# Description
List values and list streams have the same type (`list<>`). Rather,
streaming is a separate property of the pipeline/command output. This PR
removes the unnecessary `ListStream` type.
# User-Facing Changes
Should be none, except `random dice` now has a more specific output
type.
# Description
The "append" operator currently serves as both the append operator and
the concatenation operator. This dual role creates ambiguity when
operating on nested lists.
```nu
[1 2] ++ 3 # appends a value to a list [1 2 3]
[1 2] ++ [3 4] # concatenates two lists [1 2 3 4]
[[1 2] [3 4]] ++ [5 6]
# does this give [[1 2] [3 4] [5 6]]
# or [[1 2] [3 4] 5 6]
```
Another problem is that `++=` can change the type of a variable:
```nu
mut str = 'hello '
$str ++= ['world']
($str | describe) == list<string>
```
Note that appending is only relevant for lists, but concatenation is
relevant for lists, strings, and binary values. Additionally, appending
can be expressed in terms of concatenation (see example below). So, this
PR changes the `++` operator to only perform concatenation.
# User-Facing Changes
Using the `++` operator with a list and a non-list value will now be a
compile time or runtime error.
```nu
mut list = []
$list ++= 1 # error
```
Instead, concatenate a list with one element:
```nu
$list ++= [1]
```
Or use `append`:
```nu
$list = $list | append 1
```

Update book and docs.

# User-Facing Changes
- `expected <type>` errors are now propagated from
`Closure | Block | Expression` instead of falling back to
"expected one of..." for the block:
Before:
```nushell
def foo [bar: bool] {}
if true {} else { foo 1 }
────┬────
╰── expected one of a list of accepted shapes: [Block, Expression]
```
After:
```nushell
if true {} else { foo 1 }
┬
╰── expected bool
```
# User-Facing Changes
The parser now errors on more invalid command signatures:
```nushell
# expected parameter or flag
def foo [ bar: int: ] {}
# expected type
def foo [ bar: = ] {}
def foo [ bar: ] {}
# expected default value
def foo [ bar = ] {}
```
# Description
Fixes#14294 - Turned out to be a whole lot easier than I expected, but
please double-check me on this, since it's an area I haven't been in
before.

# Description
Dividing two ints can currently return either an int or a float. Not
having a single return type for an operation between two types seems
problematic. Additionally, the type signature for division says that
dividing two ints returns only an int which does not match the current
implementation (it can also return a float). This PR changes division
between almost all types to return a float (except for `filesize /
number` or `duration / number`, since there are no float representations
for these types).
Currently, floor division between certain types is not implemented even
though the type signature allows it. Also, the current implementation of
floor division uses a combination of clamping and flooring rather than
simply performing floor division which this PR fixes. Additionally, the
signature was changed so that `int // float`, `float // int`, and `float
// float` now return float instead of int. This matches the automatic
float promotion in the rest of the operators (as well as how Python does
floor division which I think is the original inspiration).
Since regular division has always returned fractional values (and now
returns a float to reflect that), `mod` is now defined in terms of floor
division. That is, `D // d = q`, `D mod d = r`, and `D = d * q + r `.
This is just like the `%` operator in Python, which is also based off
floor division (at least for ints and floats). Additionally,
implementations missing from `mod`'s current type signature have been
added (`duration mod int` and `duration mod float`).
This PR also overhauls the overflow checking and errors for div, mod,
and floor div. If an operation overflows, it will now cause an error.
# User-Facing Changes
- Div now returns a float in most cases.
- Floor division now actually does floor division.
- Floor division now does automatic float promotion, returning a float
in more instances.
- Floor division now actually allows division with filesize and
durations as its type signature claimed.
- Mod is now defined and implemented in terms of floor division rather
than truncating division.
- Mod now actually allows filesize and durations as its type signature
claimed.
- Div, mod, and floor div now all have proper overflow checks.
## Examples
When the divisor and the dividend have the same sign, the quotient and
remainder will be the same as before. (Except that this PR will give
more accurate results, since it does not do an intermediate float
conversion). If the signs of the divisor and dividend are different,
then the results will be different, or rather actually correct.
Before:
```nu
let q = 8 // -3 # -3
let r = 8 mod -3 # 2
8 == $q * -3 + $r # false
```
After:
```nu
let q = 8 // -3 # -3
let r = 8 mod -3 # -1
8 == $q * -3 + $r # true
```
Before:
```nu
let q = -8 // 3 # -3
let r = -8 mod 3 # -2
-8 == $q * 3 + $r # false
```
After:
```nu
let q = -8 // 3 # -3
let r = -8 mod 3 # 1
-8 == $q * 3 + $r # true
```
# Tests + Formatting
Added a few tests.

