. It is used like so:
```rust
record! {
"key1" => some_value,
"key2" => Value::string("text", span),
"key3" => Value::int(optional_int.unwrap_or(0), span),
"key4" => Value::bool(config.setting, span),
}
```
Since macros hinder formatting, etc., the right hand side values should
be relatively short and sweet like the examples above.
Where possible, prefer `record!` or `.collect()` on an iterator instead
of multiple `Record::push`s, since the first two automatically set the
record capacity and do less work overall.

https://github.com/nushell/nushell/pull/9773 introduced constants to
modules and allowed to export them, but only within one level. This PR:
* allows recursive exporting of constants from all submodules
* fixes submodule imports in a list import pattern
* makes sure exported constants are actual constants
Should unblock https://github.com/nushell/nushell/pull/9678
### Example:
```nushell
module spam {
export module eggs {
export module bacon {
export const viking = 'eats'
}
}
}
use spam
print $spam.eggs.bacon.viking # prints 'eats'
use spam [eggs]
print $eggs.bacon.viking # prints 'eats'
use spam eggs bacon viking
print $viking # prints 'eats'
```
### Limitation 1:
Considering the above `spam` module, attempting to get `eggs bacon` from
`spam` module doesn't work directly:
```nushell
use spam [ eggs bacon ] # attempts to load `eggs`, then `bacon`
use spam [ "eggs bacon" ] # obviously wrong name for a constant, but doesn't work also for commands
```
Workaround (for example):
```nushell
use spam eggs
use eggs [ bacon ]
print $bacon.viking # prints 'eats'
```
I'm thinking I'll just leave it in, as you can easily work around this.
It is also a limitation of the import pattern in general, not just
constants.
### Limitation 2:
`overlay use` successfully imports the constants, but `overlay hide`
does not hide them, even though it seems to hide normal variables
successfully. This needs more investigation.

# Description
I've been investigating the [issue
mentioned](https://github.com/nushell/nushell/pull/9976#issuecomment-1673290467)
in my prev pr and I've found that plugin.nu file that is used to cache
plugins signatures gets overwritten on every nushell startup and that
may actually mess up with the file content if 2 or more instances of
nushell will run simultaneously.
To reproduce:
1. register at least 2 plugins in your local nushell
2. remember how many entries you have in plugin.nu with `open
$nu.plugin-path | find nu_plugin`
3. run
- either `cargo test` inside nushell repo
- or run smth like this `1..100 | par-each {|it| $"(random integer
1..100)ms" | into duration | sleep $in; nu -c "$nu.plugin-path"}` to
simulate parallel access. This approach is not so reliable to reproduce
as running test but still a good point that it may effect users actually
4. validate that your `plugin.nu` file was stripped

# Solution
In this pr I've refactored the code of handling the `register` command
to minimize code duplications and make sure that overwrite of
`plugin.nu` file is happen only when user calls the command and not on
nu startup
Another option would be to use temp `plugin.nu` when running tests, but
as the issue actually can affect users I've decided to prevent
unnecessary writing at all. Although having isolated `plugin.nu` still
worth of doing
# User-Facing Changes
<!-- List of all changes that impact the user experience here. This
helps us keep track of breaking changes. -->
It changes the behaviour actually as the call `register <plugin>
<signature>` now doesn't updates `plugin.nu` and just reads signatures
to the memory. But as I understand that kind of call with explicit
signature is meant to use only by nushell itself in the `plugin.nu` file
only. I've asked about it in
[discord](https://discordapp.com/channels/601130461678272522/615962413203718156/1140013448915325018)

Actually, I think the way plugins are stored might be reworked to
prevent or mitigate possible issues further:
- problem with writing to file may still arise if we try to register in
parallel as several instances will write to the same file so the lock
for the file might be required
- using additional parameters to command like `register` to implement
some internal logic could be misleading to the users
- `register` call actually affects global state of nushell that sounds a
little bit inconsistent with immutability and isolation of other parts
of the nu. See issues
[1](https://github.com/nushell/nushell/issues/8581),
[2](https://github.com/nushell/nushell/issues/8960)

