# 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.

Trying to add a little delay.
# Description
Yet another attempt to fix the `stress_internals::test_wrong_version()`
test...
This time I think it's probably because we are getting a broken pipe
write error when we try to send `Hello` or perhaps something after it,
because the pipe has already been closed by the reader when it saw the
invalid version. In that case, an error should be available in state. It
probably makes more sense to send that back to the user rather than an
unhelpful I/O error.

# Description
I thought about bringing `nu_plugin_msgpack` in, but that is MPL with a
clause that prevents other licenses, so rather than adapt that code I
decided to take a crack at just doing it straight from `rmp` to `Value`
without any `rmpv` in the middle. It seems like it's probably faster,
though I can't say for sure how much with the plugin overhead.
@IanManske I started on a `Read` implementation for `RawStream` but just
specialized to `from msgpack` here, but I'm thinking after release maybe
we can polish it up and make it a real one. It works!

# Description
Continuing from #12568, this PR further reduces the size of `Expr` from
64 to 40 bytes. It also reduces `Expression` from 128 to 96 bytes and
`Type` from 32 to 24 bytes.
This was accomplished by:
- for `Expr` with multiple fields (e.g., `Expr::Thing(A, B, C)`),
merging the fields into new AST struct types and then boxing this struct
(e.g. `Expr::Thing(Box<ABC>)`).
- replacing `Vec<T>` with `Box<[T]>` in multiple places. `Expr`s and
`Expression`s should rarely be mutated, if at all, so this optimization
makes sense.
By reducing the size of these types, I didn't notice a large performance
improvement (at least compared to #12568). But this PR does reduce the
memory usage of nushell. My config is somewhat light so I only noticed a
difference of 1.4MiB (38.9MiB vs 37.5MiB).

# Description
The local socket PR introduced a `Waitable` type, which could either
hold a value or be waited on until a value is available. Unlike a
channel, it would always return that value once set.
However, one issue with this design was that there was no way to detect
whether a value would ever be written. This splits the writer into a
different type `WaitableMut`, so that when it is dropped, waiting
threads can fail (because they'll never get a value).

# Description
This should fix the sometimes failing wrong version test for
stress_internals.
The plugin interface state stores an error if some kind of critical
error happened, and this error should be propagated to any future
operations on the interface, but this wasn't being propagated to plugin
calls that were already waiting.
During plugin registration, the wrong version error needs to be received
as a response to the `get_signature()` to show up properly, but this
would only happen if `get_signature()` started after the `Hello` was
already received and processed. That would be a race condition, which
this commit solves.

# Description
Adds a new keyword, `plugin use`. Unlike `register`, this merely loads
the signatures from the plugin cache file. The file is configurable with
the `--plugin-config` option either to `nu` or to `plugin use` itself,
just like the other `plugin` family of commands. At the REPL, one might
do this to replace `register`:
```nushell
> plugin add ~/.cargo/bin/nu_plugin_foo
> plugin use foo
```
This will not work in a script, because `plugin use` is a keyword and
`plugin add` does not evaluate at parse time (intentionally). This means
we no longer run random binaries during parse.
The `--plugins` option has been added to allow running `nu` with certain
plugins in one step. This is used especially for the `nu_with_plugins!`
test macro, but I'd imagine is generally useful. The only weird quirk is
that it has to be a list, and we don't really do this for any of our
other CLI args at the moment.
`register` now prints a deprecation parse warning.
This should fix#11923, as we now have a complete alternative to
`register`.
# User-Facing Changes
- Add `plugin use` command
- Deprecate `register`
- Add `--plugins` option to `nu` to replace a common use of `register`
# Tests + Formatting
I think I've tested it thoroughly enough and every existing test passes.
Testing nu CLI options and alternate config files is a little hairy and
I wish there were some more generic helpers for this, so this will go on
my TODO list for refactoring.

# Description
This adds an extension trait to `Result` that wraps errors in `Spanned`,
saving the effort of calling `.map_err(|err| err.into_spanned(span))`
every time. This will hopefully make it even more likely that someone
will want to use a spanned `io::Error` and make it easier to remove the
impl for `From<io::Error> for ShellError` because that doesn't have span
information.
# Description
Fixes: #11351
And comment here is also fixed:
https://github.com/nushell/nushell/issues/11351#issuecomment-1996191537
The panic can happened if we pipe a variable to a custom command which
recursively called itself inside another block.
TBH, I think I figure out how it works to panic, but I'm not sure if
there is a potention issue if nushell don't mutate a block in such case.