# Description
Fixes: #14202
After looking into the issue, I think #13910 it's not good to cut the
span if it's in external argument.
This pr is somehow revert the change, and fix
https://github.com/nushell/nushell/issues/13431 in another way.
It introduce a new state named `State::BackTickQuote`, so if an external
arg include backtick quote, it enters the state, so backtick quote won't
be the body of a string.
# User-Facing Changes
### Before
```nushell
> ^echo `(echo aa)`
aa
> ^echo `"aa"` # maybe it's not right to remove the inner quote.
aa
```
### After
```nushell

(echo aa)
> ^echo `"aa"` # inner quote is keeped if there are backtick quote outside.
"aa"
```
# Tests + Formatting
Added 3 tests.

This PR fixes the quoting and escaping of column names in `to nuon`.
Before the PR, column names with quotes inside them would get quoted,
but not escaped:
```nushell
> { 'a"b': 2 } | to nuon
{ "a"b": 2 }
> { 'a"b': 2 } | to nuon | from nuon
Error: × error when loading nuon text

╰────
Error: × error when parsing
╭────
1 │ [["a"b"]; [2], [3]]
· ┬
· ╰── Unexpected end of code.
╰────
```
After this PR, the quote is escaped properly:
```nushell
> { 'a"b': 2 } | to nuon
{ "a\"b": 2 }
> { 'a"b': 2 } | to nuon | from nuon
╭─────┬───╮
│ a"b │ 2 │
╰─────┴───╯
> [['a"b']; [2] [3]] | to nuon
[["a\"b"]; [2], [3]]
> [['a"b']; [2] [3]] | to nuon | from nuon
╭─────╮
│ a"b │
├─────┤
│ 2 │
│ 3 │
╰─────╯
```
The cause of the issue was that `to nuon` simply wrapped column names in
`'"'` instead of calling `escape_quote_string`.
As part of this change, I also moved the functions related to quoting
(`needs_quoting` and `escape_quote_string`) into `nu-utils`, since
previously they were defined in very ad-hoc places (and, in the case of
`escape_quote_string`, it was defined multiple times with the same
body!).

fixes#13835
The `concat` function from `span.rs` assumes that two consecutive span
intervals must overlap. But when parsing `let` and `mut` expressions, we
call `parts_including_redirection` which chains two slices of span and
leads to the above condition not holding. So my solution here is to sort
them after chaining.

# Description
Fixes: #13431Fixes: #13578
The issue happened because nushell thinks external program name and
external arg with totally same rule. But actually they are a little bit
different.
When parsing external program name, backtick is a thing and it should be
keeped.
But when parsing external args, backtick is just a mark that it's a
**bareword which may contain space**. So in this context, it's already
useless.

# Description
In this PR I replaced most of the raw usize IDs with
[newtypes](https://doc.rust-lang.org/rust-by-example/generics/new_types.html).
Some other IDs already started using new types and in this PR I did not
want to touch them. To make the implementation less repetitive, I made
use of a generic `Id<T>` with marker structs. If this lands I would try
to move make other IDs also in this pattern.
Also at some places I needed to use `cast`, I'm not sure if the type was
incorrect and therefore casting not needed or if actually different ID
types intermingle sometimes.
# User-Facing Changes
Probably few, if you got a `DeclId` via a function and placed it later
again it will still work.
# Description
Old code was comparing remaining positional arguments with total number
of arguments, where it should've compared remaining positional with
with remaining arguments of any kind. This means that if a function was
given too few arguments, `calculate_end_span` would believe that it
actually had too many arguments, since after parsing the first few
arguments, the number of remaining arguments needed were fewer than the
*total* number of arguments, of which we had used several.

It also improves the error handling on missing positional arguments

the keyword to the parser for the missing positional, we give an
explicit error about a missing positional argument. I would like better
descriptions than "missing var_name" though, but I'm not sure if that's
available without