This PR should close#8036, #9028 (in the negative) and #9118.
Fix for #9118 is a bit pedantic. As reported, the issue is:
```
> 2023-05-07T04:08:45+12:00 - 2019-05-10T09:59:12+12:00
3yr 12month 2day 18hr 9min 33sec
```
with this PR, you now get:
```
> 2023-05-07T04:08:45+12:00 - 2019-05-10T09:59:12+12:00
208wk 1day 18hr 9min 33sec
```
Which is strictly correct, but could still fairly be called "weird date
arithmetic".
# Description
* [x] Abide by constraint that Value::Duration remains a number of
nanoseconds with no additional fields.
* [x] `to_string()` only displays weeks .. nanoseconds. Duration doesn't
have base date to compute months or years from.
* [x] `duration | into record` likewise only has fields for weeks ..
nanoseconds.
* [x] `string | into duration` now accepts compound form of duration
to_string() (e.g '2day 3hr`, not just '2day')
* [x] `duration | into string` now works (and produces the same
representation as to_string(), which may be compound).
# User-Facing Changes
## duration -> string -> duration
Now you can "round trip" an arbitrary duration value: convert it to a
string that may include multiple time units (a "compound" value), then
convert that string back into a duration. This required changes to
`string | into duration` and the addition of `duration | into string'.
```
> 2day + 3hr
2day 3hr # the "to_string()" representation (in this case, a compound value)
> 2day + 3hr | into string
2day 3hr # string value
> 2day + 3hr | into string | into duration
2day 3hr # round-trip duration -> string -> duration
```
Note that `to nuon` and `from nuon` already round-tripped durations, but
use a different string representation.
## potentially breaking changes
* string rendering of a duration no longer has 'yr' or 'month' phrases.
* record from `duration | into record` no longer has 'year' or 'month'
fields.
The excess duration is all lumped into the `week` field, which is the
largest time unit you can
convert to without knowing the datetime from which the duration was
calculated.
Scripts that depended on month or year time units on output will need to
be changed.
### Examples
```
> 365day
52wk 1day
## Used to be:
## 1yr
> 365day | into record
╭──────┬────╮
│ week │ 52 │
│ day │ 1 │
│ sign │ + │
╰──────┴────╯
## used to be:
##╭──────┬───╮
##│ year │ 1 │
##│ sign │ + │
##╰──────┴───╯
> (365day + 4wk + 5day + 6hr + 7min + 8sec + 9ms + 10us + 11ns)
56wk 6day 6hr 7min 8sec 9ms 10µs 11ns
## used to be:
## 1yr 1month 3day 6hr 7min 8sec 9ms 10µs 11ns
## which looks reasonable, but was actually only correct in 75% of the years and 25% of the months in the last 4 years.
> (365day + 4wk + 5day + 6hr + 7min + 8sec + 9ms + 10us + 11ns) | into record
╭─────────────┬────╮
│ week │ 56 │
│ day │ 6 │
│ hour │ 6 │
│ minute │ 7 │
│ second │ 8 │
│ millisecond │ 9 │
│ microsecond │ 10 │
│ nanosecond │ 11 │
│ sign │ + │
╰─────────────┴────╯
```
Strictly speaking, these changes could break an existing user script.
Losing years and months as time units is arguably a regression in
behavior.
Also, the corrected duration calculation could break an existing script
that was calibrated using the old algorithm.