# Description
Adds two new types in `nu-engine` for evaluating closures: `ClosureEval`
and `ClosureEvalOnce`. This removed some duplicate code and centralizes
our logic for setting up, running, and cleaning up closures. For
example, in the future if we are able to reduce the cloning necessary to
run a closure, then we only have to change the code related to these
types.
`ClosureEval` and `ClosureEvalOnce` are designed with a builder API.
`ClosureEval` is used to run a closure multiple times whereas
`ClosureEvalOnce` is used for a one-shot closure.
# User-Facing Changes
Should be none, unless I messed up one of the command migrations.
Actually, this will fix any unreported environment bugs for commands
that didn't reset the env after running a closure.
# Description
When saving to a file we currently try to check if the data source in
the pipeline metadata is the same as the file we are saving to. If so,
we create an error, since reading and writing to a file at the same time
is currently not supported/handled gracefully. However, there are still
a few instances where this error is not properly triggered, and so this
PR attempts to reduce these cases. Inspired by #12599.
# Tests + Formatting
Added a few tests.
# After Submitting
Some commands still do not properly preserve metadata (e.g., `str trim`)
and so prevent us from detecting this error.
# Description
This pull request provides three new commands:
`polars store-ls` - moved from `polars ls`. It provides the list of all
object stored in the plugin cache
`polars store-rm` - deletes a cached object
`polars store-get` - gets an object from the cache.
The addition of `polars store-get` required adding a reference_count to
cached entries. `polars get` is the only command that will increment
this value. `polars rm` will remove the value despite it's count. Calls
to PolarsPlugin::custom_value_dropped will decrement the value.
The prefix store- was chosen due to there already being a `polars cache`
command. These commands were not made sub-commands as there isn't a way
to display help for sub commands in plugins (e.g. `polars store`
displaying help) and I felt the store- seemed fine anyways.
The output of `polars store-ls` now shows the reference count for each
object.

polars ls has now moved to polars store-ls

# Description
Updates `toolkit.nu` to use `plugin add`.
There's no need to spawn a separate `nu` to do `register` anymore, since
`plugin add` is not a keyword
# Description
The `stress_internals` tests can fail sometimes, but usually not on the
CI, because Nushell exits while the plugin is still trying to read or
maybe write something, leading to a broken pipe.
`nu-plugin` already exits with 1 without printing a message on a
protocol-level I/O error, so this just doing the same thing.
I think there's probably a way to correct the plugin handling so that we
wait for plugins to shut down before exiting and this doesn't happen,
but this is the quick fix in the meantime.

# Description
`Value` describes the types of first-class values that users and scripts
can create, manipulate, pass around, and store. However, `Block`s are
not first-class values in the language, so this PR removes it from
`Value`. This removes some unnecessary code, and this change should be
invisible to the user except for the change to `scope modules` described
below.
# User-Facing Changes
Breaking change: the output of `scope modules` was changed so that
`env_block` is now `has_env_block` which is a boolean value instead of a
`Block`.
# After Submitting

For a long time, I was searching for the `str extract` command to
extract regexes from strings. I often painfully used `str replace -r

Only this morning did I realize that `parse` is what I needed for so
many times, which I had only used for parsing data in tables.
# Description
Fix: #12489
I believe the issue it's because the default value of `NU_LIB_DIRS` and
`NU_PLUGIN_DIRS` is a string, but it should be a list.
So if users don't set up these values in `env.nu`, we will get a
problem.

# Description
in order to change the style of the _serialized_ NUON data,
`nuon::to_nuon` takes three mutually exclusive arguments, `raw: bool`,
`tabs: Option<usize>` and `indent: Option<usize>` 🤔
this begs to use an enumeration with all possible alternatives, right?
this PR changes the signature of `nuon::to_nuon` to use `nuon::ToStyle`
which has three variants
- `Raw`: no newlines
- `Tabs(n: usize)`: newlines and `n` tabulations as indent
- `Spaces(n: usize)`: newlines and `n` spaces as indent
# User-Facing Changes
the signature of `nuon::to_nuon` changes from
```rust
to_nuon(
input: &Value,
raw: bool,
tabs: Option<usize>,
indent: Option<usize>,
span: Option<Span>,
) -> Result<String, ShellError>
```
to
```rust
to_nuon(
input: &Value,
style: ToStyle,
span: Option<Span>

# Description
In conflict with the documentation, the msgpack serializer for plugins
is actually using the compact format, which doesn't name struct fields,
and is instead dependent on their ordering, rendering them as tuples.
This is not a good idea for a robust protocol even if it makes the
serialization and deserialization faster.
I expect this to have some impact on performance, but I think the
robustness is probably worth it.
Deserialization always accepts either format, so this shouldn't cause
too many incompatibilities.
# User-Facing Changes
This does technically change the protocol, but it makes it reflect the
documentation. It shouldn't break deserialization, so plugins shouldn't
necessarily need a recompile.
Performance is likely worse and I should benchmark the difference.

`nu_commands/src/formats/to/nuon.rs` to `nuon/src/from.rs` and
`nuon/src/to.rs`, with minor tweaks to make then standalone functions,
e.g. remove the rest of the command implementations
### TODO
- [x] add tests
- [x] add documentation
# User-Facing Changes
devs will have access to a new crate, `nuon`, and two functions,
`from_nuon` and `to_nuon`
```rust
from_nuon(
input: &str,
span: Option<Span>,
) -> Result<Value, ShellError>
```
```rust
to_nuon(
input: &Value,
raw: bool,
tabs: Option<usize>,
indent: Option<usize>,
span: Option<Span>,
) -> Result<String, ShellError>
```
# Tests + Formatting
i've basically taken all the tests from
`crates/nu-command/tests/format_conversions/nuon.rs` and converted them
to use `from_nuon` and `to_nuon` instead of Nushell commands
- i've created a `nuon_end_to_end` to run both conversions with an
optional middle value to check that all is fine
> **Note**
> the `nuon::tests::read_code_should_fail_rather_than_panic` test does
give different results locally and in the CI...
> i've left it ignored with comments to help future us :)
# After Submitting
mention that in the release notes for sure!!