# Tests + Formatting
Added some tests to cover the behavior
# Description
`cargo` somewhat recently gained the capability to store `lints`
settings for the crate and workspace, that can override the defaults
from `rustc` and `clippy` lints. This means we can enforce some lints
without having to actively pass them to clippy via `cargo clippy -- -W
...`. So users just forking the repo have an easier time to follow
similar requirements like our CI.
## Limitation
An exception that remains is that those lints apply to both the primary
code base and the tests. Thus we can't include e.g. `unwrap_used`
without generating noise in the tests. Here the setup in the CI remains
the most helpful.
## Included lints
- Add `clippy::unchecked_duration_subtraction` (added by #12549)
# User-Facing Changes
Running `cargo clippy --workspace` should be closer to the CI. This has
benefits for editor configured runs of clippy and saves you from having
to use `toolkit` to be close to CI in more cases.
This PR is an attempt to fix#8257 and fix#10985 (which is
duplicate-ish)
# Description
The parser currently doesn't know how to deal with colons appearing
while lexing whitespace-terminated tokens specifying a record value.
Most notably, this means you can't use datetime literals in record value
position (and as a consequence, `| to nuon | from nuon` roundtrips can
fail), but it also means that bare words containing colons cause a
non-useful error message.
`parser::parse_record` calls `lex::lex` with the `:` colon character in
the `special_tokens` argument. This allows colons to terminate record
keys, but as a side effect, it also causes colons to terminate record
*values*. I added a new function `lex::lex_n_tokens`, which allows the
caller to drive the lexing process more explicitly, and used it in
`parser::parse_record` to let colons terminate record keys while not
giving them special treatment when appearing in record values.
This PR description previously said: *Another approach suggested in one
of the issues was to support an additional datetime literal format that
doesn't require colons. I like that that wouldn't require new
`lex::lex_internal` behaviour, but an advantage of my approach is that
it also newly allows for string record values given as bare words
containing colons. I think this eliminates another possible source of
confusion.* It was determined that this is undesirable, and in the
current state of this PR, bare word record values with colons are
rejected explicitly. The better error message is still a win.
# User-Facing Changes
In addition to the above, this PR also disables the use of "special"
(non-item) tokens in record key and value position, and the use of a
single bare `:` as a record key.
Examples of behaviour *before* this PR:
```nu
{ a: b } # Valid, same as { 'a': 'b' }
{ a: b:c } # Error: expected ':'
{ a: 2024-08-13T22:11:09 } # Error: expected ':'
{ :: 1 } # Valid, same as { ':': 1 }
{ ;: 1 } # Valid, same as { ';': 1 }
{ a: || } # Valid, same as { 'a': '||' }
```
Examples of behaviour *after* this PR:
```nu
{ a: b } # (Unchanged) Valid, same as { 'a': 'b' }
{ a: b:c } # Error: colon in bare word specifying record value
{ a: 2024-08-13T22:11:09 } # Valid, same as { a: (2024-08-13T22:11:09) }
{ :: 1 } # Error: colon in bare word specifying record key
{ ;: 1 } # Error: expected item in record key position

Currently the parser and the documentation generation use the signature
of the command, which means that it doesn't pick up on the changed name
of the `main` block, and therefore shows the name of the command as
"main" and doesn't find the subcommands. This PR changes the
aforementioned places to use the block signature to fix these issues.
This closes#13397. Incidentally it also causes input/output types to be
shown in the help, which is kinda pointless for scripts since they don't
operate on structured data but maybe not worth the effort to remove.

# Description
The meaning of the word usage is specific to describing how a command
function is *used* and not a synonym for general description. Usage can
be used to describe the SYNOPSIS or EXAMPLES sections of a man page
where the permitted argument combinations are shown or example *uses*
are given.
Let's not confuse people and call it what it is a description.
Our `help` command already creates its own *Usage* section based on the
available arguments and doesn't refer to the description with usage.
# User-Facing Changes
`help commands` and `scope commands` will now use `description` or
`extra_description`
`usage`-> `description`
`extra_usage` -> `extra_description`
Breaking change in the plugin protocol:
In the signature record communicated with the engine.
`usage`-> `description`

@devyn found that https://github.com/nushell/nushell/pull/13595, which
made ranges be type-checked at parse time, introduced a bug that caused
`../foo` to be parsed as a string rather than a command call. This was
caused by `parse_range` returning a `Some` despite there being parse
errors (`/foo` doesn't match `SyntaxShape::Number`). To go back to the
old behavior, `parse_range` now returns `None` anytime there's any parse
errors met while parsing the range.
Unfortunately, this means that something like `..$foo` will be parsed as
a string if `$foo` isn't defined and as a range if it is defined. That