Relative: #8248
After this pr, user can define const variable inside a module.
And user can export const variables, the following screenshot shows how
it works (it follows
https://github.com/nushell/nushell/issues/8248#issuecomment-1637442612):
## About the change
1. To make module support const, we need to change `parse_module_block`
to support `const` keyword.
2. To suport export `const`, we need to make module tracking variables,
so we add `variables` attribute to `Module`
3. During eval, the const variable may not exists in `stack`, because we
don't eval `const` when we define a module, so we need to find variables
which are already registered in `engine_state`
## One more thing to note about the const value.
Consider the following code
```
module foo { const b = 3; export def bar [] { $b } }
use foo bar
const b = 4;
bar
```
The result will be 3 (which is defined in module) rather than 4. I think
it's expected behavior.
It's something like [dynamic
binding](https://www.gnu.org/software/emacs/manual/html_node/elisp/Dynamic-Binding-Tips.html)
vs [lexical
binding](https://www.gnu.org/software/emacs/manual/html_node/elisp/Lexical-Binding.html)
in lisp like language, and lexical binding should be right behavior
which generates more predicable result, and it doesn't introduce really
subtle bugs in nushell code.
What if user want dynamic-binding?(For example: the example code returns
`4`)
There is no way to do this, user should consider passing the value as
argument to custom command rather than const.
## TODO
- [X] adding tests for the feature.
- [X] support export const out of module to use.

# Description
Previously, we had a bug slip in about implied collection caused by
`$in`, that this output type would be of type `string`.
The type system fixes in 0.83 now make this more visible and cause
issues. This PR changes the output of the implied collection to `any`.
At some point in the future, we may want to carry the type through where
we can, but `any` should unblock using `$in`.

# Description
This PR ensures functions exist to extract and create each and every
`Value` case. It also renames `Value::boolean` to `Value::bool` to match
`Value::test_bool`, `Value::as_bool`, and `Value::Bool`. Similarly,
`Value::as_integer` was renamed to `Value::as_int` to be consistent with
`Value::int`, `Value::test_int`, and `Value::Int`. These two renames can
be undone if necessary.
# User-Facing Changes
No user facing changes, but two public functions were renamed which may
affect downstream dependents.
# Description
This fixes the variable capture logic for closures in two cases:
* Closures inside of closures did not properly register the closures (or
lack thereof) in the outer closure
* Closures which called their inner closures before definition did not
properly calculate the closures of the outer closure
Example of the first case:
```
do { let b = 3; def c [] { $b }; c }
```
Example of the second case (notice `c` is called before it is defined):
```
do { let b = 3; c; def c [] { $b }; c }
```
# User-Facing Changes
This should strictly allow closures to work more correctly.

# Description
Fixes: #8517Fixes: #9246Fixes: #9709
Relative: #9723
## About the change
Before the pr, nushell only parse redirection target as a string(through
`parse_string` call).
In the pr, I'm trying to make the value more generic(using `parse_value`
with `SyntaxShape::Any`)
And during eval stage, we guard it to only eval `String`,
`StringInterpolation`, `FullCellPath`, `FilePath`, so other type of
redirection target like `1ms` won't be permitted.
# User-Facing Changes
After the pr: redirection support something like the following:
1. `let a = "x"; cat toolkit.nu o> $a`
2. `let a = "x"; cat toolkit.nu o> $"($a).txt"`
3. `cat toolkit.nu out> ("~/a.txt" | path expand)`
## description
this pr adds [match
guards](https://doc.rust-lang.org/reference/expressions/match-expr.html#match-guards)
to match patterns
```nushell
match $x {
_ if $x starts-with 'nu' => {},
$x => {}
}
```
these work pretty much like rust's match guards, with few limitations:
1. multiple matches using the `|` are not (yet?) supported
```nushell
match $num {
0 | _ if (is-odd $num) => {},
_ => {}
}
```
2. blocks cannot be used as guards, (yet?)
```nushell
match $num {
$x if { $x ** $x == inf } => {},
_ => {}
}
```
## checklist
- [x] syntax
- [x] syntax highlighting[^1]
- [x] semantics

