# Description
This PR adds a couple more options for dealing with try/catch errors. It
adds a `json` version of the error and a `rendered` version of the
error. It also respects the error_style configuration point.

# Description
Fixes#13991. This was done by more clearly separating the case when a
pipeline is drained vs when it is being written (to a file).
I also added an `OutDest::Print` case which might not be strictly
necessary, but is a helpful addition.
# User-Facing Changes
Bug fix.
# Tests + Formatting
Added a test.
# After Submitting
There are still a few redirection bugs that I found, but they require
larger code changes, so I'll leave them until after the release.
# Description
Partialy addresses #13868. `try` does not catch non-zero exit code
errors from the last command in a pipeline if the result is assigned to
a variable using `let` (or `mut`).
This was fixed by adding a new `OutDest::Value` case. This is used when
the pipeline is in a "value" position. I.e., it will be collected into a
value. This ended up replacing most of the usages of `OutDest::Capture`.
So, this PR also renames `OutDest::Capture` to `OutDest::PipeSeparate`
to better fit the few remaining use cases for it.
# User-Facing Changes
Bug fix.
# Tests + Formatting
Added two tests.
# Description
Fixes a bug in the IR for `try` to match that of the regular evaluator
(continuing from #13515):
```nushell
# without IR:
try { ^false } catch { 'caught' } # == 'caught'
# with IR:
try { ^false } catch { 'caught' } # error, non-zero exit code
```
In this PR, both now evaluate to `caught`. For the implementation, I had
to add another instruction, and feel free to suggest better
alternatives. In the future, it might be possible to get rid of this
extra instruction.
# User-Facing Changes
Bug fix, `try { ^false } catch { 'caught' }` now works in IR.
# Description
This PR makes it so that non-zero exit codes and termination by signal
are treated as a normal `ShellError`. Currently, these are silent
errors. That is, if an external command fails, then it's code block is
aborted, but the parent block can sometimes continue execution. E.g.,
see #8569 and this example:
```nushell
[1 2] | each { ^false }
```
Before this would give:
```
╭───┬──╮
│ 0 │ │
│ 1 │ │
╰───┴──╯
```
Now, this shows an error:
```
Error: nu:🐚:eval_block_with_input
× Eval block failed with pipeline input
╭─[entry #1:1:2]
1 │ [1 2] | each { ^false }
· ┬
· ╰── source value
╰────
Error: nu:🐚:non_zero_exit_code
× External command had a non-zero exit code
╭─[entry #1:1:17]
1 │ [1 2] | each { ^false }
· ──┬──
· ╰── exited with code 1
╰────
```
This PR fixes#12874, fixes#5960, fixes#10856, and fixes#5347. This
PR also partially addresses #10633 and #10624 (only the last command of
a pipeline is currently checked). It looks like #8569 is already fixed,
but this PR will make sure it is definitely fixed (fixes#8569).
# User-Facing Changes
- Non-zero exit codes and termination by signal now cause an error to be
thrown.
- The error record value passed to a `catch` block may now have an
`exit_code` column containing the integer exit code if the error was due
to an external command.
- Adds new config values, `display_errors.exit_code` and
`display_errors.termination_signal`, which determine whether an error
message should be printed in the respective error cases. For
non-interactive sessions, these are set to `true`, and for interactive
sessions `display_errors.exit_code` is false (via the default config).
# Tests
Added a few tests.
# After Submitting
- Update docs and book.
- Future work:
- Error if other external commands besides the last in a pipeline exit
with a non-zero exit code. Then, deprecate `do -c` since this will be
the default behavior everywhere.
- Add a better mechanism for exit codes and deprecate
`$env.LAST_EXIT_CODE` (it's buggy).
# Description
Bandaid fix for #12643, where it is not possible to get the exit code of
a failed external command while also having the external command inherit
nushell's stdout and stderr. This changes `try` so that the exit code of
external command is available in the `catch` block via the usual
`$env.LAST_EXIT_CODE`.
# Tests + Formatting
Added one test.
# After Submitting
Rework I/O redirection and possibly exit codes.
# 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.

# Description
The working directory doesn't have to be set for those tests (or would
be the default anyways). When appropriate also remove calls to the
`pipeline()` function. In most places kept the diff minimal and only
removed the superfluous part to not pollute the blame view. With simpler
tests also simplified things to make them more readable overall (this
included removal of the raw string literal).
Work for #8670
# Description
Fixes: #8402#8391
The cause of these issue if when we want to evaluate a expression with
`Value::Error`, nushell show error immediately. To fix the issue, we can
wrap the `Value::Error` into a `Value::Record`. So user can see the
message he want.
# User-Facing Changes
Before
```
❯ try { 1 / 0 } catch {|e| echo $"error is ($e)"}
Error: nu:🐚:division_by_zero
× Division by zero.
╭─[entry #2:1:1]
1 │ try { 1 / 0 } catch {|e| echo $"error is ($e)"}
· ┬
· ╰── division by zero
╰────
```
After
```
❯ try { 1 / 0 } catch {|e| echo $"error is ($e)"}
error is {msg: Division by zero., debug: DivisionByZero { span: Span { start: 43104, end: 43105 } }, raw: DivisionByZero { sp
an: Span { start: 43104, end: 43105 } }}
```
As we can see, error becomes a record with `msg`, `debug`, `raw`
columns.
1. msg column is a user friendly message.
2. debug column is more about `Value::Error` information as a string.
3. raw column is a `Value::Error` itself, if user want to re-raise the
error, just use `$e | get raw`

A small follow-up to #7221. This changes the `catch` block from a block
to a closure, so that it can access the error returned from the `try`
block. This helps with a common scenario: "the `try` block failed, and I
want to log why it failed."
### Example
![image](https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/26268125/203841966-f1f8f102-fd73-41e6-83bc-bf69ed436fa8.png)
### Future Work
Nu's closure syntax is a little awkward here; it might be nicer to allow
something like `catch err { print $err }`. We discussed this on Discord
and it will require special parser code similar to what's already done
for `for`.
I'm not feeling confident enough in my parser knowledge to make that
change; I will spend some more time looking at the `for` code but I
doubt I will be able to implement anything in the next few days.
Volunteers welcome.
# Description
This adds `try` (with an optional `catch` piece). Much like other
languages, `try` will try to run a block. If the block fails to run
successfully, the optional `catch` block will run if it is available.
# User-Facing Changes
This adds the `try` command.