was the behavior before #13595, and it should probably be fixed at some
point, but I'm just trying to quickly fix the bug.
# User-Facing Changes

# Description
As part of fixing https://github.com/nushell/nushell/issues/13586, this
PR checks the types of the operands when creating a range. Stuff like
`0..(glob .)` will be rejected at parse time. Additionally, `0..$x` will
be treated as a range and rejected if `x` is not defined, rather than
being treated as a string. A separate PR will need to be made to do
reject streams at runtime, so that stuff like `0..(open /dev/random)`
doesn't hang.
Internally, this PR adds a `ParseError::UnsupportedOperationTernary`
variant, for when you have a range like `1..2..(glob .)`.
# User-Facing Changes
Users will now receive an error if any of the operands in the ranges
they construct have types that aren't compatible with `Type::Number`.
Additionally, if a piece of code looks like a range but some parse error
is encountered while parsing it, that piece of code will still be
treated as a range and the user will be shown the parse error. This
means that a piece of code like `0..$x` will be treated as a range no
matter what. Previously, if `x` weren't the expression would've been
treated as a string `"0..$x"`. I feel like it makes the language less
complicated if we make it less context-sensitive.
Here's an example of the error you get:
```
> 0..(glob .)
Error: nu::parser::unsupported_operation
× range is not supported between int and any.
╭─[entry #1:1:1]
1 │ 0..(glob .)
· ─────┬─────┬┬
· │ │╰── any
· │ ╰── int
· ╰── doesn't support these values
╰────
```
And as an image:
Note: I made the operands themselves (above, `(glob .)`) be garbage,
rather than the `..` operator itself. This doesn't match the behavior of
the math operators (if you do `1 + "foo"`, `+` gets highlighted red).
This is because with ranges, the range operators aren't `Expression`s
themselves, so they can't be turned into garbage. I felt like here, it
makes more sense to highlight the individual operand anyway.
# Description
Fixes: #13253
The issue is because nushell use `parse_value` to parse named args, but
`parse_value` doesn't parse `OneOf` syntax shape.
# User-Facing Changes
`OneOf` in named args should works again.
# Tests + Formatting
I think it's hard to add a test, because nushell doesn't support `oneof`
syntax in custom command yet.

# Description
As per our Wednesday meeting, this adds a parse error when something
that would be parsed as an external call is present at the top level,
unless the head of the external call begins with a caret (to make it
explicit).
I tried to make the error quite descriptive about what should be done.
# User-Facing Changes
These now cause a parse error:
```nushell
$foo = bar
$foo = `bar`
```
These would have been interpreted as strings before this version, but
now they'd be interpreted as external calls. This behavior is consistent
with `let`/`mut` (which is unaffected by this change).
Here is an example of the error:
```
Error: × External command calls must be explicit in assignments
╭─[entry #3:1:8]
1 │ $foo = bar
· ─┬─
· ╰── add a caret (^) before the command name if you intended to run and capture its output
╰────
help: the parsing of assignments was changed in 0.97.0, and this would have previously been treated as a string.
Alternatively, quote the string with single or double quotes to avoid it being interpreted as a command name. This
restriction may be removed in a future release.
```
# Tests + Formatting
Tests added to cover the change. Note made about it being temporary.
Lints from stable or nightly toolchain that may have questionable added
value.
- **Contentious lint to contract into single `if let`**
- **Potential false positive around `AsRef`/`Deref` fun**
- **Doccomment style fixes**
- **Forgotten stuff in `nu-pretty-hex`**
- **Don't `for` around an `Option`**
- and more
I think the suggestions here are a net positive, some of the suggestions
moved into #13498 feel somewhat arbitrary, I also raised
https://github.com/rust-lang/rust-clippy/issues/13188 as the nightly
`byte_char_slices` would require either a global allow or otherwise a
ton of granular allows or possibly confusing bytestring literals.
# Description
This makes assignment operations and `const` behave the same way `let`
and `mut` do, absorbing the rest of the pipeline.
Changes the lexer to be able to recognize assignment operators as a
separate token, and then makes the lite parser continue to push spans
into the same command regardless of any redirections or pipes if an
assignment operator is encountered. Because the pipeline is no longer
split up by the lite parser at this point, it's trivial to just parse
the right hand side as if it were a subexpression not contained within
parentheses.
# User-Facing Changes
Big breaking change. These are all now possible:
```nushell
const path = 'a' | path join 'b'
mut x = 2
$x = random int
$x = [1 2 3] | math sum
$env.FOO = random chars
```
In the past, these would have led to (an attempt at) bare word string
parsing. So while `$env.FOO = bar` would have previously set the
environment variable `FOO` to the string `"bar"`, it now tries to run
the command named `bar`, hence the major breaking change.
However, this is desirable because it is very consistent - if you see