[^1]: defered for another pr
# Description
This adds input/output types to custom commands. These are input/output
pairs that related an input type to an output type.
For example (a single int-to-int input/output pair):
```
def foo []: int -> int { ... }
```
You can also have multiple input/output pairs:
```
def bar []: [int -> string, string -> list<string>] { ... }
```
These types are checked during definition time in the parser. If the
block does not match the type, the user will get a parser error.
This `:` to begin the input/output signatures should immediately follow
the argument signature as shown above.
The PR also improves type parsing by re-using the shape parser. The
shape parser is now the canonical way to parse types/shapes in user
code.
This PR also splits `extern` into `extern`/`extern-wrapped` because of
the parser limitation that a multi-span argument (which Signature now
is) can't precede an optional argument. `extern-wrapped` now takes the
required block that was previously optional.
# User-Facing Changes
The change to `extern` to split into `extern` and `extern-wrapped` is a
breaking change.

This PR now contains updates to commands that had wrong input/output
signatures. It doesn't add examples for these new signatures, but that
can be follow-up work.

# Description
This PR removes the compile-time overload system. Unfortunately, this
system never worked correctly because in a gradual type system where
types can be `Any`, you don't have enough information to correctly
resolve function calls with overloads. These resolutions must be done at
runtime, if they're supported.
That said, there's a bit of work that needs to go into resolving
input/output types (here overloads do not execute separate commands, but
the same command and each overload explains how each output type
corresponds to input types).
This PR also removes the type scope, which would give incorrect answers
in cases where multiple subexpressions were used in a pipeline.
# User-Facing Changes
Finishes removing compile-time overloads. These were only used in a few
places in the code base, but it's possible it may impact user code. I'll
mark this as breaking change so we can review.

# Description
follow up to #8529 and #8914
this works very similarly to record annotations, only difference being
that
```sh
table<name: string>
^^^^ ^^^^^^
| |
| represents the type of the items in that column
|
represents the column name
```
more info on the syntax can be found
[here](https://github.com/nushell/nushell/pull/8914#issue-1672113520)
# User-Facing Changes
**[BREAKING CHANGE]**
this change adds a field to `SyntaxShape::Table` so any plugins that
used it will have to update and include the field. though if you are
unsure of the type the table expects, `SyntaxShape::Table(vec![])` will
suffice
# Description
the current subtyping rule needs you to define the record entries in the
same order as declared in the annotation. this pr improves that
now
```nushell
{ name: 'Him', age: 12 }
# ,
{ age: 100, name: 'It' }
# and
{ name: 'Red', age: 69, height: "5-8" }
# will all match
record<name: string, age: int>
# previously only the first one would match
```
however, something like
```nushell
{ name: 'Her' } # will not
# and
{ name: 'Car', wheels: 5 }
```
EDIT: applied JT's suggestion
# Description
This changes the default behaviour of `let` to be able to take a
pipeline as its initial value.
For example:
```
> let x = "hello world" | str length
```
This is a change from the existing behaviour, where the right hand side
is assumed to be an expression. Pipelines are more general, and can be
more powerful.
My google foo is failing me, but this also fixes this issue:
```
let x = foo
```
Currently, this reads `foo` as a bareword that gets converted to a
string rather than running the `foo` command. In practice, this is
really annoying and is a really hard to spot bug in a script.
# User-Facing Changes
BREAKING CHANGE BREAKING CHANGE
`let` gains the power to be assigned via a pipeline. However, this
changes the behaviour of `let x = foo` from assigning the string "foo"
to `$x` to being "run the command `foo` and give the result to `$x`"

# Description
This PR disallows blocks as first-class values by removing the ability
to create them using the `block` syntax shape or type. Now, the parser
will only ever be able to create closures as first-class values.
This means that `{ 3 }` will always be treated as a closure, unless used
in the specifically supported use case of the literal being given as an
arg to `for`, `if` and other built-in block users.
Note: first-class value here means "value that can be passed into
commands and held in variables"
# User-Facing Changes
This may break some user scripts as `: block` is no longer allows as a
type annotation. Note: these cases were not actually supported before,
as, for example, passing a block that accessed a variable would have
errored when the block was later evaluated.
Closures do not have the restriction mentioned above and are the much
safer value to pass as first-class, so now they are the only block-like
value to be allowed to be passed.

# Description
For years, Nushell has used `let-env` to set a single environment
variable. As our work on scoping continued, we refined what it meant for
a variable to be in scope using `let` but never updated how `let-env`
would work. Instead, `let-env` confusingly created mutations to the
command's copy of `$env`.
So, to help fix the mental model and point people to the right way of
thinking about what changing the environment means, this PR removes
`let-env` to encourage people to think of it as updating the command's
environment variable via mutation.
Before:
```
let-env FOO = "BAR"
```
Now:
```
$env.FOO = "BAR"
```
It's also a good reminder that the environment owned by the command is
in the `$env` variable rather than global like it is in other shells.
# User-Facing Changes
BREAKING CHANGE BREAKING CHANGE
This completely removes `let-env FOO = "BAR"` so that we can focus on
`$env.FOO = "BAR"`.

# 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
This PR improves the error message if an environment variable (that's
visible before the parser begins) is used in the form of `$PATH` instead
of `$env.PATH`.
Before:
```
Error: nu::parser::variable_not_found
× Variable not found.
╭─[entry #31:1:1]
1 │ echo $PATH
· ──┬──
· ╰── variable not found.
╰────
```
After:
```
Error: nu::parser::env_var_not_var
× Use $env.PATH instead of $PATH.
╭─[entry #1:1:1]
1 │ echo $PATH
· ──┬──
· ╰── use $env.PATH instead of $PATH

This PR reverts https://github.com/nushell/nushell/pull/9391
We try not to revert PRs like this, though after discussion with the
Nushell team, we decided to revert this one.
The main reason is that Nushell, as a codebase, isn't ready for these
kinds of optimisations. It's in the part of the development cycle where
our main focus should be on improving the algorithms inside of Nushell
itself. Once we have matured our algorithms, then we can look for
opportunities to switch out technologies we're using for alternate
forms.
Much of Nushell still has lots of opportunities for tuning the codebase,
paying down technical debt, and making the codebase generally cleaner
and more robust. This should be the focus. Performance improvements
should flow out of that work.
Said another, optimisation that isn't part of tuning the codebase is
premature at this stage. We need to focus on doing the hard work of
making the engine, parser, etc better.

# Description
- fixes: #5517
- fixes: #9250
For the following commands:
```
ls
# | le
| length
```
I found that it generates a bad lite parsing result:
```
LiteBlock {
block: [
LitePipeline {
commands: [
Command(None, LiteCommand { comments: [], parts: [Span { start: 138600, end: 138602 }] })
]
},
LitePipeline {
commands: [
Command(Some(Span { start: 138610, end: 138611 }),
LiteCommand { comments: [Span { start: 138603, end: 138609 }], parts: [Span { start: 138612, end: 138618 }] })
]
}
]
}
```
Which should contains only one `LitePipeline`, and the second
`LitePipeline` is generated because of `Eol` lex token:
```
[
Token { contents: Item, span: Span { start: 138600, end: 138602 } },
Token { contents: Eol, span: Span { start: 138602, end: 138603 } }, // it generates the second LitePipeline
Token { contents: Comment, span: Span { start: 138603, end: 138609 } },
Token { contents: Pipe, span: Span { start: 138610, end: 138611 } },
Token { contents: Item, span: Span { start: 138612, end: 138618 } }
]
```
To fix the issue, I remove the `Eol` token when we meet `Comment` right
after `Eol`, then it will generate a good LiteBlock, and everything will
work fine.
### After the fix:
Token:
```
[
Token { contents: Item, span: Span { start: 138618, end: 138620 } },
Token { contents: Comment, span: Span { start: 138622, end: 138628 } },
Token { contents: Pipe, span: Span { start: 138629, end: 138630 } },
Token { contents: Item, span: Span { start: 138631, end: 138637 } }
]
```
LiteBlock:
```
LiteBlock {
block: [
LitePipeline {
commands: [
Command(
None,
LiteCommand {
comments: [Span { start: 138622, end: 138628 }],
parts: [Span { start: 138618, end: 138620 }]
}
),
Command(
Some(Span { start: 138629, end: 138630 }),
LiteCommand { comments: [], parts: [Span { start: 138631, end: 138637 }] })] }] }