the `=`, you can just assume it absorbs everything else to the right of
it.
# Tests + Formatting
Added tests for the new behaviour. Adjusted some existing tests that
depended on the right hand side of assignments being parsed as
barewords.

# Description
This corrects the parsing of unknown arguments provided to known
externals to behave exactly like external arguments passed to normal
external calls.
I've done this by adding a `SyntaxShape::ExternalArgument` which
triggers the same parsing rules.
Because I didn't like how the highlighting looked, I modified the
flattener to emit `ExternalArg` flat shapes for arguments that have that
syntax shape and are plain strings/globs. This is the same behavior that
external calls have.
Aside from passing the tests, I've also checked manually that the
completer seems to work adequately. I can confirm that specified
positional arguments get completion according to their specified type
(including custom completions), and then anything remaining gets
filepath style completion, as you'd expect from an external command.
Thanks to @OJarrisonn for originally finding this issue.
# User-Facing Changes
- Unknown args are now parsed according to their specified syntax shape,
rather than `Any`. This may be a breaking change, though I think it's
extremely unlikely in practice.
- The unspecified arguments of known externals are now highlighted /
flattened identically to normal external arguments, which makes it more
clear how they're being interpreted, and should help the completer
function properly.
- Known externals now have an implicit rest arg if not specified named
`args`, with a syntax shape of `ExternalArgument`.

# Description
This grew quite a bit beyond its original scope, but I've tried to make
`$in` a bit more consistent and easier to work with.
Instead of the parser generating calls to `collect` and creating
closures, this adds `Expr::Collect` which just evaluates in the same
scope and doesn't require any closure.
When `$in` is detected in an expression, it is replaced with a new
variable (also called `$in`) and wrapped in `Expr::Collect`. During
eval, this expression is evaluated directly, with the input and with
that new variable set to the collected value.
Other than being faster and less prone to gotchas, it also makes it
possible to typecheck the output of an expression containing `$in`,
which is nice. This is a breaking change though, because of the lack of
the closure and because now typechecking will actually happen. Also, I
haven't attempted to typecheck the input yet.
The IR generated now just looks like this:
```gas
collect %in
clone %tmp, %in
store-variable $in, %tmp
# %out <- ...expression... <- %in
drop-variable $in
```
(where `$in` is the local variable created for this collection, and not
`IN_VARIABLE_ID`)
which is a lot better than having to create a closure and call `collect
--keep-env`, dealing with all of the capture gathering and allocation
that entails. Ideally we can also detect whether that input is actually
needed, so maybe we don't have to clone, but I haven't tried to do that
yet. Theoretically now that the variable is a unique one every time, it
should be possible to give it a type - I just don't know how to
determine that yet.
On top of that, I've also reworked how `$in` works in pipeline-initial
position. Previously, it was a little bit inconsistent. For example,
this worked:
```nushell
> 3 | do { let x = $in; let y = $in; print $x $y }
3
3
```
However, this causes a runtime variable not found error on the second
`$in`:
```nushell
> def foo [] { let x = $in; let y = $in; print $x $y }; 3 | foo
Error: nu:🐚:variable_not_found
× Variable not found
╭─[entry #115:1:35]
1 │ def foo [] { let x = $in; let y = $in; print $x $y }; 3 | foo
· ─┬─
· ╰── variable not found
╰────
```
I've fixed this by making the first element `$in` detection *always*
happen at the block level, so if you use `$in` in pipeline-initial
position anywhere in a block, it will collect with an implicit
subexpression around the whole thing, and you can then use that `$in`
more than once. In doing this I also rewrote `parse_pipeline()` and
hopefully it's a bit more straightforward and possibly more efficient
too now.
Finally, I've tried to make `let` and `mut` a lot more straightforward
with how they handle the rest of the pipeline, and using a redirection
with `let`/`mut` now does what you'd expect if you assume that they
consume the whole pipeline - the redirection is just processed as
normal. These both work now:
```nushell
let x = ^foo err> err.txt
let y = ^foo out+err>| str length
```
It was previously possible to accomplish this with a subexpression, but
it just seemed like a weird gotcha that you couldn't do it. Intuitively,
`let` and `mut` just seem to take the whole line.
- closes#13137
# User-Facing Changes
- `$in` will behave more consistently with blocks and closures, since
the entire block is now just wrapped to handle it if it appears in the
first pipeline element
- `$in` no longer creates a closure, so what can be done within an
expression containing `$in` is less restrictive
- `$in` containing expressions are now type checked, rather than just
resulting in `any`. However, `$in` itself is still `any`, so this isn't
quite perfect yet
- Redirections are now allowed in `let` and `mut` and behave pretty much
how you'd expect