```

# Description
I'm not sure if this is a good idea or now but I did it to fix#9418. It
allows you to pass empty string arguments like this.
file named foo.nu
```
def main [--arg: string = dog] {
if ($arg | is-empty) {
echo "empty string"
} else {
echo $arg
}
}
```
`> nu foo.nu --arg ""`
or
`> nu foo.nu --arg=""`
this gives an error
`> nu foo.nu --arg`
this returns the default argument
`> nu foo.nu`
closes#9418

closes#9111
# Description
this pr improves parsing of values with units (`filesizes`, `durations`
and any other **future values**) by:
1. allowing underscores in the value part
```nu
> 42kb # okay
> 42_sec # okay
> 1_000_000mib # okay
> 69k_b # not okay, underscores not allowed in the unit
```
2. improving error messages involving these values
```nu
> sleep 40-sec
# before
Error: nu::parser::parse_mismatch
× Parse mismatch during operation.
╭─[entry #42:1:1]
1 │ sleep 40-sec
· ──┬──
· ╰── expected duration with valid units
╰────
# now
Error:
× duration value must be a number
╭─[entry #41:1:1]
1 │ sleep 40-sec
· ─┬─
· ╰── not a number
╰────
```
3. unifying parsing of these values. now all of these use one function
# User-Facing Changes
filesizes and durations can now have underscores for readability
# Description
Fixes: #8565
Here is another pr #7240 tried to address the issue, but it works in a
wrong way.
After this change `o+e>` won't redirect all stdout message then stderr
message and it works more like how bash does.
# User-Facing Changes
For the given python code:
```python
# test.py
import sys
print('aa'*300, flush=True)
print('bb'*999999, file=sys.stderr, flush=True)
print('cc'*300, flush=True)
```
Running `python test.py out+err> a.txt` shoudn't hang nushell, and
`a.txt` keeps output in the same order
## About the change
The core idea is that when doing lite-parsing, introduce a new variant
`LiteElement::SameTargetRedirection` if we meet `out+err>` redirection
token(which is generated by lex function),
During converting from lite block to block,
LiteElement::SameTargetRedirection will be converted to
PipelineElement::SameTargetRedirection.
Then in the block eval process, if we get
PipelineElement::SameTargetRedirection, we'll invoke `run-external` with
`--redirect-combine` flag, then pipe the result into save command
## What happened internally?
Take the following command as example:
`^ls o+e> log.txt`
lex parsing result(`Tokens`) are not changed, but `LiteBlock` and
`Block` is changed after this pr.
### LiteBlock before
```rust
LiteBlock {
block: [
LitePipeline { commands: [
Command(None, LiteCommand { comments: [], parts: [Span { start: 39041, end: 39044 }] }),
// actually the span of first Redirection is wrong too..
Redirection(Span { start: 39058, end: 39062 }, StdoutAndStderr, LiteCommand { comments: [], parts: [Span { start: 39050, end: 39057 }] }),
]
}]
}
```
### LiteBlock after
```rust
LiteBlock {
block: [
LitePipeline {
commands: [
SameTargetRedirection {
cmd: (None, LiteCommand { comments: [], parts: [Span { start: 147945, end: 147948}]}),
redirection: (Span { start: 147949, end: 147957 }, LiteCommand { comments: [], parts: [Span { start: 147958, end: 147965 }]})
}
]
}
]
}
```
### Block before
```rust
Pipeline {
elements: [
Expression(None, Expression {
expr: ExternalCall(Expression { expr: String("ls"), span: Span { start: 39042, end: 39044 }, ty: String, custom_completion: None }, [], false),
span: Span { start: 39041, end: 39044 },
ty: Any, custom_completion: None
}),
Redirection(Span { start: 39058, end: 39062 }, StdoutAndStderr, Expression { expr: String("out.txt"), span: Span { start: 39050, end: 39057 }, ty: String, custom_completion: None })] }
```
### Block after
```rust
Pipeline {
elements: [
SameTargetRedirection {
cmd: (None, Expression {
expr: ExternalCall(Expression { expr: String("ls"), span: Span { start: 147946, end: 147948 }, ty: String, custom_completion: None}, [], false),
span: Span { start: 147945, end: 147948},
ty: Any, custom_completion: None
}),
redirection: (Span { start: 147949, end: 147957}, Expression {expr: String("log.txt"), span: Span { start: 147958, end: 147965 },ty: String,custom_completion: None}

# 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
Extends the `extern` syntax to allow commands that accept raw arguments.
This is mainly added to allow wrapper type scripts for external
commands.
This is an example on how this can be used:
```nushell
extern foo [...rest] {
print ($rest | str join ',' )
}
foo --bar baz -- -q -u -x
# => --bar,baz,--,-q,-u,-x
```
(It's only possible to accept a single ...varargs argument in the
signature)
# User-Facing Changes
No breaking changes, just extra possibilities.
# Tests + Formatting
Added a test for this new behaviour and ran the toolkit pr checker
# After Submitting
This is advanced functionality but it should be documented, I will open
a new PR on the book for that

# 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
follow up to #8529
cleaned up version of #8892
- the original syntax is okay
```nu
def okay [rec: record] {}
```
- you can now add type annotations for fields if you know
them before hand
```nu
def okay [rec: record<name: string>] {}
```
- you can specify multiple fields
```nu
def okay [person: record<name: string age: int>] {}
# an optional comma is allowed
def okay [person: record<name: string, age: int>] {}
```
- if annotations are specified, any use of the command will be type
checked against the specified type
```nu
def unwrap [result: record<ok: bool, value: any>] {}
unwrap {ok: 2, value: "value"}
# errors with
Error: nu::parser::type_mismatch
× Type mismatch.
╭─[entry #4:1:1]
1 │ unwrap {ok: 2, value: "value"}
· ───────┬─────
· ╰── expected record<ok: bool, value: any>, found record<ok: int, value: string>
╰────
```
> here the error is in the `ok` field, since `any` is coerced into any
type
> as a result `unwrap {ok: true, value: "value"}` is okay
- the key must be a string, either quoted or unquoted
```nu
def err [rec: record<{}: list>] {}
# errors with
Error:
× `record` type annotations key not string
╭─[entry #7:1:1]
1 │ def unwrap [result: record<{}: bool, value: any>] {}
· ─┬
· ╰── must be a string
╰────
```
- a key doesn't have to have a type in which case it is assumed to be
`any`
```nu
def okay [person: record<name age>] {}
def okay [person: record<name: string age>] {}
```
- however, if you put a colon, you have to specify a type
```nu
def err [person: record<name: >] {}
# errors with
Error: nu::parser::parse_mismatch
× Parse mismatch during operation.
╭─[entry #12:1:1]
1 │ def unwrap [res: record<name: >] { $res }
· ┬
· ╰── expected type after colon
╰────
```
# User-Facing Changes
**[BREAKING CHANGES]**
- this change adds a field to `SyntaxShape::Record` so any plugins that
used it will have to update and include the field. though if you are
unsure of the type the record expects, `SyntaxShape::Record(vec![])`
will suffice
